Progeroid Syndrome and Mutation in LMNA Gene: Report of Two Cases from Iran
Two Iranian cases with very rare progeroid syndrome are reported. The first is a 24-year-old girl who has been healthy till her 13th birthday. From that time she has been suffering from a progressive generalized and multi-systemic illness. The cardinal clinical findings were growth retardation, subcutaneous fat loss, skin dryness and wrinkling, scattered focal sclerodermoid-like changes, promin...
متن کاملCoffin-Lowry Syndrome: The First Molecularly Confirmed Report in Iran
Coffin-Lowry syndrome (CLS) is an X-linked disorder, which affects hemizygous males more severely than females. It is characterized by mental retardation, short stature, head and facial abnormalities, skeletal anomalies and developmental delays. The signs and symptoms vary in different people. We report a 14-year-old male patient, diagnosed with CLS based on his clinical features. Genetic testi...
متن کاملNovel 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 کاملPathology versus molecular genetics: (re)defining the spectrum of Alport syndrome
Malone et al. performed next-generation sequencing on 70 families with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) and discovered that 10% had variants in surprising 'old' genes, COL4A3 and COL4A4, which are involved in Alport syndrome and thin basement membrane nephropathy. These data show that a subset of renal manifestations associated with COL4A3 or COL4A4 variants cannot be distinguished fro...
متن کاملA genetic Assay of Three Patients in the Same Family with Holt-Oram Syndrome; a Case Report
Holt-Oram syndrome (HOS) is a developmental disorder inherited in an autosomal-dominant pattern. Affected organs are the heart and forelimbs with upper extremity skeletal defects and congenital heart malformation. In this study we present three cases of HOS in the same family. In one of these three individuals we detected a transition of C to T (CTG-GTT, V205V) in exon 7 of the TBX5 gene. This ...
