Generation and validation of a conditional knockout mouse model for the study of the Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2021
Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome (SLOS) is a developmental disorder (OMIM #270400) caused by autosomal recessive mutations in the Dhcr7 gene, which encodes the enzyme 3β-hydroxysterol-Δ7 reductase.

Familial DHCR7 genotype presenting as a very mild form of Smith‐Lemli‐Opitz syndrome and lethal holoprosencephaly [PDF]

open access: yesJIMD Reports, 2020
Smith‐Lemli‐Opitz syndrome (SLOS) is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder caused by variants in the DHCR7 gene. In cholesterol biosynthesis, 7‐dehydrocholesterol (7‐DHC) is converted to cholesterol by the enzyme 7‐DHC reductase, which is encoded by ...

Oxysterols and Retinal Degeneration in a Rat Model of Smith-Lemli-Opitz Syndrome: Implications for an Improved Therapeutic Intervention

open access: yesMolecules, 2018
Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) is an autosomal recessive human disease caused by mutations in the gene encoding 7-dehydrocholesterol (7DHC) reductase (DHCR7), resulting in abnormal accumulation of 7DHC and reduced levels of cholesterol in bodily ...

The Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Genetics, 2000
The Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome (SLOS) is one of the archetypical multiple congenital malformation syndromes. The recent discovery of the biochemical cause of SLOS and the subsequent redefinition of SLOS as an inborn error of cholesterol metabolism have led to important new treatment possibilities for affected patients.

Smith-Lemli-Opitz-syndrome

open access: yesIndian Journal of Human Genetics, 2012
Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome is an autosomal recessively inherited disorder. A severe defect in cholesterol biosynthesis has been identified leading to abnormally low plasma cholesterol levels and elevated levels of the cholesterol precursor 7-dehydrocholesterol, the result of deficiency of 7-dehydrocholesterol reductase.
