GATA3 Deletion Associated With Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis: Expanding the Phenotypic Spectrum of Hypoparathyroidism, Sensorineural Deafness, and Renal Dysplasia (HDR) Syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hypoparathyroidism, sensorineural deafness, and renal dysplasia (HDR) syndrome is caused by pathogenic variants in the GATA3 gene located on chromosome 10p14. Here we present a 10‐year‐old girl with HDR syndrome who also has oligoarticular juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA).

Syndrome of the Month: An Update on Smith‐Kingsmore Syndrome: Characterization of Developmental Milestones and a Review of the Literature

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Smith‐Kingsmore syndrome (SKS) is a rare autosomal dominant condition characterized by neurodevelopmental differences, macrocephaly/megalencephaly, describable facial features, sleep–wake abnormalities, hyperphagia, and overgrowth. SKS is caused by pathogenic gain‐of‐function variants in MTOR which lead to hyperactivation of the mTOR pathway ...
