molecular genetic diagnosis of canavan disease in iran

canavan disease is a rare, autosomal recessive inherited, neurological disorder, classified as a leukodystrophy. the symptoms of canavan disease appear in early infancy and progress rapidly. most infants with canavan disease appear normal early in life. by three to five months of age, macrocephaly, lack of head control, and developmental delays become apparent. developmental delay becomes more ...

wilson disease and molecular genetic diagnosis

wilson disease is a disorder of copper metabolism that can present with hepatic, neurologic, or psychiatric disturbances, or a combination of these, in individuals ranging from age three years to over 50 years. the primary consequence for most of those with wd is liver disease, appearing in late childhood or early adolescence as acute hepatitis, liver failure, or progressive chronic liver disea...

Clinical and Molecular Genetic Analysis of Iranian Patients with Neonatal Diabetes demonstrating Mutations in KCNJ11 gene

Abstract We screened the KCNJ11 gene from 35 individuals clinically diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus under the age of 6 months in 3 years duration. Six different heterozygous missense mutations were found in 7 of the 35 probands, which accounted for 20% of all individuals. A novel mutation W68R (No Locus, GU170814; 2009) was identified in the kir6.2, the pore-forming subunit of the KATP ...
