Abstract

In MELAS, taurine modification defect in the anticodon of mitochondrial leucine tRNA causes codon translation failure. An investigator-started clinical trials of high-dose taurine therapy, that showed its efficacy in preventing stroke-like episodes, and improving the taurine modification rate. The drug was found to be safe. Taurine has been approved as a drug covered by public insurance for prevention of stroke-like episodes since 2019. Recently, L-arginine hydrochloride has also been approved for off-label use as a treatment for both acute and intermittent stages of stroke-like episodes.
