Genotype-phenotype relationship in 12 patients carrying cystic fibrosis mutation R334W.
We present a phenotype-genotype correlation analysis in 12 patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) carrying the mutation R334W in the CFTR gene. The clinical data obtained for this group were compared with the clinical data of deltaF508/deltaF508 patients. Current age and age at diagnosis were significantly higher in the R334W mutation group (p=0.028 and p=0.0001). We found a lower rate of Pseudomon...
متن کاملGenotype-phenotype relationship in Iranian patients with cystic fibrosis.
BACKGROUND/AIMS Cystic fibrosis (CF), the most common hereditary, life-threatening disease, is caused by a mutation in the CFTR gene. Because different mutations can affect clinical manifestations of patients, this study was conducted to investigate the possible genotype-phenotype relationship in a group of Iranian patients with CF. MATERIALS AND METHODS This case-series study was conducted i...
متن کاملCystic fibrosis from genotype to phenotype: review article
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is the most common autosomal recessive genetic disease, which is caused by defection in the Cystic Fibrosis Transmembrane Conductance Regulator (CFTR) gene. CFTR gene codes chloride channels to modulate the homeostasis of epithelial environments. Defective CFTR affects various organs such as the lungs, pancreas, intestine, liver and skin; however, lung impairment is the mai...
متن کاملCystic fibrosis mice carrying the missense mutation G551D replicate human genotype-phenotype correlations.
We have generated a mouse carrying the human G551D mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator gene (CFTR) by a one-step gene targeting procedure. These mutant mice show cystic fibrosis pathology but have a reduced risk of fatal intestinal blockage compared with 'null' mutants, in keeping with the reduced incidence of meconium ileus in G551D patients. The G551D mutant mi...
متن کاملGenotype/phenotype correlation of the G85E mutation in a large cohort of cystic fibrosis patients.
In this European study, the phenotype in 68 patients, homozygous or compound heterozygous for the G85E mutation, was investigated. Each index case was compared with two cystic fibrosis (CF) patients from the same clinic, matched for age and sex: one with pancreatic sufficiency (PS) and one with pancreatic insufficiency (PI). When comparing 31 G85E/F508del and F508del/F508del patients, there wer...
