Journal ArticleDOI

Mutation of the endothelin-3 gene in the Waardenburg-Hirschsprung disease (Shah-Waardenburg syndrome)

TL;DR: A homozygous substitution/deletion mutation of the EDA/3 gene is reported in a WS-HSCR patient, supporting the view that the endothelin-signaling pathways play a major role in the development of neural crests.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diversity of RET proto-oncogene mutations in familial and sporadic Hirschsprung disease

TL;DR: The low penetrance of the mutant gene, the lack of genotype-phenotype correlation, the sex-dependent effect of RET mutations and the variable clinical expression of the disease support the existence of one or more modifier genes in familial HSCR.
Journal ArticleDOI

Podocin localizes in the kidney to the slit diaphragm area.

TL;DR: In situ hybridization and electron microscopy demonstrate that podocin is facing the slit diaphragm with its two ends in the cytoplasm of the foot processes, in agreement with its predicted structure, suggesting thatpodocin could serve to anchor directly or indirectly components of the slitdiaphragms to the cytoskeleton.
Journal ArticleDOI

Germline mutations of the RET ligand GDNF are not sufficient to cause Hirschsprung disease.

TL;DR: S segregation analysis suggested an incompletely penetrant dominant inheritance in HSCR families with agan-glionosis extending beyond the sigmoid colon, and mutations of the gene encoding GDNF could either cause or modulate the H SCR phenotype in some cases.
