A homozygous BMPR1B mutation causes a new subtype of acromesomelic chondrodysplasia with genital anomalies
Osman Demirhan,Seval Türkmen,Georg C. Schwabe,Süreyya Soyupak,Erol Akgül,Deniz Taştemir,D Karahan,Stefan Mundlos,Katarina Lehmann +8 more
TL;DR: The patient’s skeletal phenotype shows an overlap with the clinical spectrum of the acromesomelic chondrodysplasias of the Grebe, Hunter-Thompson, and DuPan types caused by homozygous mutations in the gene coding for growth differentiation factor 5 (GDF5) which is a high-affinity ligand to BMPR1B.
Journal ArticleDOI
Analysis of peripheral blood T-cell subsets, natural killer cells and serum levels of cytokines in children with Down syndrome
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluated the relationship between humoral and cell-mediated immune response parameters and impairment of immune functions in children with Down syndrome (DS) using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cerebellar hypoplasia, with quadrupedal locomotion, caused by mutations in the very low-density lipoprotein receptor gene.
TL;DR: Sequencing of candidate genes identified a homozygous frameshift mutation in the very low-density lipoprotein receptor (VLDLR) gene in all affected individuals and mapped the underlying gene to a 14-cM interval on chromosome 9ptel using a genome-wide linkage approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chromosome aberrations in a schizophrenia population.
Osman Demirhan,Deniz Taştemir +1 more
TL;DR: The incidence of inv(9) and 9qh+ in schizophrenic patients were found higher than the general population, suggesting that a susceptibility locus for schizophrenia may be located at pericentromeric region of chromosome 9.
Journal ArticleDOI
Identification of two different mutations in the PDS gene in an inbred family with Pendred syndrome
Paul Coucke,P. van Hauwe,Lorraine A. Everett,Osman Demirhan,Y. Kabakkaya,N.L. Dietrich,Richard J.H. Smith,E Coyle,Willie Reardon,Richard C. Trembath,P. J. Willems,Eric D. Green,G. Van Camp +12 more
TL;DR: The occurrence of two different PDS mutations in an extended inbred Turkish family is reported, indicating that the 1558T→G mutation may be a common mutation.
