Objective: To investigate the prevalence of thrombotic events among patients with proven or highly probable homozygosis for the Arg304Gln (Factor VII Padua) defect or compound heterozygosis containing the Arg304Gln mutation. Methods: Homozygotes and compound heterozygotes proven by molecular studies to have the Arg304Gln mutation were gathered from personal files and from two PubMed searches. In addition, patients with probable homozygosis on the basis of clotting tests (discrepancies among Factor VII activity levels according to the tissue thromboplastin used) were also gathered.

Background: Genetic variants in calsequestrin-2 ( CASQ2 ) cause an autosomal recessive form of catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), although isolated reports have identified arrhythmic phenotypes among heterozygotes. Improved insight into the inheritance patterns, arrhythmic risks, and molecular mechanisms of CASQ2 -CPVT was sought through an international multicenter collaboration.

We have identified two individuals of Greek Cypriot origin with thalassemia intermedia. Molecular analysis has shown that each individual is a compound heterozygote for a previously described beta zero thalassemia allele and a novel mutation, C-->G in position +33, in the 5′ untranslated region of the beta globin gene. In both families the beta +33 allele is associated with the same beta haplotype (-++- ) suggesting that it is likely to be of a single origin, beta-cDNAs from normal and mutant beta alleles were isolated from peripheral blood reticulocytes using the technique of reverse trans

Abstract:
In hemochromatosis, iron overload is due to increased intestinal iron absorption attributable to mutations in several genes involved in the regulation of iron absorption and metabolism. The most common type of hemochromatosis is caused by mutations in the HFE gene, and homozygosity for the HFE p.C282Y mutation is associated with a risk of iron overload. Approximately 1:200 people of Caucasian origin are homozygous for p.C282Y, but only a minority of p.C282Y homozygotes develop significant iron overload. This is attributed in part to the presence of putative genetic modifiers of iron absorption

Abstract:
SUMMARYA tricomplex heterozygote has a synthetic chromosome complement consisting of four pairs of arms of chromosomes 2 and 3 in the form of a compound of two homologous arms (a homocompound) and of three compounds of two nonhomologous arms (heterocompounds), each being homologous to an arm of different compounds. In meiosis, pairing of homologous arms results in the formation of a single and a multiple configuration that are structural equivalents of a univalent and a trivalent. Data are presented indicating that, in a given complement, the pattern of the distribution of three heterocompound

Context: TSH receptor (TSHR) and thyroid peroxidase (TPO) gene mutations occur independently. This is the first report of their coexistence in the same individuals. Objectives: The objective of the study was to evaluate the genotype-phenotype correlations when mutations in both genes are present alone or together in the same individual. Patients and Methods: Thirty subjects from an extended Arab kindred underwent clinical investigation and molecular studies of the mutant TSHRs. Results: A novel mutant TSHR was identified, involving four nucleotides at three sites on the same allele, c.267G&amp

Abstract:
Delta beta thalassemia is an unusual variant of thalassemia with elevated level of fetal hemoglobin (HbF). Unlike beta thalassemia, delta beta thalassemia heterozygotes have milder phenotype and homozygotes present as thalassemia intermedia phenotype. We report a 11-month-old male child who presented with severe anemia, and hepatosplenomegaly, thalassemia major phenotype. On evaluation was diagnosed as compound heterozygous for δβ0/β thalassemia with IVS 1-5 (G&gt;C) mutation. This case highlights the importance of genotyping of patients with δβ thalassemia and co-inheritance of δβ thalassemia

We assessed the extent to which these polymorphisms explain very low warfarin dose requirements and hemorrhagic complications after excluding non-genetic determinants of warfarin dosing. In this retrospective observational study, 73 patients with stable warfarin doses for ≥1 month and International Normalized Ratios (INR) of 2.0–3.0 were enrolled from our Anticoagulation Clinic. Seventeen patients required ≤2 mg (low-dose), 41 required 4–6 mg (moderate-dose), and 15 required ≥10 mg (high-

We report the efficaciousness of the cyanide-nitroprusside test and of thin-layer chromatography, as compared with quantitative amino acid chromatography, for detecting heterozygotes for type II or III cystinuria. The quantitative results for aminoaciduria in 57 blood relatives in 23 families were used to categorize the index patients with classic cystinuria.

Mutations were detected in 359 ethnic Slovaks by real-time PCR assay based on TaqMan technology. The allelic frequencies were 4.03% for C282Y, 12.67% for H63D and 1.25% for S65C mutation. We observed 0.28% of C282Y/C282Y homozygotes, 3.34% H63D/H63D homozygotes, 0.84% of C282Y

These mutations have shown that N-myc has a number of functions during development, including a role in branching morphogenesis in the lung, which manifests itself at birth in mice homozygous for the leaky allele, and roles in the development of the mesonephric tubules, the neuroepithelium, the sensory ganglia, the gut and the heart, which become evident at midgestation in embryos homo

There is a growing interest in measuring the hepcidin levels, which may improve diagnosis, prognostic evaluation and clinical management of HH. Nevertheless, few investigative tools are available: an immunodot method for urinary hepcidin developed by a single centre (UCLA), not yet ready for large-scale diffusion, and mass spectrometry (MS) based assays, such as surface-enhanced laser desorption/ion

SummaryHereditary defects of the von Willebrand factor (VWF) gene cause von Willebrand’s disease (VWD) which shows great variability dependent on the nature and location of the mutation. We here describe the characteristics of a substitution of methionine for threonine 1156 in the D3 domain of the VWF, i.e. the domain involved in the intracellular multimerization of pro-VWF dimers. A VWD patient with severe symptoms was a compound heterozygote for the T1156M mutation and a null allele (Q2470X) on the other chromosome. This led to marked reduction of plasma VWF concentration to about 0.05 U/ml
