Identification of a Novel Mutation in CNNM4 Gene in an Iranian Family with Jalili Syndrome
Background and Objectives: Jalili syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder, which so far, only 33 families with this disorder have been reported worldwide. Patients with this disease simultaneously develop cone-rod retinal dystrophy (CRD) and amelogenesis imperfecta (AI). In this study, a mutation causing Jalili syndrome, was investigated in an Iranian family. Case Report: The...
متن کاملIdentification of a Novel CLCNKB Mutation in an Iranian Family with Bartter Syndrome Type 3.
Bartter syndrome (BS) is a group of uncommon genetic disorders of reabsorption of salt in the cortical thick ascending limb (TAL) of the Henle's loop, typically distinguished by metabolic alkalosis, salt loss, hypokalemia, hyperreninemic hyperaldosteronism and normal blood pressure. Bartter syndrome type 3, recognized as a classic BS (CBS), occurs because of mutations in CLCNKB gene. We enroll...
متن کاملSchmidt's syndrome in a Saudi family.
We present 3 patients from a Saudi family who are presented with polyglandular autoimmune syndrome type 2. They have Addison's disease with either autoimmune thyroid disease or insulin dependent diabetic mellitus. Although this syndrome is rare, the incidence among Saudi Arabia or the Arab population is not known.
متن کاملA novel mutation in NPHS2 causing nephrotic syndrome in a Saudi Arabian family
We report a consanguineous family from Saudi Arabia with three affected children presenting with infantile nephrotic syndrome. In order to provide a molecular diagnosis, a genome-wide SNP analysis of the affected patients was performed. We identified a region of homozygosity on chromosome 1, containing the NPHS2 gene. Direct sequencing, by exon PCR, of NPHS2 identified a homozygous nucleotide c...
متن کاملMSX1 Mutation in Witkop Syndrome; A Case Report
The Witkop syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant disorder characterized by the absence of several teeth and abnormalities of the nails. This is the first report of a rare genetic tooth and nail syndrome diagnosed in a 2.5-year-old boy with early exfoliation of the primary canine, absence of the primary incisors, and nail dysplasia. A homozygous mutation was identified in 3’-UTR of MSX1 gene in ...
