Abstract: (A) Apoptosis assays were conducted by labeling the deoxyribonucleic acid with 5-bromo-2′-deoxyuridine 5′-triphosphate) in heart and liver tissue from the affected patient (family 600, II-16) and control heart samples. A positive control was created by adding 1 μg/μl deoxyribonucleic acids. Apoptotic cells were detected as brown dots. No signs of apoptosis were detected in all tested tissue. (B) Terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase-mediated dUTP nick end labeling staining of fibroblasts and flow cytometry from patient and Ctrl1 and Ctrl3....
