Molecular genetics of inherited eye disorders.
In the past 10 y, there have been considerable advances in the mapping, isolation, and characterization of many genes for important ocular conditions: retinitis pigmentosa, Norrie disease, Waardenburg syndrome, choroideremia, aniridia, retinoblastoma, and others. The candidate gene approach has now supplemented classical linkage studies and positional cloning in the investigation of ocular diso...
متن کاملGenetics of inherited platelet disorders.
The current review describes inherited platelet disorders, illustrates their clinical phenotype and molecular genetic defects. Platelets are the key molecules mediating haemostasis via adhesion, activation and clot formation at the site of injury. The inherited platelet disorders can be classified according to their platelet defects: receptor/cytoskeleton defects, secretion disorder, and signal...
متن کاملGenetics of inherited primary arrhythmia disorders
A sudden unexplained death is felt to be due to a primary arrhythmic disorder when no structural heart disease is found on autopsy, and there is no preceding documentation of heart disease. In these cases, death is presumed to be secondary to a lethal and potentially heritable abnormality of cardiac ion channel function. These channelopathies include congenital long QT syndrome, catecholaminerg...
متن کاملMolecular genetics of inherited antithrombin III deficiencies.
The cloning of antithrombin III (ATIII) complementary deoxyribonucleic acids and the determination of the ATIII gene structure have permitted a systematic evaluation of the molecular basis for inherited ATIII deficiencies. Sixteen kindreds with the most common form of the deficiency, in which plasma ATIII antigen levels and activity are proportionately reduced, were studied. Two polymorphic deo...
متن کاملGenetic Eye Diseases: Retinitis Pigmentosa and Other Inherited Eye Disorders
This volume should be available to all clinicians caring for patients with this confusing group of disorders. Hematologists, geneticists, general surgeons, and pediatricians will find it of great value. Investigators whose field of interest includes the lysosomal storage diseases and the function of lysosomal hydrolases will also find it of value, particularly from the methodological point of v...
