Spectrum of hemojuvelin gene mutations in 1q-linked juvenile hemochromatosis.
Juvenile or type 2 hemochromatosis (JH) is transmitted as a recessive trait that leads to severe iron overload and organ damage typically before age 30 years. Linkage to a locus on chromosome 1q has been found in most patients with JH. The recently identified causal gene encodes hemojuvelin, a protein with a proposed crucial role in iron metabolism. A second, rare type of JH, with clinical expr...
متن کاملKRAS and BRAF mutations in Iranian colorectal cancer patients: A systematic review and meta-analysis
Background: Mutations in the EGFR signaling pathway play an important role in the development of colorectal cancer (CRC). Mutations in these genes, like KRAS and BRAF, affect the treatment strategies and associated with poor prognosis and relative resistance to anti-EGFR therapies. Our aim was to conduct a systematic and meta-analysis on all studies that have been conducted on the prevalence of...
متن کاملHemojuvelin (HJV)-associated hemochromatosis: analysis of HJV and HFE mutations and iron overload in three families.
Juvenile hemochromatosis is a severe form of hereditary iron overload. It can be caused by mutations in either hepcidin or hemojuvelin genes. In this study we identified the molecular basis of juvenile hemochromatosis in three Australian families and assessed the role of potential modifying genes in individuals carrying HFE mutations.
متن کاملGenetic abnormalities and juvenile hemochromatosis: mutations of the HJV gene encoding hemojuvelin.
Juvenile hemochromatosis is an early-onset form of iron storage disease characterized by hypogonadotrophic hypogonadism and cardiomyopathy. Recently, the putative causative gene (LOC148738) encoding a protein designated hemojuvelin was cloned. The previously proposed designation of this gene as HFE2 is contrary to established convention, because it is not a member of the HFE family. We suggest ...
