A novel mutation in the human mineralocorticoid receptor gene in a Japanese family with autosomal-dominant pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1
Pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1 (PHA1) is a rare disease that manifests in infancy with hyponatremia, hyperkalemia, and metabolic acidosis, regardless of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) hyperactivity. PHA1 has autosomal recessive systemic and autosomal dominant renal forms. The systemic form of PHA1 is characterized by severe resistance to aldosterone in multiple organs, including the kidney, col...
متن کاملA case of pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1 with a mutation in the mineralocorticoid receptor gene
Pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1 (PHA1) is a rare form of mineralocorticoid resistance characterized in newborns by salt wasting with dehydration, hyperkalemia and failure to thrive. This disease is heterogeneous in etiology and includes autosomal dominant PHA1 owing to mutations of the NR3C2 gene encoding the mineralocorticoid receptor, autosomal recessive PHA1 due to mutations of the epithelial...
متن کاملAutosomal dominant pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1 with a novel splice site mutation in MR gene
BACKGROUND Autosomal dominant pseudohypoaldosteronism type 1 (PHA1) is a rare inherited condition that is characterized by renal resistance to aldosterone as well as salt wasting, hyperkalemia, and metabolic acidosis. Renal PHA1 is caused by mutations of the human mineralcorticoid receptor gene (MR), but it is a matter of debate whether MR mutations cause mineralcorticoid resistance via haploin...
متن کاملMutation analysis of connexin 50 gene among Iranian families with autosomal dominant cataracts
Objective(s): Childhood cataract is a genetically heterogeneous eye disorder that results in visual impairment. The aim of this study was to identify the genetic mutations of connexin 50 gene among Iranian families suffered from autosomal dominant congenital cataracts (ADCC). Materials and Methods: Families, having at least two members with bilateral familial congenital cataract, were selected ...
متن کاملA Novel Missense Mutation in the ALDH13 Gene Causes Anophthalmia in Two Unrelated Iranian Consanguineous Families
Anophthalmia or microphthalmia (A/M) is a rare group of congenital/developmental ocular malformations, characterized by absent or small eye within the orbit affecting one or both eyes. It has complex etiology with chromosomal, monogenic with high heterogeneity, and environmental causes. We performed genome SNP-array analysis followed by autozygosity mapping and sequencing in the members o...
