Genet Med . 2017 Jul; 20(1):109-118. PMID: 28726805
PurposePREPL deficiency causes neonatal hypotonia, ptosis, neonatal feeding difficulties, childhood obesity, xerostomia, and growth hormone deficiency. Different recessive contiguous gene deletion syndromes involving PREPL and a variable combination of SLC3A1...

Background: CHARGE syndrome is a variable entity. Clinical diagnosis is based on the Blake-Verloes criteria and can be confirmed by identifying a mutation or deletion in the CHD7 gene. Hypoplasia...

Sci Rep . 2015 Dec; 5:17667. PMID: 26631348
Genetic defects such as copy number variations (CNVs) in non-coding regions containing conserved non-coding elements (CNEs) outside the transcription unit of their target gene, can underlie genetic disease. An example...

Context: The phenotype of 45,X/46,XY mosaicism is heterogeneous ranging from females with Turner syndrome (TS) to apparently normal males. Males with 45,X/46,XY frequently show stigmata typically associated with TS. We...

Hypotonia-cystinuria syndrome (HCS) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by combined deletions of SLC3A1 and PREPL. Clinical features include cystinuria, neonatal hypotonia with spontaneous improvement, poor feeding in neonates, hyperphagia...

Izzi B, Francois I, Labarque V, Thys C, Wittevrongel C, Devriendt K, et al.
PLoS One . 2012 Jun; 7(6):e38579. PMID: 22679513
Background: Pseudohypoparathyroidism (PHP) indicates a group of heterogeneous disorders whose common feature is represented by impaired signaling of hormones that activate Gsalpha, encoded by the imprinted GNAS gene. PHP-Ib patients...

Pediatr Nephrol . 2012 Jun; 27(11):2123-2127. PMID: 22664570
Background: Cystinosis is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by intralysosomal cystine accumulation. Growth retardation is more pronounced in cystinosis than in other chronic kidney diseases and is mostly not corrected...

Albright's hereditary osteodystrophy (AHO) is characterized by short stature, round face, calcifications, obesity, brachydactyly and intellectual disability. AHO without hormone resistance is called pseudopseudohypoparathyroidism (PPHP), a rare clinical condition difficult...
