AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

There is a need for improved diagnostic methods related to mitochondrial diseases, specifically for reliable biomarkers that allow for accurate diagnosis, monitoring of disease progression, and assessment of treatment efficacy.

Method used

The use of signalling lipids, such as 15-HETE, 5-HETE, 15-HETrE, 5-HETrE, and 12-13-DiHOME, as biomarkers to assess mitochondrial disease severity by determining their amounts in samples from subjects and comparing them to reference values.

Benefits of technology

Provides surprisingly accurate assessment of mitochondrial disease severity and treatment efficacy, correlating biomarker levels with clinical scales like NMDAS, enabling personalized treatment approaches.

Abstract

The invention relates to biomarkers for mitochondrial disease. Signalling lipids were identified as having good correlations with disease severity. Several of these biomarkers were found to correlate with treatment efficacy. Signalling lipids such as 15-hydroxy-5Z,8Z,11Z,13E-eicosatetraenoic acid showed a positive correlation with disease severity and showed a corresponding decrease after treatment of the disease.
