Fragile (X)(q27) sites in a pedigree with female carriers showing mild to severe mental retardation.
A pedigree showing the fragile site at Xq27 in a severely retarded female and in other less retarded carriers is described. Two of the four moderately retarded males with the fra(X)(q27) show macro-orchidism, and a variety of other features usually used to support the effects of the fra(X)(q27) are also inconsistent. A second fragile site at (10)(q23) is also present and in the two oldest femal...
متن کاملFibromyalgia in fragile X mental retardation 1 gene premutation carriers.
OBJECTIVE FM is a disorder of altered pain regulation and is characterized by pain, fatigue, poor sleep and psychological impairments; thus, it is classified as a central sensitivity syndrome. Female carriers of a premutation in the fragile X mental retardation 1 (FMR1) gene frequently have widespread musculoskeletal pain and sometimes have been diagnosed with FM, especially if they have the mo...
متن کاملDiffusion tensor imaging in male premutation carriers of the fragile X mental retardation gene.
Older male premutation carriers of the FMR1 gene are associated with the risk of developing a late-onset neurodegenerative disorder, fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome. Although previous postmortem and in vivo magnetic resonance imaging studies have indicated white matter pathology, the regional selectivity of abnormalities, as well as their relationship with molecular variables of the...
متن کاملA Rare Variant in PGAP2 Causes Autosomal Recessive Hyperphosphatasia with Mental Retardation Syndrome, with a Mild Phenotype in Heterozygous Carriers
Mutations in genes involved in the biosynthesis of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor cause autosomal recessive glycosylation defects, with a wide phenotypic spectrum of intellectual disability, seizures, minor facial dysmorphism, hypotonia, and elevated serum alkaline phosphatase. We now describe consanguineous Bedouin kindred presenting with an autosomal recessive syndrome of intel...
متن کاملAetiology of mild mental retardation.
A clinical and family study was carried out in 169 children attending schools for the mildly mentally retarded in Southampton to assess the prevalence of recognised medical risk factors; 71 children (42%) had such risk factors. These were prenatal in 22, perinatal in 41, and postnatal in eight. Risk factors of possible, but less certain, significance were found in a further 63 children (37%). I...
