Background: Iron-sulfur cluster assembly 2 (ISCA2) deficiency is linked to an autosomal recessive disorder known as multiple mitochondrial dysfunctions syndrome 4 (MMDS4). This disorder is characterized by leukodystrophy and neuroregression. Currently, most of the reported patients are from Saudi Arabia.

Recently, a non-apoptotic cell death pathway that is dependent on the presence of copper ions was proposed, named as cuproptosis. Cuproptosis have been found to have a strong association with the clinical progression and prognosis of several cancers. Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSC) are among the most common malignant tumors, with a 5-year relative survival rate ranging between 40% and 50%.

The importance of mitochondria in mammalian cells is widely known. Several biochemical reactions and pathways take place within mitochondria: among them, there are those involving the biogenesis of the iron-sulfur (Fe-S) clusters. The latter are evolutionarily conserved, ubiquitous inorganic cofactors, performing a variety of functions, such as electron transport, enzymatic catalysis, DNA maintenance, and gene expression regulation.

Multiple mitochondrial dysfunction syndrome (MMDS) refers to a class of mitochondrial diseases caused by nuclear gene mutations, which usually begins in early infancy and is classically characterized by markedly impaired neurological development, generalized muscle weakness, lactic acidosis, and hyperglycinemia, cavitating leukoencephalopathy, respiratory failure, as well as early fatality resulted from dysfunction of energy metabolism in multiple systems. So far, six types of MMDS have been identified based on different genotypes, which are caused by mutations in NFU1, BOLA3, IBA57, ISCA2, ISCA1 and PMPCB, respectively. IBA57 encodes a protein involved in the mitochondrial Fe/S cluster assembly process, which plays a vital role in the activity of multiple mitochondrial enzymes.
