Novel frameshift mutation in the KCNQ1 gene responsible for Jervell and Lange-Nielsen syndrome
Objective(s): Jervell and Lange–Nielsen syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in KCNQ1 or KCNE1 genes. The disease is characterized by sensorineural hearing loss and long QT syndrome. Methods: Here we present a 3.5-year-old female patient, an offspring of consanguineous marriage, who had a history of recurrent syncope and congenital sensorineural deafness. The patient ...
متن کاملNext-Generation Sequencing Reveals One Novel Missense Mutation in COL1A2 Gene in an Iranian Family with Osteogenesis imperfecta
Background: Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous disorder characterized by bone loss and bone fragility. The aim of this study was to investigate the variants of three genes involved in the pathogenesis of OI. Methods: Molecular genetic analyses were performed for COL1A1, COL1A2, and CRTAP genes in an Iranian family with OI. The DNA samples were analyzed by...
متن کاملA case of Brugada Syndrome unmasked by a postoperative febrile state
Abstract Background: Brugada Syndrome (BS) is an inherited ion channelopathy characterized by an electrocardiographic (ECG) pattern of a coved type ST segment elevation in right precordial leads with or without right bundle branch block. Case Presentation: A 23-year old male presented with right lower quadrant abdominal pain. Further evaluation revealed a diagnosis of acute appendicitis. The ...
متن کاملNovel Genomic Approach to the Arrhytmogenic Sudden Cardiac Death
Unfortunately, most of the common diseases in cardiology do not show traditional Mendelian genetics, they usually are complex genetic diseases resulting from the combination of multiple heritable and environmental factors. However, one of the cardiology dysfunction that can affect apparently healthy young adults or with any previous heart disease, such as sudden cardiac death (SCD), could be th...
متن کاملUGT1A1 gene linkage analysis: application of polymorphic markers rs4148326/rs4124874 in the Iranian population
Objective(s): Mutations in the UGT1A1 gene are responsible for hyperbilirubinemia syndromes including Crigler-Najjar type 1 and 2 and Gilbert syndrome. In view of the genetic heterogeneity and involvement of large numbers of the disease causing mutations, the application of polymorphic markers in the UGTA1 gene could be useful in molecular diagnosis of the disease. Materials and Methods: In the...
