摘要
An amount of mitochondrial DNA molecules relative to an amount of nuclear DNA molecules is determined in a biological sample, and the relative amount is used for various purposes, e.g., screening, detection, prognostication or monitoring of various physiological and pathological conditions. As examples, an amount of mitochondrial DNA can be used to estimate a concentration of DNA of a tissue type, such as a fetal DNA concentration, tumor DNA concentration, or a concentration of DNA in the biological sample derived from a non-hematopoietic tissue source. Sequencing techniques can be used to determine a mitochondrial DNA concentration in a sample for an accurate detection of a level of cancer. A level of an auto-immune disease is also determined using a relative amount of mitochondrial DNA molecules compared nuclear DNA molecules.
