Study Design
11 Japanese centenarians and 43 controls were sequenced to identify the substitution differences between centenarians and controls. Then the identified variants were examined in 37 centenarians and 252 healthy controls.
Conclusions
All tested centenarians with both Mt8414T and Mt3010A carried Mt5178A. Mt5178A was related to longevity, and Mt5178C carriers were more susceptible to adult-onset diseases than those with Mt5178A.
