X-Linked Lymphoproliferative Disease
2B4 is a surface molecule involved in activation of the natural killer (NK) cell-mediated cytotoxicity. It binds a protein termed Src homology 2 domain-containing protein (SH2D1A) or signaling lymphocyte activation molecule (SLAM)-associated protein (SAP), which in turn has been proposed to function as a regulator of the 2B4-associated signal transduction pathway. In this study, we analyzed pat...
متن کاملThe Genetics of Ultra-Rare Renal Disease.
The complement-mediated renal diseases are a group of ultra-rare renal diseases that disproportionately affect children and young adults and frequently lead to irreversible renal failure. Genetic mutations in alternate pathway of complement genes are pathomechanistically involved in a significant number of these unique diseases. Here, we review our current understanding of the role of genetics ...
متن کاملZebrafish models of cerebrovascular disease
Perturbations in cerebral blood flow and abnormalities in blood vessel structure are the hallmarks of cerebrovascular disease. While there are many genetic and environmental factors that affect these entities through a heterogeneous group of disease processes, the ultimate final pathologic insult in humans is defined as a stroke, or damage to brain parenchyma. In the case of ischemic stroke, bl...
متن کاملX-linked congenital Addison's disease.
Two male cousins developed symptoms and signs of Addison's disease at age 3 weeks. The family history indicates that their disorder is inherited as an X-linked recessive.
متن کاملA rare X-linked inherited mucocutaneous syndrome in two siblings.
We report on an 11 year-old boy with dyskeratosis congenita who presented with dystrophic nails, dysphagia, hyperpigmentation and oral leukoplakia. He had a brother who died 14 years earlier with similar presenting symptoms and aplastic anaemia. Genetic studies of our patient demonstrated the presence of a DKC1 mutation and confirmed our diagnosis. Further genetic screening revealed that his mo...
