Chromosomal mapping of the peroneal muscular atrophy (pma) gene in the mouse.

چکیده
We conducted chromosomal mapping of the pma gene that is a causative gene in the peroneal muscular atrophy mouse, which shows a club foot at birth and unusual gait due to a dropped foot in the adult. Linkage analyses using backcross progeny revealed a significant linkage between the pma gene and three microsatellite markers, D5Mit263 at 73 cM, D5Mit141 and D5Mit97 at 74 cM on Chr 5. The gene order was determined as follows: centromere-D5Mit263-[2.65 cM]-D5Mit141-[2.56 cM]-pma-[5.13 cM]-D5Mit97-telomere.

Micro-magnetic resonance imaging and embryological analysis of wild-type and pma mutant mice with clubfoot
Gross similarities between the external appearance of the hind limbs of the peroneal muscle atrophy (pma) mouse mutant and congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV), a human disorder historically referred to as 'clubfoot', suggested that this mutant could be a useful model. We used micro-magnetic resonance imaging to visualize the detailed anatomy of the hind limb defect in mutant pma mice and perf...

A 54-year-old man was diagnosed as having PMA 15 years earlier. His legs had an 'inverted bottle' appearance with marked wasting of the peroneal muscles and bilateral pes cavus. The tendon jerks were absent in the lower limbs whilst those in the upper limbs were diminished. The plantar responses were equivocal. There was no sensory deficit for the appreciation of light touch, pain or temperatur...

Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a genetic disorder which affect nervous system and is characterized with progressive distal motor neuron weakness. The survival motor neuron (SMN) protein level reduces in patients with SMA. Two different genes code survival motor neuron protein in human genome. Skeletal and intercostal muscles denervation lead to weakness, hypotony, hyporeflexia, respiratory fa...
