Decreased Reactive Oxygen Species Production in Cells with Mitochondrial Haplogroups Associated with Longevity
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is highly polymorphic, and its variations in humans may contribute to individual differences in function. Zhang and colleagues found a strikingly higher frequency of a C150T transition in the D-loop of mtDNA from centenarians and twins of an Italian population, and also dem...
