EnglishThe knowledge of the haplogroups of the analyzed subjects allows to prevent errors in the analysis of the association between mtDNA variations and some pathologies like diabetes. In this paper a cohort of type 2 diabetic Italian patients with known mitochondrial genetic background (haplogroup) were investigated for the presence in the blood of the 3243A>G mutation and other variants of close to tRNA(Leu(UUR)) gene (16S/ND1 region) of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). The 3243A>G mutation was present in 0.4% of analyzed patients in agreement with the reported frequencies of such mutation in other European groups. This result suggests a limited role for the 3243A>G mutation in the pathogenesis of diabetes also in the Italian population. In the 16S/ND1 region 15 base changes were found.
