Background and Objectives: Atherosclerosis is one of the main reasons for cardiovascular disease development. This study aimed to analyze the association of mtDNA mutations and atherosclerotic plaques in carotid arteries of patients with atherosclerosis and conditionally healthy study participants from the Novosibirsk region. Methods: PCR fragments of DNA containing the regions of 10 investigated mtDNA mutations were pyrosequenced. The heteroplasmy levels of mtDNA mutations were analyzed using a quantitative method based on pyrosequencing technology developed by M. A. Sazonova and colleagues. Results: In the analysis of samples of patients with atherosclerotic plaques of the carotid arteries and conditionally healthy study participants from the Novosibirsk region, four proatherogenic mutations in the mitochondrial genome (m.5178C>A, m.652delG, m.12315G>A and m.3256C>T) and three antiatherogenic mutations in mtDNA (m.13513G>A, m.652insG, and m.14846G>A) were detected. A west–east gradient was found in the distribution of the mtDNA mutations m.5178C>A, m.3256C>T, m.652insG, and m.13513G>A. Conclusions: Therefore, four proatherogenic mutations in the mitochondrial genome (m.5178C>A, m.652delG, m.12315G>A, and m.3256C>T) and three antiatherogenic mutations in mtDNA (m.13513G>A, m.652insG, and m.14846G>A) were detected in patients with atherosclerotic plaques in their carotid arteries from the Novosibirsk region.
