Genetic etiologies of glaucoma.
Glaucoma can be inherited as a mendelian autosomal-dominant or autosomal-recessive trait, or as a complex multifactorial trait. Genetic approaches have helped define the underlying molecular events responsible for some mendelian forms of the disease and have identified the chromosome locations of genes that are likely to contribute to common complex forms. Future directions include the discover...
متن کاملInm-7: Genetic Etiologies of Premature Ovarian Failure
Premature Ovarian Failure (POF) defined as functional stop of ovaries before the age of 40. It is a common cause of infertility in women that characterized by primary or secondary amenorrhea, high gonadotropin levels and estrogen level declining in patients. Factors that reduce follicle or defect in the follicle growth stimulating mechanism defined as numerous complication factors that they can...
متن کاملA rare complex DNA rearrangement in the murine Steel gene results in exon duplication and a lethal phenotype.
Kit ligand (Kitl), encoded by the Steel (Sl) locus, plays an essential role in hematopoiesis, gametogenesis, and melanogenesis during both embryonic and adult life. We have characterized a new spontaneous mutant of the Sl locus in mice designated KitlSl-20J that arose in the breeding colony at Jackson Laboratories. Heterozygous KitlSl-20J mice display a white belly spot and intercrossing result...
متن کاملUnderstanding the complex etiologies of developmental disorders: behavioral and molecular genetic approaches.
OBJECTIVE This article has 2 primary goals. First, a brief tutorial on behavioral and molecular genetic methods is provided for readers without extensive training in these areas. To illustrate the application of these approaches to developmental disorders, etiologically informative studies of reading disability (RD), math disability (MD), and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) are ...
متن کاملOculocerebrocutaneous syndrome: the brain malformation defines a core phenotype.
BACKGROUND Oculocerebrocutaneous syndrome (OCCS) is characterised by orbital cysts and anophthalmia or microphthalmia, focal aplastic or hypoplastic skin defects, skin appendages, and brain malformations. The eye and skin abnormalities are well described but the neuropathological features less so. To date, 28 patients with an unequivocal diagnosis of OCCS have been reported, with a preponderanc...
