Hydrogen peroxide induced genomic instability in nucleotide excision repair-deficient lymphoblastoid cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Copyright @ 2010 Gopalakrishnan et al; licensee BioMed Central Ltd.Background The Nucleotide Excision Repair (NER) pathway specialises in UV-induced DNA damage repair. Inherited defects in the NER can predispose individuals to Xeroderma Pigmentosum (XP).

Functional and clinical relevance of novel mutations in a large cohort of patients with Cockayne syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
BACKGROUND: Cockayne syndrome (CS) is a rare, autosomal recessive multisystem disorder characterised by prenatal or postnatal growth failure, progressive neurological dysfunction, ocular and skeletal abnormalities and premature ageing.

Ophthalmic management of Cockayne's syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesEye, 1996
Cockayne's syndrome is a rare, autosomal recessive condition which usually presents in early childhood, and is characterised by dwarfism, premature ageing, mental retardation and a typical facial appearance and body habitus. Retinal dystrophy, enophthalmos, strabismus, cataract, nystagmus and corneal opacities are associated ocular features.

UVSSA and USP7, a new couple in transcription-coupled DNA repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Transcription-coupled nucleotide excision repair (TC-NER) specifically removes transcription-blocking lesions from our genome. Defects in this pathway are associated with two human disorders: Cockayne syndrome (CS) and UV-sensitive syndrome (UVSS ...

The ATRX splicing variant c.21-1G>A is asymptomatic

open access: yesHuman Genome Variation, 2022
The ATRX variant c.21-1G>A was detected by an exome analysis of a patient with Cockayne syndrome without alpha thalassemia X-linked intellectual disability syndrome (ATR-XS). In addition, variants in ERCC6 were detected.

Swallowing in Cockayne Syndrome: A Case Report

open access: yesOral Science International, 2008
AbstractThe case of a 20‐year‐old female with Cockayne syndrome, presenting with reduced intake of food, is described. At admission, her intake of food and her body weight were low. The patient’s food swallowing function was recorded by video fluorography and evaluated.

Cockayne syndrome: The developing phenotype

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, 2005
AbstractCockayne syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive condition comprising microcephaly, “cachectic dwarfism” and progressive neurological degeneration. We present a 21‐year‐old woman who was not diagnosed with Cockayne syndrome type I until she was 21 years old.

Cholestasis in patients with Cockayne syndrome and suggested modified criteria for clinical diagnosis

open access: yesOrphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2011
Background Cockayne syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disease characterized by low-to-normal birth weight; growth failure; brain dysmyelination with calcium deposits, cutaneous photosensitivity; pigmentary retinopathy, cataract ...
