A Novel Homozygous p.L539F Mutation Identified in PINK1 Gene in a Moroccan Patient with Parkinsonism
Parkinson's disease (PD) is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder after Alzheimer's disease. Ten of fifteen causative genes linked to familial forms of PD have been reported to cause autosomal recessive forms. Among them, mutations in the PTEN-induced kinase 1 (PINK1) gene were shown to be responsible for a phenotype characterized by early onset, good response to levodopa, and a ben...
متن کاملParkinsonism in a patient with AIDS.
Since the description of the "shaking palsy" by James Parkinson in 1817, Parkinson's disease (PD) has been established as the most commonextrapyramidal syndromethat has becomebest understood with distinct correlations with the pathology, biochemistry, and therapy. The core syndromeconsists of resting tremor, rigidity, poverty and slowness of voluntary movement, stooped posture, and festination....
متن کاملcombined choroidal neovascularization and hypopituitarism in a patient with homozygous mutation in methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase gene
we report a case of choroidal neovascularization (cnv) secondary to methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (mthfr) gene mutation in a 20-year-old male patient with hypopituitarism. treatment with three consecutive injections of intravitreal ranibizumab (anti-vascular endothelial growth factor) resulted in significant improvement of the patient’s vision and the appearance of the macula. a search ...
متن کاملPatient With Homozygous Familial Hypercholesterolemia
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH), caused by a defect in the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor, results in high plasma concentrations of LDL cholesterol due to both overproduction and delayed catabolism of LDL FH is also associated with significantly lower levels of plasma high density lipoprotein cholesterol and apolipoprotein (apo) A-I in both heterozygous and homozygous patients. Howev...
متن کاملA homozygous parkin p.G284R mutation in a Chinese family with autosomal recessive juvenile parkinsonism.
Autosomal recessive juvenile parkinsonism (AR-JP) is a distinct clinical and neuropathologic entity characterized by early onset parkinsonism and localized neuronal degeneration in the substantia nigra without Lewy bodies. The purpose of this study is to identify the genetic defect in a Chinese pedigree with familial AR-JP and to explore genotype-phenotype correlation. A three-generation Chines...
