Aniridia
A congenital abnormality in which there is only a rudimentary iris. This is due to the failure of the optic cup to grow. Aniridia also occurs in a hereditary form, usually autosomal dominant.
Paired Box Transcription Factors
A family of transcription factors that control EMBRYONIC DEVELOPMENT within a variety of cell lineages. They are characterized by a highly conserved paired DNA-binding domain that was first identified in DROSOPHILA segmentation genes.
WAGR Syndrome
A contiguous gene syndrome associated with hemizygous deletions of chromosome region 11p13. The condition is marked by the combination of WILMS TUMOR; ANIRIDIA; GENITOURINARY ABNORMALITIES; and INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY.
Eye Proteins
Homeodomain Proteins
Proteins encoded by homeobox genes (GENES, HOMEOBOX) that exhibit structural similarity to certain prokaryotic and eukaryotic DNA-binding proteins. Homeodomain proteins are involved in the control of gene expression during morphogenesis and development (GENE EXPRESSION REGULATION, DEVELOPMENTAL).
Repressor Proteins
Proteins which maintain the transcriptional quiescence of specific GENES or OPERONS. Classical repressor proteins are DNA-binding proteins that are normally bound to the OPERATOR REGION of an operon, or the ENHANCER SEQUENCES of a gene until a signal occurs that causes their release.
Eye Abnormalities
Congenital absence of or defects in structures of the eye; may also be hereditary.
Iris
The most anterior portion of the uveal layer, separating the anterior chamber from the posterior. It consists of two layers - the stroma and the pigmented epithelium. Color of the iris depends on the amount of melanin in the stroma on reflection from the pigmented epithelium.
Wilms Tumor
A malignant kidney tumor, caused by the uncontrolled multiplication of renal stem (blastemal), stromal (STROMAL CELLS), and epithelial (EPITHELIAL CELLS) elements. However, not all three are present in every case. Several genes or chromosomal areas have been associated with Wilms tumor which is usually found in childhood as a firm lump in a child's side or ABDOMEN.
Chromosomes, Human, Pair 11
A specific pair of GROUP C CHROMOSOMES of the human chromosome classification.
Pedigree
The record of descent or ancestry, particularly of a particular condition or trait, indicating individual family members, their relationships, and their status with respect to the trait or condition.
Anterior Eye Segment
The front third of the eyeball that includes the structures between the front surface of the cornea and the front of the VITREOUS BODY.
Urogenital Abnormalities
Congenital structural abnormalities of the UROGENITAL SYSTEM in either the male or the female.
Microphthalmos
Congenital or developmental anomaly in which the eyeballs are abnormally small.
Aphakia
Absence of crystalline lens totally or partially from field of vision, from any cause except after cataract extraction. Aphakia is mainly congenital or as result of LENS DISLOCATION AND SUBLUXATION.

Mutational analysis of PAX6: 16 novel mutations including 5 missense mutations with a mild aniridia phenotype. (1/104)

Mutations in the developmental control gene PAX6 have been shown to be the genetic cause of aniridia, which is a severe panocular eye disease characterised by iris hypoplasia. The inheritance is autosomal dominant with high penetrance but variable expressivity. Here we describe a mutational analysis of 27 Danish patients using a dideoxy fingerprinting method, which identified PAX6 mutations in 18 individuals with aniridia. A thorough phenotype description was made for the 18 patients. A total of 19 mutations, of which 16 were novel, are described. Among these were five missense mutations which tended to be associated with a milder aniridia phenotype, and in fact one of them seemed to be non-penetrant. Four of the five missense mutations were located in the paired domain. We also describe a third alternative spliced PAX6 isoform in which two of the four missense mutations would be spliced out. Our observations support the concept of dosage effects of PAX6 mutations as well as presenting evidence for variable expressivity and gonadal mosaicism.  (+info)

Goniosurgery for prevention of aniridic glaucoma. (2/104)

PURPOSE: We conducted a retrospective study to report the long-term success and complications of modified goniosurgery to prevent aniridic glaucoma, an entity that typically is difficult to control medically or surgically. METHODS: Fifty-five eyes in 33 patients who had aniridia without glaucoma and who had goniosurgery were identified. Ninety-one procedures were performed on 55 eyes by 1 surgeon (D.S.W.). Each eye had an average of 1.65 procedures and an average of 200 degrees of goniosurgery. Average patient age at time of initial goniosurgery was 37 months. There were no operative complications. RESULTS: No eye had a decrease in visual acuity at last follow-up. All eyes had a preoperative intraocular pressure (IOP) of less than 21 mm Hg. At last follow-up (average, 9 years 6 months; range, 8 months to 24 years), 49 eyes (89%) had IOP of less than 22 mm Hg without medications. The remaining 6 eyes (11%) had IOP of less than or equal to 22 mm Hg with up to 2 eye drops. Of 224 aniridic eyes of 112 patients that were seen for eye care by 1 of the authors (D.S.W.), 119 eyes (53%) demonstrated glaucoma, as defined by IOP of greater than 21 mm Hg. CONCLUSIONS: Without prophylactic goniotomy, aniridic glaucoma may be expected in half of patients, and when it occurs, it is extremely difficult to control. Prophylactic goniosurgery in selected eyes of young patients with aniridia is effective in preventing aniridic glaucoma.  (+info)

The horse homolog of congenital aniridia conforms to codominant inheritance. (3/104)

Anterior segment dysgenesis syndrome occurs frequently in Rocky Mountain horses and has two distinct ocular phenotypes: (1) large cysts originating from the temporal ciliary body or peripheral retina and (2) multiple anterior segment anomalies including ciliary cysts, iris hypoplasia, iridocorneal adhesions and opacification, nuclear cataract, and megalocornea. To determine if anterior segment dysgenesis syndrome is heritable in horses we performed ophthalmic examinations and collected pedigree information on horses (n = 516) in an extended Rocky Mountain horse pedigree. Logistic regressive segregation analysis of a subset of animals (n = 337) in which the ocular phenotypes of progeny and both parents were known indicated that the codominant inheritance model best fit the data. This model predicted cyst phenotype expression in heterozygous animals and multiple anterior segment anomalies in homozygous animals. Several cases of nonpenetrance of the cyst phenotype were detected in one lineage. The close resemblance between the inheritance and lesions observed in Small eye mice and rats, humans with congenital aniridia or anterior segment malformation, and horses with anterior segment dysgenesis syndrome supported the conclusion that anterior segment dysgenesis syndrome in the horse may be homologous to similar ophthalmic anomalies in other species.  (+info)

3' deletions cause aniridia by preventing PAX6 gene expression. (4/104)

Aniridia is a panocular human eye malformation caused by heterozygous null mutations within PAX6, a paired-box transcription factor, or cytogenetic deletions of chromosome 11p13 that encompass PAX6. Chromosomal rearrangements also have been described that disrupt 11p13 but spare the PAX6 transcription unit in two families with aniridia. These presumably cause a loss of gene expression, by removing positive cis regulatory elements or juxtaposing negative DNA sequences. We report two submicroscopic de novo deletions of 11p13 that cause aniridia but are located >11 kb from the 3' end of PAX6. The clinical manifestations are indistinguishable from cases with chain-terminating mutations in the coding region. Using human x mouse retinoblastoma somatic cell hybrids, we show that PAX6 is transcribed only from the normal allele but not from the deleted chromosome 11 homolog. Our findings suggest that remote 3' regulatory elements are required for initiation of PAX6 expression.  (+info)

Missense mutation at the C-terminus of PAX6 negatively modulates homeodomain function. (5/104)

PAX6 is essential for ocular morphogenesis. Mutations in the PAX6 gene produce various phenotypes, including aniridia, Peters' anomaly, foveal hypoplasia, autosomal dominant keratitis and congenital cataracts. PAX6 functions as a transcription factor and has two DNA binding domains (a paired domain and a homeodomain) which are joined by a linker, and a transactivation domain enriched in proline, serine and threonine (PST) at the C-terminus. The mechanism of PAX6 function is not clearly understood, and few target genes in vertebrates have been identified. We examined disease-causing missense mutations in the PST domain to understand how they affect the function of PAX6. Upon examining the DNA samples of aniridia patients, we identified three missense mutations in the PST domain: P375Q (a novel mutation) and the previously reported Q422R and X423L mutations. On the basis of functional analysis, the P375Q mutant appears to have a normal transactivation activity but lower DNA binding through the paired domain than the wild-type. The Q422R mutation resulted in the loss of DNA binding ability of the PAX6 homeodomain. Substitution analyses of the C-terminal amino acid (codon 422) indicated that an amino acid at codon 422 is required for DNA binding of the homeodomain of intact PAX6 and that the polarity and charge of the side-chain of the terminal amino acid influence this binding.  (+info)

Alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins and anterior segment dysgenesis of the eye: a report of a new association and review of the literature. (6/104)

The association of alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins (ACD-MPV) and ocular abnormalities has not been previously reported. We present a case of ACD-MPV and anterior segment dysgenesis of the eye in a full-term infant as well as a review of the relevant literature.  (+info)

Aniridia-associated translocations, DNase hypersensitivity, sequence comparison and transgenic analysis redefine the functional domain of PAX6. (7/104)

The transcription factor PAX6 plays a critical, evolutionarily conserved role in eye, brain and olfactory development. Homozygous loss of PAX6 function affects all expressing tissues and is neonatally lethal; heterozygous null mutations cause aniridia in humans and the Small eye (Sey) phenotype in mice. Several upstream and intragenic PAX6 control elements have been defined, generally through transgenesis. However, aniridia cases with chromosomal rearrangements far downstream of an intact PAX6 gene suggested a requirement for additional cis-acting control for correct gene expression. The likely location of such elements is pinpointed through YAC transgenic studies. A 420 kb yeast artificial chromosome (YAC) clone, extending well beyond the most distant patient breakpoint, was previously shown to rescue homozygous Small eye lethality and correct the heterozygous eye phenotype. We now show that a 310 kb YAC clone, terminating just 5' of the breakpoint, fails to influence the Sey phenotypes. Using evolutionary sequence comparison, DNaseI hypersensitivity analysis and transgenic reporter studies, we have identified a region, >150 kb distal to the major PAX6 promoter P1, containing regulatory elements. Components of this downstream regulatory region drive reporter expression in distinct partial PAX6 patterns, indicating that the functional PAX6 gene domain extends far beyond the transcription unit.  (+info)

PAX6 mutation as a genetic factor common to aniridia and glucose intolerance. (8/104)

A paired homeodomain transcription factor, PAX6, is a well-known regulator of eye development, and its heterozygous mutations in humans cause congenital eye anomalies such as aniridia. Because it was recently shown that PAX6 also plays an indispensable role in islet cell development, a PAX6 gene mutation in humans may lead to a defect of the endocrine pancreas. Whereas heterozygous mutations in islet-cell transcription factors such as IPF1/IDX-1/STF-1/PDX-1 and NEUROD1/BETA2 serve as a genetic cause of diabetes or glucose intolerance, we investigated the possibility of PAX6 gene mutations being a genetic factor common to aniridia and diabetes. In five aniridia and one Peters' anomaly patients, all of the coding exons and their flanking exon-intron junctions of the PAX6 gene were surveyed for mutations. The results of direct DNA sequencing revealed three different mutations in four aniridia patients: one previously reported type of mutation and two unreported types. In agreement with polypeptide truncation and a lack of the carboxyl-terminal transactivation domain in all of the mutated PAX6 proteins, no transcriptional activity was found in the reporter gene analyses. Oral glucose tolerance tests revealed that all of the patients with a PAX6 gene mutation had glucose intolerance characterized by impaired insulin secretion. Although we did not detect a mutation within the characterized portion of the PAX6 gene in one of the five aniridia patients, diabetes was cosegregated with aniridia in her family, and a single nucleotide polymorphism in intron 9 of the PAX6 gene was correlated with the disorders, suggesting that a mutation, possibly located in an uncharacterized portion of the PAX6 gene, can explain both diabetes and aniridia in this family. In contrast, the patient with Peters' anomaly, for which a PAX6 gene mutation is a relatively rare cause, showed normal glucose tolerance (NGT) and did not show a Pax6 gene mutation. Taken together, our present observations suggest that heterozygous mutations in the PAX6 gene can induce eye anomaly and glucose intolerance in individuals harboring these mutations.  (+info)

PURPOSE. To investigate the tear cytokine profile in congenital aniridia, and correlate cytokine levels with ophthalmologic findings. METHODS. We examined 35 patients with aniridia and 21 healthy controls. Tear fluid was collected with Schirmer I test and capillary tubes from each eye, and the concentration of 27 inflammatory cytokines determined using multiplex bead assay. Eyes of all participants were examined with tests for dry eye disease, including evaluation of meibomian glands (meibography). Differences in cytokine levels between the two groups were analyzed, and correlations between cytokine concentrations and ophthalmologic findings in the aniridia group investigated. RESULTS. The concentrations of six tear cytokines were significantly higher in aniridia patients than controls in both eyes, and included interleukin 1 beta (IL-1 beta), IL-9, IL-17A; eotaxin; basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF/FGF2); and macrophage inflammatory protein 1 alpha (MIP-1 alpha/ CCL3).

A 2 year old female presenting with bilateral sporadic aniridia was found to have an apparently balanced reciprocal translocation with a chromosome 11 breakpoint within band p13. Fluorescence in situ hybridisation (FISH) studies with distal 11p13 specific cosmids showed that the chromosome 11 breakpoint lay between the aniridia (PAX6) locus and a region approximately 100 kb distal to PAX6 defined by the cosmid FO2121. Although this patient did not have a detectable deletion within PAX6, her aniridia may have resulted from a disruption of the distal chromatin domain containing either enhancers or regulators for PAX6. This case may therefore be another example of aniridia caused by a position effect as recently described in two familial aniridia patients in which the phenotype cosegregated with chromosome abnormalities with 11p13 breakpoints.. ...

Altered Signaling Pathways in Aniridia-Related KeratopathyAltered Signaling Pathways in Aniridia-Related Keratopathy
Aniridia is a congenital autosomal dominant, bilateral, panocular condition, caused by haploinsufficiency of the Pax6 transcription factor. Aniridia-related keratopathy (ARK) significantly affects vision and quality of life in these patients. ARK is a chronic progressive keratopathy comprising limbal stem cell deficiency associated with impaired epithelial cell adhesion, corneal conjunctivalization, epithelial erosions and corneal vascular pannus that typically only appear after childhood.. The aims were i) to evaluate the structural changes and ii) cell signaling pathways, including the Notch1, Sonic Hedgehog (SHH), mTOR and Wnt/beta-catenin cell signaling pathways in naïve and surgically treated corneas of aniridia cases with advanced ARK and comparing with normal human adult and fetal corneas and iii) to develop a corneal cell culture model of aniridia.. Naïve ARK corneas removed at the time of the first transplantation and ARK corneal buttons removed after a failed keratolimbal allograft ...

Seven overlapping cosmids were isolated which cover the genomic sequence of WT1 and in situ hybridisation shows that they all localise to the p13 region of chromosome 11. Chromosomes from patients with aniridia and Wilms tumour, and a small subband deletion in 11p13, were analysed and no hybridisation signal was seen on the deletion chromosomes. These cosmids, therefore, can be used to analyse chromosomes from patients with sporadic aniridia for submicroscopic deletions. Aniridia patients who show normal hybridisation patterns on both chromosomes need no longer be screened for Wilms tumours.. AB - A ...

Towards Corneal Gene Therapy in the Aniridia Mouse Model Pax6Sey/+ | IOVS | ARVO JournalsTowards Corneal Gene Therapy in the Aniridia Mouse Model Pax6Sey/+ | IOVS | ARVO Journals
Purpose : Aniridia is a rare autosomal dominant disorder caused by mutations in PAX6 (Paired Box 6). Although named for lack of iris, aniridia is a panocular disorder, with vision loss attributable to three main causes: 1) hypomorphic fovea, 2) progressive corneal clouding, and 3) progressive glaucoma. Current treatments may delay vision loss, but do not prevent the blindness experienced by most people with aniridia. Gene therapy is a promising treatment strategy that may delay, or even prevent, vision loss. Here we focus on gene therapy for the corneal pathology. Methods : EmGFP (emerald GFP), PAX6, 3xFLAG/PAX6, and PAX6/3xFLAG mRNAs were injected into Xenopus laevis embryos, which were fixed and examined 14 days later. Additionally, EmGFP and 3xFLAG/PAX6 constructs, driven by smCBA (ubiquitous) or a human MiniPromoter (targeted to the cornea) were cloned into a custom rAAV genome, and packaged into rAAV9 at the University of Pennsylvania Vector Core. Viruses were introduced into wild-type and ...

Abstract: : Purpose: Anterior segment diseases including aniridia occur in the dog. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the canine PAX6 gene for the presence of causal mutations and to determine both its map position and transcriptional complexity in the canine genome. Methods: A canine pedigree was identified in which aniridia segregates as an autosomal recessive trait. Whole blood was used to make genomic DNA for analysis. PAX6 cDNA was cloned by RT-PCR from a canine retinal cDNA library. To test for the presence of multiple transcripts, primers were designed from human isoform b and used opposite canine primers. A canine radiation-hybrid (RH3000) panel was used to map PAX6 in relation to 3 genes on CFA18 (WT1, CD44, COLF1). To facilitate exon scanning in normal, affected, and carrier animals, primers were designed to span both introns and exons. Results: The entire 1289 bp coding sequence of canine PAX6 was cloned and shows 97% homology with the human sequence and 99.8% homology with the ...

Background: Altered dosage of the transcription factor PAX6 causes multiple human eye pathophysiologies. PAX6(+/-) heterozygotes suffer from aniridia and aniridia-related keratopathy (ARK), a corneal deterioration that probably involves a limbal epithelial stem cell (LESC) deficiency. Heterozygous Pax6(+/Sey-Neu) (Pax6(+/-)) mice recapitulate the human disease and are a good model of ARK. Corneal pathologies also occur in other mouse Pax6 mutants and in PAX77(Tg/-) transgenics, which over-express Pax6 and model human PAX6 duplication. Methodology/Principal Findings: We used electron microscopy to investigate ocular defects in Pax6(+/-) heterozygotes (low Pax6 levels) and PAX77(Tg/-) transgenics (high Pax6 levels). As well as the well-documented epithelial defects, aberrant Pax6 dosage had profound effects on the corneal stroma and endothelium in both genotypes, including cellular vacuolation, similar to that reported for human macular corneal dystrophy. We used mosaic expression of an X-linked ...

Aniridia is an eye disorder characterized by a complete or partial absence of the colored part of the eye (the iris). These iris abnormalities may cause the pupils to be abnormal or misshapen. Aniridia can cause reduction in the sharpness of vision (visual acuity) and increased sensitivity to light (photophobia).People with aniridia can also have other eye problems. Increased pressure in the eye (glaucoma) typically appears in late childhood or early adolescence. Clouding of the lens of the eye (cataracts), occur in 50 percent to 85 percent of people with aniridia. In about 10 percent of affected people, the structures that carry information from the eyes to the brain (optic nerves) are underdeveloped. Individuals with aniridia may also have involuntary eye movements (nystagmus) or underdevelopment of the region at the back of the eye responsible for sharp central vision (foveal hypoplasia). Many of these eye problems contribute to progressive vision loss in affected individuals. The severity of ...

UBC-VCH scientists use drug to repair a rare birth defectUBC-VCH scientists use drug to repair a rare birth defect
BACKGROUND , A POTENTIAL CURE FOR ANIRIDIA. Bad vision at birth, worse vision later: Aniridia is apparent at birth because of the missing iris. Toddlers with aniridia need eyeglasses to see, sunglasses or darkened contact lenses to protect their eyes from overexposure to light, and cannot read small text. Their eyes are continually moving, making it difficult for them to focus, and have higher internal pressure (glaucoma), which damages the optic nerve as they get older. They are also prone to corneal damage in their teens and early adulthood. Eventually, most people with aniridia are considered legally blind, and must resort to Braille or expensive electronic aids to read.. The plasticity of the eye: The reversal of tissue damage in young mice, published online today by the Journal of Clinical Investigation, fits with the fact that mammals eyes arent fully formed at birth. Human babies dont discern colours until they are six months old, and their depth perception isnt fully developed until ...

Molecular Vision: PAX6 analysis of one family and one sporadic patient from southern China with classic aniridiaMolecular Vision: PAX6 analysis of one family and one sporadic patient from southern China with classic aniridia
The two generations of the Chinese family and another sporadic patient (case 3) studied in this report originated from the southern area of China. Two individuals in two successive generations (case I.1 and case II.2) and case 3 were found to have the same congenital ocular disease (Figure 2). The three patients had aniridia and bilateral corneal degeneration, neovasculation, eyeball horizontal tremor, and microphthalmia. They showed abnormal vision even from their early childhood. When this study was performed, the patients could detect only hand movement. Applanation tonometry revealed normal intraocular pressures in both eyes. Corneas were unnormal in size and transparency. The width of the cornea of patient II-2 (8 years old, female) was 9.5 mm (OD) and 10.0 mm (OS).The refractive error of patient II-2 was −1.25 diopters (D; OD) and −2.25 D (OS). The axial length of the eyes of patient II-2 was 22.82 mm (OD) and 22.84 mm (OS). No abnormalities were detected in the lens and retina, ...

Understanding Aniridia ... and Wilms Tumor ... and Kidney Disease: May 2011
Piper did not have a great night. The nurses come in every 4 hours to check her vitals. The nurse last night did not know how to do it without waking her up each time! She opened the blinds to let the hall light in... and when Piper stirred, the nurse would TALK to her! You never TALK to a baby or make eye contact with them if you want them to go back to sleep! I know she didnt do it intentionally, but that did not make for a good night! The other nurses do a fabulous job, and they never wake her up. They can draw blood for labs, check her vitals and even change her diaper without ever waking her! Theyre good!!! ... Irony?!?! ... Their best nurse is a man, and I am fairly certain he does not have any children of his own. He really loves these kids at Duke, though!. The nurse came in a while ago holding Pipers lab report. ANC = 36. Her other counts are going up, though. Her platelet level is back to an acceptable level, and her WBC count is getting better too. I doubt they will let us go home ...

Understanding Aniridia ... and Wilms Tumor ... and Kidney Disease: December 2011
We recently had Pipers appointment at Duke to confirm if there was a hole in her PD (peritoneal dialysis) tubing or not. The scans showed no leaks!!! This is good news. We still cant explain the bulge in her tummy, but the doctors arent worried. They just said to let them know if anything changed. Her December nephrology appointment went well. Her labs came back with good results. We were told that we will start the transplant discussions in January. There is still debate over when the 1 year cancer free date is.... the nephrology team says June 8, but the oncology team says mid August. For now, we go about our days, enjoying every moment we have with each other! We praise God that we are all here to celebrate the holidays together and at home ...

People with Sporadic Aniridia have a 50% chance of passing on this condition to their children.. -WAGR syndrome - a new kind of sporadic aniridia(deletion of 11p13) This type of Aniridia is rare. Approximately 30% of people who are born with Sporadic Aniridia will also have WAGR syndrome. Both parents have normal chromosomes.. WAGR syndrome has a mutation of Pax6 gene with some of the neighboring genes mutation in the short arm of the 11th chromosome. People with WAGR syndrome have a contiguous gene deletion (a missing part of a gene ), which contains PAX6 gene, and the nearby region of 11p13, which contains a gene, called the Wilms tumor suppressor gene or gene WT1. The absence of a WT1 allele in these people leads to a high risk ( 45%) of Wilms tumor mutation. In Wilms tumor patients, usually (86% ) have only one kidney affected, in 6% both kidney, 8% of patients have mamy tumors in one kidney. Early diagnosis of the syndrome, along with close medical supervision and educational support will ...

Aniridia is an eye disorder characterized by a complete or partial absence of the colored part of the eye (the iris). These iris abnormalities may cause the pupils to be abnormal or misshapen. Aniridia can cause reduction in the sharpness of vision (visual acuity) and increased sensitivity to light (photophobia).. People with aniridia can also have other eye problems. Increased pressure in the eye (glaucoma) typically appears in late childhood or early adolescence. Clouding of the lens of the eye (cataracts), occur in 50 percent to 85 percent of people with aniridia. In about 10 percent of affected people, the structures that carry information from the eyes to the brain (optic nerves) are underdeveloped. Individuals with aniridia may also have involuntary eye movements (nystagmus) or underdevelopment of the region at the back of the eye responsible for sharp central vision (foveal hypoplasia). Many of these eye problems contribute to progressive vision loss in affected individuals. The severity ...

AU - Young, S. Robert. AU - Favor, Jack. AU - Maas, Richard L.. PY - 1994/8. Y1 - 1994/8. N2 - The human eye malformation aniridia results from haploinsufficiency of PAX6, a paired box DNA-binding protein. To study this dosage effect, we characterized two PAX6 mutations in a family segregating aniridia and a milder syndrome consisting of congenital cataracts and late onset corneal dystrophy. The nonsense mutations, at codons 103 and 353, truncate PAX6 within the N-terminal paired and C-terminal PST domains, respectively. The wild-type PST domain activates transcription autonomously and the mutant form has partial activity. A compound heterozygote had severe craniofacial and central nervous system defects and no eyes. The pattern of malformations is similar to that in homozygous Sey mice and suggests ...

Study in mice shows genes may be altered through drug repurposing - Scienmag: Latest Science and Health NewsStudy in mice shows genes may be altered through drug repurposing - Scienmag: Latest Science and Health News
Nearly all the genes in human DNA have two copies, one inherited from the mother and one from the father. There are some genetic diseases where only one copy is normal and the other one is non-functional due to a mistake in the DNA. The idea behind this study was to see if the normal copy can be enhanced to make up for the non-functional copy, said Ali Djalilian, UIC professor of ophthalmology and corresponding author of the paper. Researchers used a mouse model of the human disease aniridia, an eye disorder that affects the iris and causes substantial visual impairment and can also be associated with systemic abnormalities. In aniridia, one copy of the gene PAX6 is normal and the other copy is non-functional. The PAX6 gene is important in eye development and patients with aniridia and PAX6 deficiency are born with eye problems, which limit their vision and can progress throughout life, Djalilian said. The investigators screened drugs that can enhance PAX6 and found a particular class of drugs ...

ARS presents with ocular features (eye abnormalities) and non-ocular features. Most commonly affected ocular structure in ARS are the iris, the cornea, and the anterior chamber. The ocular abnormalities often affect both eyes, although it can be asymmetrical and in rare cases, only one eye might be affected.. The iris abnormalities include underdevelopment (iris hypoplasia) or thinning of the iris (iris stromal atrophy). In more severe cases, this may result in the formation of holes in the iris that can appear as if the individual has more than one pupil (pseudopolycoria). Iris hypoplasia may also lead to the displacement of the pupil from its normal position (corectopia). If severe, iris hypoplasia may even appear as aniridia, the complete absence of the iris. Less commonly, ARS may present with strabismus, a condition where the two eyes are misaligned with each other. This is because the extraocular muscles which are responsible for eye movements attach to the eye at abnormal insertion ...

Chromosomal localization of seven PAX genes and cloning of a novel family member, PAX-9 | Semantic ScholarChromosomal localization of seven PAX genes and cloning of a novel family member, PAX-9 | Semantic Scholar
In the human paired box-containing (PAX) gene family, only two members, PAX-3 and PAX-6, which are associated with Waardenburgs syndrome and aniridia, respectively have been mapped to human chromosomes. We have now isolated cosmids for six additional human PAX genes (PAX-1,-2,-5,-7,-8,-9) and a polymerase chain reaction fragment for PAX-4. PAX-9 is a novel family member which is closely related in its paired domain to PAX-1. The chromosomal location of all cloned PAX genes was determined by analysis of somatic cell hybrids and (except PAX-4) by fluorescence in situ hybridization to metaphase chromosomes. PAX-1 and PAX-7 map to chromosomal regions containing previously assigned disease loci.

Screening tests are done in children with an increased risk of Wilms tumor. These tests may help find cancer early and decrease the chance of dying from cancer.. In general, children with an increased risk of Wilms tumor should be screened for Wilms tumor every three months until they are at least 8 years old. An ultrasound test of the abdomen is usually used for screening. Small Wilms tumors may be found and removed before symptoms occur. Children with Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome or hemihyperplasia are also screened for liver and adrenal tumors that are linked to these genetic syndromes. A test to check the alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) level in the blood and an ultrasound of the abdomen are done until the child is 4 years old. An ultrasound of the kidneys is done after the child is 4 years old. In children with certain gene changes, a different schedule for ultrasound of the abdomen may be used..
