Disease relevance of Dysostoses

  • Mutations in genes encoding Notch pathway components underlie three inherited human diseases: Alagille syndrome, spondylocostal dysostosis, and cerebral autosomal dominant arteriopathy with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy [1].
  • The similarity in the phenotypes we describe here and that of some human birth defects, such as spondylocostal dysostosis, raises the possibility that mutations in Tbx6 or components of this pathway may be responsible for these defects [2].
  • The disorder is characterized by frontonasal dysostosis, coronal craniostenosis, and the variable presence of other skeletal defects, including short webbed neck, sloping shoulders, polydactyly, syndactyly, and broad first toes [3].
  • Conditions treated were facial cleft (n = 5), frontonasal dysplasia (n = 7) and facial dysostosis (n = 8).Intra-operative complications included major haemorrhage (n = 4), bradycardia (n = 3) and unintentional tracheal extubation (n = 1) [4].
  • A particular middle phalangeal type of ASPs is found in a distinct variety of multiple epiphyseal dysplasia with marked retardation of bone age and severe coxarthrosis in adult life, previously reported as "hereditary peripheral dysostosis" [Bachman, 1967: Proc R Soc Med 60:21-22; Giedion, 1969: Fortschr Rontgenstr 110:507-524] [5].
 

Psychiatry related information on Dysostoses

 

High impact information on Dysostoses

  • Mutations in the human delta homologue, DLL3, cause axial skeletal defects in spondylocostal dysostosis [7].
  • Mutations in a new gene in Ellis-van Creveld syndrome and Weyers acrodental dysostosis [8].
  • Spondylocostal dysostosis (SD, MIM 277300) is a group of vertebral malsegmentation syndromes with reduced stature resulting from axial skeletal defects [7].
  • Mutations in the DSL (Delta, Serrate, Lag2) Notch (N) ligand Delta-like (Dll) 3 cause skeletal abnormalities in spondylocostal dysostosis, which is consistent with a critical role for N signaling during somitogenesis [9].
  • Mutated MESP2 causes spondylocostal dysostosis in humans [10].

Gene context of Dysostoses

  • Dynamic expression patterns of the pudgy/spondylocostal dysostosis gene Dll3 in the developing nervous system [19].
  • This examination suggested that mutations at the PRRX1 and/or PRRX2 loci could result in Nager Acrofacial Dysostosis (NAFD) syndrome [20].
  • Acrofacial dysostosis in a patient with the TSC2-PKD1 contiguous gene syndrome [21].
  • A novel heterozygous deletion in the EVC2 gene causes Weyers acrofacial dysostosis [22].
  • The map location and expression pattern suggest ZFP-37 as a candidate gene for a craniofacial-limb malformation, Nager syndrome (acrofacial dysostosis) [23].
