Distinct neurological disorders with ATP1A3 mutations.
Genetic research has shown that mutations that modify the protein-coding sequence of ATP1A3, the gene encoding the α3 subunit of Na(+)/K(+)-ATPase, cause both rapid-onset dystonia parkinsonism and alternating hemiplegia of childhood. These discoveries link two clinically distinct neurological diseases to the same gene, however, ATP1A3 mutations are, with one exception, disease-specific. Althoug...
متن کاملThe neurological presentation of ceruloplasmin gene mutations.
Aceruloplasminemia is an autosomal recessive disorder of iron metabolism resulting from mutations of the ceruloplasmin gene. To better define the neurological phenotype of aceruloplasminemia we reviewed reports of published cases and sought details of unpublished ones. We identified 32 published reports and 1 unpublished case. The age at diagnosis ranged from 16 to 71 years with a mean of 51. F...
متن کاملNeurological diseases caused by ion-channel mutations.
During the past decade, mutations in several ion-channel genes have been shown to cause inherited neurological diseases. This is not surprising given the large number of different ion channels and their prominent role in signal processing. Biophysical studies of mutant ion channels in vitro allow detailed investigations of the basic mechanism underlying these 'channelopathies'. A full understan...

n engl j med 368;26 nejm.org june 27, 2013 2532 of a meta-analysis of studies of the effect of reduced dietary salt on the incidence of cardiovascular events and death.1 The authors of the Cochrane report wrote that there was “no strong evidence of benefit.” In a summary statement, we wrote that this particular Cochrane analysis concluded that reducing dietary salt intake did not decrease the r...
متن کاملAffecting the Phenotype of gylbS3FInduced Mutations
The suppressor of Hairy-wing [su(Hw)] protein mediates the mutagenic effect of the gypsy retrotransposon by repressing the function of transcriptional enhancers located distally from the promoter with respect to the position of the su(Hw)-binding region. Mutations in a second gene, modzjier of mdg4, also s e c t the gypsyinduced phenotype. Two major effects of the mod(mdg4)'"' mutation can be d...
