Findings establish the physiological relevance of the LSP2 promoter, support routine assessment of the mitochondrial genome in inherited kidney disease, and highlight mtDNA variants as an important cause of familial and sporadic tubulointerstitial kidney disease of previously unexplained etiology.
The value of large, well-characterized patient cohorts in identifying modifier loci and advancing knowledge of the mechanisms underlying phenotypic variability in mtDNA disease is highlighted, as each showed the strongest gene-level signals within the linkage region across complementary burden-testing methods.

D diagnosis requires tissue-informed heteroplasmy assessment integrated with phenotype, maternal family history, and functional evidence, and a staged mechanism involving disturbed transfer RNA processing, structure, stability, or aminoacylation is supported.

Findings indicated that the m.A10055G mutation contributed to NSHL pathogenesis by impairing mitochondrial functions, most likely through defective tRNA metabolism and by increasing oxidative stress.

The molecular and functional spectrum of SLC25A4-associated disease is expanded and may inform clinical practice, including genetic interventions such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, premarital genetic screening, targeted genetic counseling, and cascade testing of at-risk family members.
