    Arata et al. (2006) concluded that the sites of pathology in this group of patients were in the cerebrum and spinal cord, including the posterior horn and spinocerebellar tracts, instead of the cerebellum proper. ... Ghetti et al. (1996) noted that abnormal PRNP truncation at a similar site (between residues 144 and 150) occurs in GSS variants in which the amyloid protein has been analyzed, suggesting that this truncated PrP peptide is important for amyloid formation. ...

    • Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker Disease Gard
      Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker disease (GSS) is a type of prion disease . Prion diseases are a group of conditions that affect the nervous system. The main feature of GSS is a progressive degeneration of the cerebellum (a part of the brain that controls coordination, balance, equilibrium and muscle tone ), as well as different degrees of dementia. Signs and symptoms generally develop between ages 35 and 50 years and may include weakness in the legs, poor reflexes, abnormal sensations, progressive ataxia, cognitive dysfunction, slurred speech, and spasticity. On average, people affected by GSS survive approximately 60 months (range 2 to 10 years) following diagnosis.
    • Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker Syndrome Orphanet
      Gerstmann-Straussler-Scheinker syndrome (GSSS) is a particular and rare form of human transmissible spongiform encephalopathy (TSE) due to a defective gene encoding the prion protein ( PRNP gene) and marked by particular multicentric amyloid plaques in the brain. Clinical description The codon 102 mutation is the most frequent, as it can be found in several European countries and in Japan. It causes the ataxic form of GSSS: cerebellar syndrome at onset, followed by oculomotor, pyramidal and intellectual signs. Death occurs anywhere between 1 and 11 years after onset. Amyloid plaques can be found mainly in the cerebellum. The codon 117 mutation has been described in 2 families (German and Alsacian); it causes dementia with pyramidal or pseudobulbar signs.

    This is the main cause of severe complications and death in PNH. These may develop in common sites ( deep vein thrombosis of the leg and resultant pulmonary embolism when these clots break off and enter the lungs), but in PNH blood clots may also form in more unusual sites: the hepatic vein (causing Budd-Chiari syndrome ), the portal vein of the liver (causing portal vein thrombosis ), the superior or inferior mesenteric vein (causing mesenteric ischemia ) and veins of the skin. ... These include patients with unexplained thrombosis who are young, have thrombosis in an unusual site (e.g. intra-abdominal veins, cerebral veins, dermal veins), have any evidence of hemolysis (e.g. a raised LDH), or have a low red blood cell, white blood cell, or platelet count. [15] Those who have a diagnosis of aplastic anemia should be screened annually.

    • Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria Medlineplus
      Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria is an acquired disorder that leads to the premature death and impaired production of blood cells. The disorder affects red blood cells (erythrocytes), which carry oxygen; white blood cells (leukocytes), which protect the body from infection; and platelets (thrombocytes), which are involved in blood clotting. Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria affects both sexes equally, and can occur at any age, although it is most often diagnosed in young adulthood. People with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria have sudden, recurring episodes of symptoms (paroxysmal symptoms), which may be triggered by stresses on the body, such as infections or physical exertion. During these episodes, red blood cells are prematurely destroyed (hemolysis).

      Molecular Genetics In a woman with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, Krawitz et al. (2013) identified a heterozygous germline splice site mutation in the PIGT gene (610272.0002). ... Array CGH on patient peripheral cells showed that a large proportion of granulocytes also carried a somatic heterozygous 8-Mb deletion of chromosome 20q11.23-q13.12, including the PIGT gene. Transfection of the splice site mutation into Pigt-null CHO cells caused only a minor increase in CD55 (125240) surface expression but almost no CD59 (107271) expression, suggesting a loss of function.
    • Paroxysmal Nocturnal Hemoglobinuria Gard
      Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is an acquired disorder that leads to the premature death and impaired production of blood cells. It can occur at any age, but is usually diagnosed in young adulthood. People with PNH have recurring episodes of symptoms due to hemolysis , which may be triggered by stresses on the body such as infections or physical exertion. This results in a deficiency of various types of blood cells and can cause signs and symptoms such as fatigue, weakness, abnormally pale skin (pallor), shortness of breath, and an increased heart rate. People with PNH may also be prone to infections and abnormal blood clotting ( thrombosis ) or hemorrhage, and are at increased risk of developing leukemia .

For a phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome, see HPS1 (203300). Clinical Features Hazelwood et al. (1997) ascertained 2 individuals with Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome from central Puerto Rico who lacked the 16-bp duplication in the HPS1 gene (604982.0001), exhibited significant amounts of normal-sized HPS1 gene mRNA by Northern blot analysis, and had haplotypes in the HPS1 region of chromosome 10 that were different from the haplotype of every 16-bp duplication patient. Moreover, these 2 individuals displayed no mutations in their HPS1 cDNA sequences. Both patients exhibited pigment dilution, impaired visual acuity, nystagmus, bleeding diathesis, and absent platelet dense bodies, confirming the diagnosis of HPS.
    • Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome Gard
      Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome (HPS) affects multiple body systems and includes bleeding and visual problems, and abnormally light coloring of the skin, hair, and eyes ( oculocutaneous albinism ). Other symptoms may include immune problems, lung scarring ( pulmonary fibrosis ), and colitis . Symptoms of pulmonary fibrosis may get worse over time, and people with HPS are at increased risk for skin cancer. There are ten types of HPS each caused by a different non-working gene. This condition is inherited in an autosomal recessive fashion. HPS is diagnosed based on the symptoms and confirmed by genetic testing.
    • Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome 1 Omim
      A number sign (#) is used with this entry because Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome-1 (HPS1) is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the HPS1 gene (604982) on chromosome 10q24. Description Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome (HPS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder in which oculocutaneous albinism, bleeding, and lysosomal ceroid storage result from defects of multiple cytoplasmic organelles: melanosomes, platelet-dense granules, and lysosomes (Oh et al., 1998). Genetic Heterogeneity of Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome HPS2 (608233) is caused by mutation in the AP3B1 gene (603401) on chromosome 5q14. HPS3 (614072) is caused by mutation in the HSP3 gene (606118) on chromosome 3q24. HPS4 (614073) is caused by mutation in the HSP4 gene (606682) on chromosome 22q12.
    • Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome Orphanet
      Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome (HSP) is a multi-system disorder characterized by oculocutaneous albinism, bleeding diathesis and, in some cases, neutropenia, pulmonary fibrosis, or granulomatous colitis. HPS comprises eight known disorders (HPS-1 to HPS-8), the majority of which present with the same clinical phenotype to varying degrees of severity. Epidemiology Prevalence is estimated at 1/500,000 - 1/1,000,000 in non-Puerto Rican populations. In northwestern Puerto Rico the prevalence of HPS-1 is 1/1,800. Clinical description HPS usually presents in early childhood, but may present at older ages, with oculocutaneous albinism (varying degrees of hypopigmentation), reduced visual acuity (often at/below the level of legal blindness), horizontal nystagmus, easy bruising of soft tissues, epistaxis, prolonged bleeding after dental extraction, surgery or childbirth and, in HPS-2 (see this term), neutropenia and recurrent infections. Women may present with medically significant menstrual bleeding. Complications may include granulomatous colitis and, in HPS-1 or HPS-4, pulmonary fibrosis (PF) (HPS with PF as a complication; see this term).
    • Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome 2 Omim
      A number sign (#) is used with this entry because Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome-2 (HPS2) is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the gene encoding the beta-3A subunit of the AP3 complex (AP3B1; 603401) on chromosome 5q14. For a general phenotypic description and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome, see HPS1 (203300). Description Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome (HPS) is a rare autosomal recessive disease characterized by platelet defects and oculocutaneous albinism. HPS2 differs from the other forms of HPS in that it includes immunodeficiency, and patients with HPS2 have an increased susceptibility to infections due to congenital neutropenia (Jung et al., 2006). Clinical Features Kotzot et al. (1994) reported a boy and girl with tyrosinase (TYR; 606933)-positive oculocutaneous albinism, recurrent bacterial infections, granulocytopenia, intermittent thrombocytopenia, microcephaly, protruding midface, rough and projecting hair, and mild mental retardation.

      A number sign (#) is used with this entry because of evidence that isolated growth hormone deficiency type III with agammaglobulinemia (IGHD3) is caused by mutation in the BTK gene (300300) on Xq22. Description IGHD3 is characterized by agammaglobulinemia and markedly reduced numbers of B cells, short stature, delayed bone age, and good response to treatment with growth hormone (summary by Conley et al., 1991). For general phenotypic information and a discussion of genetic heterogeneity of IGHD, see 262400. Clinical Features Fleisher et al.

    • Kowarski Syndrome Omim
      A number sign (#) is used with this entry because of evidence that Kowarski syndrome is caused by mutation in the growth hormone gene (GH1; 139250) on chromosome 17q. Mutation in the GH1 gene also causes several types of isolated growth hormone deficiency (IGHD); see 262400 for a summary. Description Kowarski syndrome, or short stature associated with bioinactive growth hormone, is characterized clinically by normal or slightly increased GH secretion, pathologically low IGF1 (147440) levels, and normal catch-up growth on GH replacement therapy (Besson et al., 2005). Clinical Features Kowarski et al. (1978) studied 2 unrelated 3-year-old boys with growth retardation and delayed bone ages, and with normal immunoreactive growth hormone after stimulation but low levels of somatomedin. Unlike the result in patients with Laron dwarfism (262500), exogenous human growth hormone induced normal levels of somatomedin and a significant increase in growth rate.

    • Isolated Growth Hormone Deficiency Gard
      Isolated growth hormone deficiency is a condition caused by a severe shortage or absence of growth hormone without other hormonal problems. Growth hormone is a protein necessary for normal growth of the bone and body tissues. Because people with this condition don't have enough of this hormone, they have short stature, which is noticeable from early childhood. There are basically four different types of isolated growth hormone deficiency, which are classified by the severity of the symptoms, the cause and the inheritance: isolated growth hormone deficiency type IA , isolated growth hormone deficiency type IB , isolated growth hormone deficiency type II and isolated growth hormone deficiency type III . Treatment involves giving growth hormone to those who are affected.

    • Embryonal Carcinoma Gard
      Embryonal carcinoma is a type of testicular cancer , which is cancer that starts in the testicles, the male reproductive glands located in the scrotum. It most often develops in young and middle-aged men. It tends to grow rapidly and spread outside the testicle. Embryonal carcinomas are classified as nonseminoma germ cell tumors. Most testicular cancers grow from germ cells, the cells that make sperm. Germ cell tumors are broadly divided into seminomas and nonseminomas because each type has a different prognosis and treatment regimen. Nonseminomas, which are more common, tend to grow more quickly than seminomas.

    • Lymphomatoid Papulosis Gard
      Lymphomatoid papulosis (LyP) is a non-contagious, chronic skin condition characterized by the eruption of recurring, self-healing bumps (lesions) on the skin. The lesions typically begin small and then become larger, and they may bleed or ulcerate before becoming scaly and crusty. They often develop a red-brown color. Symptoms associated with lesions may include itching and/or pain, which may be debilitating. The frequency of eruptions varies over time and from person to person. Lesions may be very persistent, or they may go away for long periods of time before coming back.
    • Lymphomatoid Papulosis Orphanet
      Lymphomatoid papulosis (LyP) is a rare cutaneous condition characterized by chronic, recurrent, and self-regressing papulonodular skin eruptions. It belongs to the spectrum of primary cutaneous CD30+ lymphoproliferative disorders, along with primary cutaneous anaplastic large cell lymphoma (primary C-ALCL; see this term) with which it shares overlapping clinical and histopathologic features. Epidemiology Exact prevalence is unknown. Clinical description LyP lesions develop at any age, more frequently during adulthood (mean age 45 years), as erythematous papules and nodules of less than 1.5-2 cm, grouped in clusters or disseminated throughout the body. Lesions may become necrotic in the center, show pigmentation and leave scarring. They spontaneously regress within 4 to 8 weeks but new lesions can occur at any time.
  • Amalgam Tattoo Wikipedia
    Low chronic inflammatory changes in the form of a lymphocytic aggregate (bottom right) Silver sulfide deposits are found in proximity to small vessels in the oral mucosa Silver sulfide deposits in the surrounding area of skeletal muscle fibers of the oral mucosa Amalgam tattoo usually occurs on the mandibular gingiva, often in an area in which an apicoectomy ("root-end filling") with amalgam was carried out. [3] : 138 After the gingiva, the alveolar mucosa and the buccal mucosa are the next most common sites, although any mucosal site in the mouth is possible. [1] It is painless, and appears as a blue-black or grey discolored macule on the surface of the mucosa. [3] : 138 [4] : 330 [5] : 183 The borders of the tattoo are variable, and may be well defined, irregular or diffuse. [1] Causes [ edit ] Amalgam tattoo is caused by implantation of amalgam into the tissues. [5] : 183 It may occur in several ways: During placement of an amalgam filling, [5] : 183 e.g. if abrasions on the mucosa are present which allow entry of amalgam dust [1] Shortly after placement of an amalgam filling, e.g. amalgam particles can contaminate dental floss and lead to linear amalgam tattoos in between the teeth, especially if flossing is carried out immediately after placement of an amalgam filling with a mesial or distal aspect [1] Polishing of an amalgam filling The pressure from high speed turbine dental drills can be enough to force amalgam particles into soft tissue, [1] as may occur when an old amalgam filling is being removed When a tooth with an amalgam filling is extracted, [5] : 183 e.g. broken bits of amalgam filling falling into an extraction socket unnoticed [1] When an amalgam filling is placed in the same appointment as a tooth extracted, as may occur in " quadrant dentistry " Apicectomies are common causes of amalgam tattoo, since the amalgam is being placed inside the alveolus and the soft tissues are replaced on top [1] Over time, the amalgam particles embedded in the soft tissues corrode. [5] : 183 Macrophages take up the exogenous particles, and the silver in amalgam leads to staining of collagen fibers . [5] : 183 A similar appearance can be caused by implantation of graphite (e.g. from pencil leads), and is sometimes termed a graphite tattoo , although this is less common than tattooing with amalgam. [3] : 138 Diagnosis [ edit ] The diagnosis is clinical. [3] : 138 Amalgam tattoo can be distinguished from other causes of localized oral pigmentation because it does not change significantly in size or color, [3] : 138 although it may appear to slowly enlarge for several months after the initial implantation of the metal particles. [1] [5] : 183 Some amalgam tattoos appear radio-opaque on radiographs (i.e. they show up on x-rays), [3] : 138 although in many cases amalgam tattoos have no radiographic features since the responsible particle(s) of amalgam are very small even though clinically the area of discolored mucosa is much larger. [1] If necessary, the diagnosis can be confirmed histologically by excisional biopsy , which excludes nevi and melanomas . [3] : 138 If a biopsy is taken, the histopathologic appearance is: [1] Pigmented fragments of metal within connective tissue Staining of reticulin fibers with silver salts A scattered arrangement of large, dark, solid fragments or a fine, black or dark brown granules Large particles may be surrounded by chronically inflamed fibrous tissue Smaller particles surrounded by more significant inflammation, which may be granulomatous or a mixture of lymphocytes and plasma cells Prevention [ edit ] Theoretically, routine use of a dental dam during dental procedures which involve amalgam should reduce the risk of amalgam tattoo.

  • Traumatic Aortic Rupture Wikipedia
    There can be bruising of the anterior chest wall, and a systolic murmur can be heard on the bottom of the heart. [5] Causes [ edit ] The injury is usually caused by high speed impacts such as those that occur in vehicle collisions and serious falls. [1] It may be due to different rates of deceleration of the heart and the aorta, which is in a fixed position. [6] Location of rupture [ edit ] By far the most common site for tearing in traumatic aortic rupture is the proximal descending aorta , near where the left subclavian artery branches off from the aorta. [7] The tethering of the aorta by the ligamentum arteriosum makes the site prone to shearing forces during sudden deceleration. [8] A study of people who died after traumatic aortic rupture found that in 55–65% of cases the damage was at the aortic isthmus and in 10–14% it was in the ascending aorta or aortic arch . [4] An angiogram will often show an irregular outpouching beyond the takeoff of the left subclavian artery at the aortic isthmus, representing an aortic pseudoaneurysm caused by the trauma. ...

  • Insulin Receptor Substrate 1 Omim
    Peptide inhibition experiments using phosphoserine-containing peptides of IRS1 revealed that IRS1 contains 3 putative binding sites for 14-3-3 protein. Among these 3, the motif around serine-270 is located in the phosphotyrosine-binding (PTB) domain of IRS1, which is responsible for the interaction with the insulin receptor (INSR; 147670). ... Overexpression of MIR126 inhibited cell growth in HEK293 and breast cancer cells by suppressing cycle cycle progression from G0/G1 to S phase. Zhang et al. (2008) identified a complementary site for MIR126 in the 3-prime UTR of IRS1, and in vitro luciferase assays confirmed that MIR126 targeted IRS1. ... Because of its central role in the signal transduction pathway, IRS1 is a candidate for the site of the defect in insulin action seen in patients with noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM; 125853). ... Of the 3 amino acid substitutions observed by Laakso et al. (1994), they found ser892 to gly the most 'interesting' since it abolishes one of the potential serine phosphorylation sites which is located immediately N-terminal to the only SH2-binding site of growth factor receptor-bound protein (GRB2; 108355) and thus could potentially influence some aspects of signal transduction and metabolic response to insulin.

    • Paraoxonase 1 Omim
      The structural portion of the paraoxonase protein is encoded by 9 exons that form the primary transcript through the use of typical splice donor and acceptor sites. Sorenson et al. (1995) showed that the Pon1 gene in mice contains 9 exons spanning approximately 25 to 26 kb. ... A polymorphism at position -909, which is in linkage disequilibrium with the other sites, appeared to have little or no independent effect on PON1 activity level in vivo. ... This convergent loss is likely explained by parallel shifts in marine ancestors' lipid metabolism and/or bloodstream oxidative environment affecting PON1's role in fatty acid oxidation. PON1 loss also eliminates marine mammals' main defense against neurotoxicity from specific man-made organophosphorus compounds, implying potential risks in modern environments.
  • Health Effects Of Coal Ash Wikipedia
    Exposure to coal ash and to the toxic substances it contains may pose a health risk to workers in coal-fired power plants and residents living near coal ash disposal sites. Contents 1 Background 2 Occupational health concerns 3 Health effects of toxic constituents found in coal ash 4 Coal ash reuse 5 Coal ash waste regulations 6 References Background [ edit ] Coal ash is produced at coal-fired power plants . [1] Coal is pulverized and then burned to generate electricity. [2] The particles that remain after burning coal are called coal ash, principally consisting of fly ash and bottom ash . Other coal combustion by-products are boiler slag, flue gas desulfurization gypsum, and other kinds of flue gas desulfurization residues. [1] Depending on the type of coal that was burned, the chemical composition found in coal ash can vary. [3] Coal ash obtained from the combustion of bituminous coal is constituted principally of aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 ), calcium oxide (CaO) and silicon dioxide (SiO 2 ). [3] In the composition of coal, there are many potentially hazardous substances that, if found at elevated concentration in inhaled particles, can cause major health problems in humans. [4] [5] Such constituents that are found at various concentrations in coal ash are arsenic , cadmium , chromium , cobalt , copper , lead , lithium , mercury , molybdenum , selenium , thallium and uranium . [4] [5] Coal ash in India has been stored in ash ponds and has contaminated surrounding land and water bodies. [6] In the United States approximately 110 million tons of coal ash were generated in 2012. [1] More than half of the coal ash produced in the US was dumped into ash ponds (surface impoundments; wet disposal) or landfills (dry disposal). [5] As of 2020 there are 310 active on-site landfills and 735 active on-site surface impoundments in the US. [7] Occupational health concerns [ edit ] Coal ash contains many toxic substances that may affect human health, if people are exposed to them above a certain concentration in the form of particulate matter. ... Arsenic : When high amounts of arsenic is inhaled or ingested through coal ash waste, diseases such as bladder cancer, skin cancer, kidney cancer and lung cancer can develop. [5] [11] Ultimately, exposure of arsenic over a long period of time can cause mortality. [5] Furthermore, low levels of arsenic exposure can cause irregular heartbeats, nausea, diarrhea, vomiting, peripheral neuropathy and vision impairment. [9] [5] Mercury : Chronic exposure of mercury from coal ash can cause harm to the nervous system. [5] When mercury is inhaled or ingested various health effects can occur such as vision impairment, seizures, numbness, memory loss and sleeplessness. [12] [13] Boron : When coal ash dust is inhaled, the exposure of boron can cause discomfort in the throat, nose and eye. [5] Moreover, when coal ash waste is ingested, boron exposure can be associated with kidney, liver, brain, and intestine impairment. [5] Molybdenum : When molybdenum is inhaled from coal ash dust, discomfort of the nose, throat, skin and eye can occur. [14] As a result, short-term molybdenum exposure can cause an increase of wheezing and coughing. [14] Furthermore, chronic exposure of molybdenum can cause loss of appetite, tiredness, headaches and muscle soreness. [5] [14] Thallium : The exposure of thallium in coal ash dust can cause peripheral neuropathy when inhaled. [5] Furthermore, when coal ash is ingested, thallium exposure can cause diarrhea and vomiting. [5] In addition, thallium exposure is also associated with heart, liver, lung and kidney complications. [5] Silica : When silica is inhaled from coal ash dust, fetal lung disease or silicosis can develop. [4] Furthermore, chronic exposure of silica can cause lung cancer. [4] In addition, exposure to silica over a period of time can cause loss of appetite, poor oxygen circulation, breathing complications and fever. [4] Coal ash reuse [ edit ] Reuse of coal ash benefits the environment by reducing the production of greenhouse gas and reducing the need to use virgin materials. [15] In addition, when coal ash is recycled, costs related to coal ash disposal sites are avoided. [5] [15] There are two forms of coal ash recycling: “encapsulated” and “unencapsulated." [5] [15] When coal ash is bound to other materials it is encapsulated. [5] For example, coal ash can be reused in making concrete, bricks and wallboards. [15] On the other hand, unencapsulated use of coal ash is when the ash is not bound to other materials (loose particulate or sludge form). [5] [15] An example of unencapsulated coal ash is distributing the ash on icy roads in the winter. [5] Even though reusing coal ash minimizes health effects in humans, health problems can still occur when coal ash is recycled. [5] Specifically, workers drilling or cutting encapsulated coal ash increase their risk of inhaling coal ash dust. [5] In addition, when unencapsulated coal ash is scattered on snowy streets in the winter, the loose ash can come in contact with ditches on the side of the road. [5] As a result, the toxins from coal ash can leach into surface water bodies as well as groundwater , which may be drinking water sources. [5] Therefore, both forms of recycled coal ash (encapsulated and unencapsulated) can cause serious health issues in humans. ... The court ruled that EPA failed to adequately address the problems with unlined ponds, many of which continue to leak into groundwater. [21] In 2019, the court agreed to a voluntary remand while allowing the 2020 compliance deadline for unlined ponds to stay in effect, pending further rulemaking. [22] EPA published a proposed rule on August 14, 2019 that would use location-based criteria, rather than a numerical threshold (i.e. impoundment or landfill size) that would require an operator to demonstrate minimal environmental impact so that a site could remain in operation. [23] In response to litigation on the 2015 regulation, EPA published a final RCRA regulation on August 28, 2020 requiring all unlined ash ponds to retrofit with liners or close by April 11, 2021. ...

  • Muscular Dystrophy, Becker Type Omim
    Mapping Kingston et al. (1983, 1984) found linkage of BMD with the cloned sequence L1.28 (designated DXS7 by the seventh Human Gene Mapping Workshop in Los Angeles; D = DNA, X = X chromosome, S = segment, 7 = sequence of delineation). ... Arikawa-Hirasawa et al. (1995) found an extremely short dystrophin resulting from a large deletion in a boy with severe muscular dystrophy. The entire actin-binding site at the N terminus was missing, although the protein was predicted to have a putative binding site for the dystrophin-associated glycoprotein and still could associate with the sarcolemmal membrane. ... Sequencing the regions flanking the insertion revealed a point mutation in intron 2 (300377.0083) that creates an AG dinucleotide consensus sequence for a splicing acceptor site, predicted to produce a novel exon structure that is then incorporated into dystrophin mRNA. Yagi et al. (2003) stated that the creation of a splice acceptor site by a single nucleotide change leading to an extra exon structure is a novel molecular mechanism in human disease. ... Tuffery-Giraud et al. (2005) reported 5 splice site mutations in the DMD gene in 5 patients with Becker muscular dystrophy.

    • Becker Muscular Dystrophy Orphanet
      A rare, genetic muscular dystrophy characterized by progressive muscle wasting and weakness due to degeneration of skeletal, smooth and cardiac muscle. Epidemiology Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) primarily affects males; in Europe the estimated prevalence ranges between 1:16,700-1:18,500 male births. Clinical description Onset is usually in childhood, typically after 7 years of age, but can be later. Presenting features in children include toe walking gait and or exercise-related cramps with or without myoglobinuria. Some patients may present following anesthetic induced acute rhabdomyolysis.
    • Muscular Dystrophy, Pseudohypertrophic, With Internalized Capillaries Omim
      Hastings et al. (1980) described 2 unrelated families, each with father and son with pseudohypertrophic muscular dystrophy. The paternal grandfather in 1 family may have been affected also. The phenotype resembled that of Becker muscular dystrophy (300376). The mothers showed no evidence of carrier status, but both fathers had pseudohypertrophic calves and one gave a history of weakness in childhood with subsequent improvement. Muscle histology in all 4 showed changes like those of Becker muscular dystrophy with, in addition, central cores and internalized capillaries in type I fibers. The internalized capillaries were considered unique to this disorder.
    • Duchenne And Becker Muscular Dystrophy Medlineplus
      Muscular dystrophies are a group of genetic conditions characterized by progressive muscle weakness and wasting (atrophy). The Duchenne and Becker types of muscular dystrophy are two related conditions that primarily affect skeletal muscles , which are used for movement, and heart (cardiac) muscle. These forms of muscular dystrophy occur almost exclusively in males. Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophies have similar signs and symptoms and are caused by different mutations in the same gene. The two conditions differ in their severity, age of onset, and rate of progression. In boys with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, muscle weakness tends to appear in early childhood and worsen rapidly.
    • Duchenne And Becker Muscular Dystrophy Orphanet
      A group of rare, genetic, progressive muscular dystrophies, including Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) and a symptomatic form in female carriers. The diseases represent a spectrum of severity ranging from progressive skeletal and cardiac muscle wasting and weakness (DMD, BMD) to less severe muscle weakness or isolated cardiomyopathy affecting carrier females. Epidemiology The prevalence of DMD ranges between 1/3,500-1/ 9,300 male births. The prevalence of BMD varies from 1/16,700 to 1/18,500 male births. The prevalence of symptomatic female carriers is unknown. Clinical description Dystrophinopathies present with a spectrum of severity whereby BMD is at the mildest end and DMD the most severe, there is an intermediate phenotype in between.
    • Becker Muscular Dystrophy Gard
      Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) is an inherited condition that causes progressive weakness and wasting of the skeletal and cardiac (heart) muscles. It primarily affects males. The age of onset and rate of progression can vary. Muscle weakness usually becomes apparent between the ages of 5 and 15. In some cases, heart involvement (cardiomyopathy) is the first sign. BMD is caused by a mutation in the DMD gene and is inherited in an X-linked recessive manner. BMD is very similar to Duchenne muscular dystrophy , except that in BMD, symptoms begin later and progress at a slower rate.

    • Alopecia, Androgenetic, 1 Omim
      Description Androgenetic alopecia is characterized by a loss of hair from the scalp that follows a defined pattern (Hamilton, 1951). It occurs in women as well as in men. It is caused by a shortening of the anagen (growth) phase and miniaturization of the hair follicle, which results in the formation of progressively thinner, shorter hair (Bergfeld, 1995). In men, the condition is often referred to as male pattern baldness (MPB) and appears to be androgen-dependent (Hamilton, 1942). The condition is hereditary, and follows a pattern that may be consistent with an autosomal dominant trait (Osborn, 1916). Linkage evidence for an autosomal locus on 3q26 (AGA1) has been identified (Hillmer et al., 2008).
    • Androgenetic Alopecia Medlineplus
      Androgenetic alopecia is a common form of hair loss in both men and women. In men, this condition is also known as male-pattern baldness. Hair is lost in a well-defined pattern, beginning above both temples. Over time, the hairline recedes to form a characteristic "M" shape. Hair also thins at the crown (near the top of the head), often progressing to partial or complete baldness. The pattern of hair loss in women differs from male-pattern baldness. In women, the hair becomes thinner all over the head, and the hairline does not recede.
