A novel missense mutation in the CYLD gene in a Spanish family with multiple familial trichoepithelioma.

چکیده
B rooke-Spiegler syndrome (BSS) includes the combination of spiradenomas, cylindromas, and trichoepitheliomas. It has been postulated that BSS results from defects in the regulation of putative stem cells of the folliculosebaceous-apocrine unit. This follicular dysregulation may give rise to 3 different genodermatoses: familial cylindromatosis (FC), multiple familial trichoepithelioma (MFT), or the classic triad of BSS.

Trichoepithelioma is a benign neoplasm that primarily shows follicular germinative differentiation. Classic trichoepithelioma typically presents as a skin-colored papule or nodule on the face or upper trunk; lesions have a predilection for the nose. Trichoepithelioma can be sporadic or familial and solitary or multiple. Most previously reported multiple trichoepithelioma cases are familial, and...
متن کاملMultiple familial trichoepithelioma caused by mutations in the cylindromatosis tumor suppressor gene.
The recessive oncogene cylindromatosis (CYLD) mapping on 16q12-q13 is generally implicated in familial cylindromatosis, whereas a gene region for multiple familial trichoepithelioma has been assigned to 9p21. Markers from both chromosome intervals were subjected to linkage analysis in a large family with multiple hereditary trichoepithelioma (TE) from Algeria. Linkage to 9p21 was excluded, wher...
متن کاملA Novel Missense Mutation in CLCN1 Gene in a Family with Autosomal Recessive Congenital Myotonia
Congenital recessive myotonia is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in CLCN1, which codes for the main skeletal muscle chloride channel ClC-1. More than 120 mutations have been found in this gene. The main feature of this disorder is muscle membrane hyperexcitability. Here, we report a 59-year male patient suffering from congenital myotonia. He had transient generalized myotonia, which...

Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is an autosomal co-dominant disorder of lipid metabolism, caused by mutations in LDL receptor gene. The penetrance of FH is almost 100%, meaning that half of the offspring of affected parents born with disease. The patients are at risk of premature coronary heart disease (CHD). There is no report about the molecular basis of FH in Iran. Identification of mutat...

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...
