Cardiomyopathy is the most common presenting feature of Barth syndrome, often presenting in infancy with severe heart failure and cardiac dysfunction. Historically, affected infants commonly died early after presentation, sometimes before a diagnosis of ...

Barth syndrome cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Barth syndrome (BTHS) is an inherited form of cardiomyopathy, caused by a mutation within the gene encoding the mitochondrial transacylase tafazzin. Tafazzin is involved in the biosynthesis of the unique phospholipid cardiolipin (CL), which is almost exclusively found in mitochondrial membranes.

Assessing olfactory functions in patients with Barth syndrome. [PDF]
Barth syndrome is a rare X-linked disease affecting less than 200 individuals worldwide. Several comorbidities have been associated with the pathology and, among those, cardiac myopathy and neutropenia are the most life threatening.

Mechano‐energetic aspects of Barth syndrome [PDF]
AbstractEnergy‐demanding organs like the heart are strongly dependent on oxidative phosphorylation in mitochondria. Oxidative phosphorylation is governed by the respiratory chain located in the inner mitochondrial membrane. The inner mitochondrial membrane is the only cellular membrane with significant amounts of the phospholipid cardiolipin, and ...

Generation of a homozygous TAZ knockout hESCs line by CRISPR/Cas9 system
Tafazzin (TAZ), a mitochondrial transacylase located on chromosome X, is required for the production of the mitochondrial phospholipid cardiolipin. Mutations occurring in the TAZ gene will lead to Barth syndrome, an X-linked recessive disease generally ...

Quality of life in Barth syndrome. [PDF]
Introduction: Barth syndrome (BTHS) is a rare X-linked disorder characterized by cardiomyopathy, neutropenia, growth abnormalities, and skeletal myopathy. There have been few studies investigating health-related quality of life (HRQoL) in this population.
