Regulation of zebrafish skeletogenesis by ext2/dackel and papst1/pinscher. [PDF]
Mutations in human Exostosin genes (EXTs) confer a disease called Hereditary Multiple Exostoses (HME) that affects 1 in 50,000 among the general population. Patients with HME have a short stature and develop osteochondromas during childhood. Here we show

A splice mutation and mRNA decay of EXT2 provoke hereditary multiple exostoses.
BackgroundHereditary multiple exostoses (HME) is an autosomal dominant disease. The classical paradigm of mutation screening seeks to relate alterations in the exostosin glycosyltransferase genes, EXT1 and EXT2, which are responsible for over 70% of HME ...

Mutation spectrum of EXT1 and EXT2 in the Saudi patients with hereditary multiple exostoses [PDF]
Background Hereditary Multiple Exostoses (HME), also known as Multiple Osteochondromas (MO) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by multiple benign cartilaginous bone tumors, which are caused by mutations in the genes for exostosin ...

Three Novel EXT1 and EXT2 Gene Mutations in Taiwanese Patients with Multiple Exostoses
Multiple osteochondromatosis, also known as hereditary multiple exostoses (HME), is an inherited autoso-mal dominant disorder characterized by the presence of multiple exostoses on the long bones.

Technological advances have allowed the discovery of 6 subtypes of membranous nephropathy based on target antigens: M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R), thrombospondin type 1 domain-containing 7A (THSD7A), neural epidermal growth factor-like 1 ...

Proteomic Analysis of Complement Proteins in Membranous Nephropathy
Introduction: Membranous nephropathy (MN) is the most common cause of nephrotic syndrome in Caucasian adults. Phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R)– and exostosin 1 (EXT1)/exostosin 2 (EXT2)–associated MN represent the most common primary and secondary forms

Mice deficient in Ext2 lack heparan sulfate and develop exostoses [PDF]
Hereditary multiple exostoses (HME) is a genetically heterogeneous human disease characterized by the development of bony outgrowths near the ends of long bones. HME results from mutations in EXT1 and EXT2,genes that encode glycosyltransferases that synthesize heparan sulfate chains. To study the relationship of the disease to mutations in these genes,

Membranous nephropathy (MN) is the leading cause of nephrotic syndrome in adults. We previously reported that the prevalence of phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R)- and thrombospondin type 1 domain containing 7A (THSD7A)-associated MN patients in Japan is ...

Linear spaces of matrices of constant rank and instanton bundles [PDF]
We present a new method to study 4-dimensional linear spaces of skew-symmetric matrices of constant co-rank 2, based on rank 2 vector bundles on P^3 and derived category tools.

HSPG-deficient zebrafish uncovers dental aspect of multiple osteochondromas.
Multiple Osteochondromas (MO; previously known as multiple hereditary exostosis) is an autosomal dominant genetic condition that is characterized by the formation of cartilaginous bone tumours (osteochondromas) at multiple sites in the skeleton ...
