Clinical Outcomes and Patient Experiences With Celiprolol Therapy in Vascular Ehlers–Danlos Syndrome: The First Non‐European Cohort

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vascular Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (vEDS) is a hereditary connective tissue disorder caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants in COL3A1. European studies have shown that celiprolol may reduce the risk of life‐threatening vascular events, but outcomes in non‐European populations and the therapy's psychological impact remain unclear. We conducted

Identification of Fibrillin-1 Gene Mutations in Marfan Syndrome by High- Resolution Melting Analysis

open access: yes, 2010
Marfan syndrome has been associated with approximately 562 mutations in the fibrillin-1 (FBN1) gene. Mutation scanning of the FBN1 gene with DNA direct sequencing is time- consuming and expensive because of its large size.
