Deregulated FGF and homeotic gene expression underlies cerebellar vermis hypoplasia in CHARGE syndrome
Mutations in CHD7 are the major cause of CHARGE syndrome, an autosomal dominant disorder with an estimated prevalence of 1/15,000. We have little understanding of the disruptions in the developmental programme that underpin brain defects associated with this syndrome. Using mouse models, we show that Chd7 haploinsufficiency results in reduced Fgf8 expression in the isthmus organiser (IsO), an e...
متن کاملEnlarged cerebellar vermis in Williams syndrome.
Williams syndrome (WMS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by relative preservations of language ability and facial processing despite deficits in overall intelligence, problem solving, and visuospatial processing. Subjects with WMS also display hypersocial behavior and excessive linguistic affect during conversations and when giving narratives. Neuroimaging studies have shown global redu...

متن کاملMoebius' syndrome with unilateral cerebellar hypoplasia.
A case is reported of a child with Moebius' syndrome who also has unilateral cerebellar hypoplasia. We suggest that this combination of abnormalities could result from a vascular disruption occurring in the basilar artery early in its development.
متن کاملCerebellar vermis hypoplasia - non progressive congenital ataxia: clinical and radiological findings in a pair of siblings.
We describe the clinical and radiological findings of a pair of siblings with cerebellar vermis hypoplasia and compare them with the literature. Both of them present pregnancies and deliveries uneventful and both presented some grade of hypotonia, ataxia, ocular motor abnormalities and mild motor delay and slurred speech. These siblings meet many of the criteria described in non-progressive con...
