Genotype/phenotype correlation in hereditary spherocytosis
Red blood cells are biconcave under physiological conditions but their shape changes when navigating narrow blood vessels or confined spaces in tissue and organs (such as the spleen). The ability of a red cell to maintain its discoid shape, elasticity and deformability in the circulation ...

Genotype-phenotype correlations in FSHD [PDF]
Facial-scapular-humeral myodystrophy Landouzy-Dejerine (FSHD) is an autosomal dominant disease, the basis of its pathogenesis is ectopic expression of the transcription factor DUX4 in skeletal muscle. There are two types of the disease: FSHD1 (MIM:158900) and FSHD2 (MIM: 158901), which have different genetic causes but are phenotypically ...

Genotype–phenotype correlations in recessive titinopathies [PDF]
High throughput sequencing analysis has facilitated the rapid analysis of the entire titin (TTN) coding sequence. This has resulted in the identification of a growing number of recessive titinopathy patients. The aim of this study was to (1) characterize the causative genetic variants and clinical features of the largest cohort of recessive titinopathy

PAX6 mutations: genotype-phenotype correlations [PDF]
Abstract Background The PAX6 protein is a highly conserved transcriptional regulator that is important for normal ocular and neural development. In humans, heterozygous mutations of the PAX6 gene cause aniridia (absence of the iris) and related developmental eye diseases.

Genotype–Phenotype Correlations in Angelman Syndrome [PDF]
Angelman syndrome (AS) is a rare neurodevelopmental disease that is caused by the loss of function of the maternal copy of ubiquitin–protein ligase E3A (UBE3A) on the chromosome 15q11–13 region. AS is characterized by global developmental delay, severe intellectual disability, lack of speech, happy disposition, ataxia, epilepsy, and distinct behavioral

Genotype-phenotype correlation in pseudoxanthoma elasticum [PDF]
Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is caused by variants in the ABCC6 gene. It results in calcification in the skin, peripheral arteries and the eyes, but has considerable phenotypic variability. We investigated the association between the ABCC6 genotype and calcification and clinical phenotypes in these different organs.ABCC6 sequencing was performed in ...

Genotype-phenotype correlation in patients with 21-hydroxylase deficiency
Introduction21-hydroxylase deficiency (21OHD) is the most common cause of congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH). However, patients with 21OHD manifest various phenotypes due to a wide-spectrum residual enzyme activity of different CYP21A2 mutations ...

Genotype-phenotype correlation study in 364 osteogenesis imperfecta Italian patients [PDF]
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a rare genetic disorder of the connective tissue and 90% of cases are due to dominant mutations in COL1A1 and COL1A2 genes.
