Simplified qPCR method for detecting excessive mtDNA damage induced by exogenous factors

Highlights • Set of primers allows to determine specific sites of damage in mice mtDNA has been developed. • Method of isolation of the mtDNA from mice tissues has been modified. • In vitro hydrogen-peroxide-induced damage of mtDNA correlated with GTGR-sequence-enriched segments. • Single rotenone i...

Zusammenfassung:Highlights • Set of primers allows to determine specific sites of damage in mice mtDNA has been developed. • Method of isolation of the mtDNA from mice tissues has been modified. • In vitro hydrogen-peroxide-induced damage of mtDNA correlated with GTGR-sequence-enriched segments. • Single rotenone injection caused strong damage to all segments of mtDNA in the midbrain but not in the brain cortex.
