🚨🚨Our new paper is out! We discuss the potential of nucleoside supplementation as a treatment for RRM2B.
Many thanks to all that contributed to this research!
🧬 New paper! We nudge the science forward surrounding deoxynucleoside supplementation & mitochondrial DNA depletion syndromes (MDDS). We show, for the first time in vivo, that deoxynucleoside supplementation can mitigate effects of RRM2B mutations.🔗 academic.oup.com/hmg/advance…
