Clinical Laboratory Studies in Barth Syndrome

open access: yesMolecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2014
Barth Syndrome is a rare X-linked disorder characterized principally by dilated cardiomyopathy, skeletal myopathy and neutropenia and caused by defects in tafazzin, an enzyme responsible for modifying the acyl chain moieties of cardiolipin. While several comprehensive clinical studies of Barth Syndrome have been published detailing cardiac and ...

Barth Syndrome Cardiomyopathy: An Update

open access: yesGenes, 2022
Barth syndrome (BTHS) is an X-linked mitochondrial lipid disorder caused by mutations in the TAFAZZIN (TAZ) gene, which encodes a mitochondrial acyltransferase/transacylase required for cardiolipin (CL) biosynthesis. Cardiomyopathy is a major clinical feature of BTHS.

Dysmorphology of Barth syndrome

Clinical Dysmorphology, 2009
Barth syndrome is an X-linked recessive condition caused by defective remodelling of cardiolipins in mitochondrial membranes because of mutations in the tafazzin (TAZ1/G4.5) gene located at Xq28. The cardinal features of Barth syndrome are cardiac and skeletal myopathy and neutropaenia, reported in the initial description of this condition by Barth et ...

Heart Transplantation for Barth Syndrome

Pediatric Cardiology, 1997
Barth syndrome is an X-linked recessive disorder comprising dilated cardiomyopathy, muscular hypotonia, and cyclical neutropenia. Affected children usually die during infancy as a consequence of septicemia, cardiac failure, or both. We report a patient with Barth syndrome who underwent successful heart transplantation.

CLINICOPATHOLOGIC CONFERENCE: BARTH SYNDROME

Fetal and Pediatric Pathology, 2005
A case of Barth Syndrome is presented and discussed by both clinician and pathologist, in this traditional clinico-pathologic conference. The current understanding of etiology is included, including elevation of 3-methylglutaconic acid (3MGC).

Haematological features in Barth syndrome

Current Opinion in Hematology, 2013
This review highlights recent advances concerning pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnosis and treatment of Barth syndrome with particular regard to haematological abnormalities (e.g., neutropenia).Directed motility and killing activity of neutrophils is normal in patients with Barth syndrome, but neutrophils and eospinophils show ...

Cardiolipin metabolism and Barth Syndrome

Progress in Lipid Research, 2006
Many advances have occurred in the field of Barth Syndrome biology in the 26 years since it was first described as an X-linked cardiomyopathy. Barth Syndrome is the first human disease recognized in which the primary causative factor is an alteration in cardiolipin remodeling. Cardiolipin is required for the optimal function of many proteins within the

Barth syndrome in a female patient

Molecular Genetics and Metabolism, 2012
BACKGROUND: Barth syndrome (BTHS) is an X-linked recessive disorder characterized by cardiomyopathy, skeletal myopathy and cyclic neutropenia in male patients. It is caused by mutations in the TAZ gene coding for the tafazzin, a protein involved in the remodeling of cardiolipin.
