Whole Exome Sequencing for Mutation Screening in Hemophagocytic Lymphohistiocytosis
Background: Hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) is an immune system disorder characterized by uncontrolled hyper-inflammation owing to hypercytokinemia from the activated but ineffective cytotoxic cells. Establishing a correct diagnosis for HLH patients due to the similarity of this disease with other conditions like malignant lymphoma and leukemia and similarity among its two forms is dif...
متن کاملWhole-exome sequencing as a diagnostic tool for distal renal tubular acidosis.
OBJECTIVE Distal renal tubular acidosis (dRTA) is characterized by metabolic acidosis due to impaired renal acid excretion. The aim of this study was to demonstrate the genetic diagnosis of four children with dRTA through use of whole-exome sequencing. METHODS Two unrelated families were selected; a total of four children with dRTA and their parents, in order to perform whole-exome sequencing...
متن کاملWhole exome sequencing as a diagnostic tool for patients with ciliopathy-like phenotypes
Ciliopathies are a group of rare disorders characterized by a high genetic and phenotypic variability, which complicates their molecular diagnosis. Hence the need to use the latest powerful approaches to faster identify the genetic defect in these patients. We applied whole exome sequencing to six consanguineous families clinically diagnosed with ciliopathy-like disease, and for which mutations...

متن کاملExome Sequencing as a Diagnostic Tool for Pediatric-Onset Ataxia
Ataxia demonstrates substantial phenotypic and genetic heterogeneity. We set out to determine the diagnostic yield of exome sequencing in pediatric patients with ataxia without a molecular diagnosis after standard-of-care assessment in Canada. FORGE (Finding Of Rare disease GEnes) Canada is a nation-wide project focused on identifying novel disease genes for rare pediatric diseases using whole-...
