Outline of Final Research Achievements |
First we performed genetic analysis to sudden unexpected death in infancy cases. With using next generation sequencer, we found a genetic variant which is often detected in sudden unexpected death in infancy cases. Second we investigated the mechanism of Bezafibrate treatment to mitochondrial disorder model mouse. In the present study we found the relationship between sudden unexpected death in infancy and metabolic diseases.
