Alternative titles and symbols : Mitochondrial dna depletion syndrome, encephalomyopathic, with renal tubulopathy,
autosomal recessive;
Included titles and symbols : Mitochondrial dna depletion syndrome 8b (mngie type); Mitochondrial neurogastrointestinal encephalopathy syndrome, rrm2b-related; Mngie, rrm2b-related; MTDPS8B;
Description : Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome-8A is a severe autosomal recessive disorder characterized
by neonatal hypotonia, lactic acidosis, and neurologic deterioration. Renal tubular
involvement may also occur (Bourdon et al., 2007). Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome-8B
is characterized by ophthalmoplegia, ptosis, gastrointestinal dysmotility, cachexia,
peripheral neuropathy, and brain MRI changes, known as the MNGIE phenotype (Shaibani
et al., 2009). For a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of mtDNA depletion syndromes,
see MTDPS1 (603041).;
