Noonan Syndrome Spectrum Disorders Predispose to Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Case Report and Critical Review of the Literature

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT RASopathies are clinically overlapping neurodevelopmental syndromes resulting from germline mutations in genes involved in the rat sarcoma/mitogen‐activated protein kinases (RAS/MAPK) pathway. Historically, RASopathies have been described by clinical phenotypes, such as Noonan syndrome and Neurofibromatosis type I.

Marfan Syndrome Associated With Intellectual Disability and Behavioral Anomalies: Further Evidence for the Effect of Compound Heterozygous Variants in FBN1 on Phenotypic Severity

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marfan syndrome (MFS) is a rare connective tissue disorder characterized by involvement of the cardiovascular, ocular, and musculoskeletal systems. Pathogenic variants in FBN1 cause most of the MFS cases; however, intellectual disability (ID) is rarely observed. A non‐consanguineous Pakistani family with four affected individuals was recruited.
