Arterial fragility in kyphoscoliotic Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. [PDF]
Pathogenic variants in the lysyl-hydroxylase-1 gene (PLOD1) are responsible for the kyphoscoliotic type of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS). The disease is classically responsible for severe hypotonia at birth, progressive kyphoscoliosis, generalised joint hypermobility and scleral fragility.

Phenotypic variability of the kyphoscoliotic type of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS VIA): clinical, molecular and biochemical delineation [PDF]
Background The kyphoscoliotic type of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS VIA) (OMIM 225400) is a rare inheritable connective tissue disorder characterized by a deficiency of collagen lysyl hydroxylase 1 (LH1; EC 1.14.11.4) due to mutations in PLOD1 ...

FKBP14 kyphoscoliotic Ehlers-Danlos syndrome misdiagnosed as Larsen syndrome: a case report. [PDF]
Hereditary connective tissue disorders have overlapping phenotypes, particularly in regard to musculoskeletal features. This contributes to the challenge of phenotype-based clinical diagnoses. However, some hereditary connective tissue disorders have distinct cardiovascular manifestations that require early intervention and specific management ...

Rare Cases of PLOD1-Related Kyphoscoliotic Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome in a Korean Family Identified by Next Generation Sequencing. [PDF]
Kyphoscoliotic Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (kEDS) is an autosomal recessive connective tissue disorder characterized by muscular hypotonia, hyperextensible skin, skin fragility, joint hypermobility, and progressive kyphoscoliosis. The disorder results from a deficiency of the enzyme collagen lysyl hydroxylase 1 due to mutations in the gene PLOD1.

Oral Manifestations of Non Vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Cross-Sectional Study. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Ehlers–Danlos syndromes are rare hereditary connective tissue disorders; however, their oral manifestations remain poorly characterized in molecularly confirmed individuals. The aim of this study was to describe the oral phenotype of patients with non‐vascular Ehlers‐Danlos syndromes compared to healthy controls.

Uncovering the Genetic Landscape of Pediatric Hearing Loss Along the Texas-Mexico Border. [PDF]
Project GIVE provided evaluations and genome sequencing to 23 children with hearing loss along the Texas–Mexico border. Seventy percent received a molecular diagnosis and 56% of those diagnosed had changes to medical management. In this region, underdiagnosis of genetic hearing loss is due to care barriers rather than lower genetic burden.

Transcriptome Profiling of Primary Skin Fibroblasts Reveal Distinct Molecular Features Between PLOD1- and FKBP14-Kyphoscoliotic Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. [PDF]
Kyphoscoliotic Ehlers–Danlos Syndrome (kEDS) is a rare genetic heterogeneous disease clinically characterized by congenital muscle hypotonia, kyphoscoliosis, and joint hypermobility. kEDS is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in either PLOD1 or FKBP14. PLOD1 encodes the lysyl hydroxylase 1 enzyme responsible for hydroxylating lysyl residues in the
