Mutations in theCOL4A4 and COL4A3 genes cause familial benign hematuria.
Familial benign hematuria (FBH) is a common autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the presence of persistent or recurrent hematuria. The clinical and pathologic features of this syndrome resemble those of early Alport syndrome (AS), and for this reason a common molecular defect has been proposed. The COL4A3/4 genes seem to be involved in both autosomal AS and FBH. This study involves a l...
متن کاملFamilial hypobetalipoproteinemia: a review.
We review the genetics and pathophysiology of familial hypobetalipoproteinemia (FHBL), a mildly symptomatic genetically heterogeneous autosomal trait. The minority of human FHBL is caused by truncation-specifying mutations of the APOB gene on chromosome 2. In seven families, linkage to chromosome 2 is absent, linkage is instead to chromosome 3 (3p21). In others, linkage is absent to both APOB a...
متن کاملBenign Familial Hematuria due to Mutation of the Type IV Collagen a 4 Gene
Benign familial hematuria (BFH) is characterized by autosomal dominant inheritance, thinning of the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) and normal renal function. It is frequent in patients with persistent microscopic hematuria, but cannot be clinically differentiated from the initial stages of Alport syndrome, a severe GBM disorder which progresses to renal failure. We present here linkage of b...
متن کاملFamilial intracranial aneurysms. A review.
BACKGROUND A familial occurrence of intracranial aneurysms is defined by the presence of such aneurysms in two or more first to third-degree family members. Families with two affected members may represent accidental aggregation. Other families show a frequency compatible with an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance. A genetic basis is also suggested by the younger average age of familial cas...
متن کاملFamilial hypercholesterolemia: a case report
Abstract Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is a hereditary dislipidemia. Patients present with extremely high level of low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), which is due to mutation in the gene of LDL receptor. Homozygous patients (HoFH) whose incidence is 1 in 1.000.000 are at high risk of premature aortic valve stenosis, and coronary artery atherosclerosis. In homozygous individual...
