Cri du chat syndrome. Medical search

An infantile syndrome characterized by a cat-like cry, failure to thrive, microcephaly, MENTAL RETARDATION, spastic quadriparesis, micro- and retrognathia, glossoptosis, bilateral epicanthus, hypertelorism, and tiny external genitalia. It is caused by a deletion of the short arm of chromosome 5 (5p-).

The domestic cat, Felis catus, of the carnivore family FELIDAE, comprising over 30 different breeds. The domestic cat is descended primarily from the wild cat of Africa and extreme southwestern Asia. Though probably present in towns in Palestine as long ago as 7000 years, actual domestication occurred in Egypt about 4000 years ago. (From Walker's Mammals of the World, 6th ed, p801)

A neuropsychological-genetic profile of atypical cri du chat syndrome: implications for prognosis. (1/39)

Cri du chat syndrome is associated with a deletion on the short arm of chromosome 5. The main diagnostic feature is a high pitched, cat-like cry which has recently been localised to 5p15.3 and is separate from the remaining clinical features of the syndrome, which have been localised to 5p15.2. The present study describes a family of four who have a deletion slightly distal (5p15.3) to the critical region. Detailed neuropsychological evaluations indicated a similar pattern of cognitive performance to that reported for subjects with typical CDCS but with only minimal intellectual impairment. In addition, in this family the 5p deletion is transmitted in an autosomal dominant fashion, contrasting with most cases of CDCS, which are either de novo or occur as an unbalanced product of a balanced translocation in a normal parent. This study confirms the importance of differentiating between 5p deletions that coincide with the typical cri du chat phenotype which includes severe to profound learning disability and deletions that only delete the distal critical region that coincides with a milder degree of cognitive impairment and a much improved prognosis.

Cri-du-chat syndrome: clinical profile and prenatal diagnosis. (2/39)

Prenatal diagnosis of cri-du-chat syndrome is described in 2 pregnancies. In Case 1, the mother was a balanced translocation carrier and had 2 previously affected off springs. Prenatal diagnosis by chorion villus sampling and cordocentesis was successful in diagnosing an affected conceptus and the pregnancy was electively terminated. Case 2 was referred for nonimmune foetal hydrops and cordocentesis revealed deletion 5p. This second case was noteworthy for the fact that deletion 5p has not been reported to cause foetal hydrops.

Clinical and molecular characterisation of 80 patients with 5p deletion: genotype-phenotype correlation. (3/39)

The majority of deletions of the short arm of chromosome 5 are associated with cri du chat syndrome (CdCS) and patients show phenotypic and cytogenetic variability. To perform a genotype-phenotype correlation, 80 patients from the Italian CdCS Register were analysed. Molecular cytogenetic analysis showed that 62 patients (77.50%) had a 5p terminal deletion characterised by breakpoint intervals ranging from p13 (D5S763) to p15.2 (D5S18). Seven patients (8.75%) had a 5p interstitial deletion, four (5%) a de novo translocation, and three (3.75%) a familial translocation. Of the remaining four patients, three (3.75%) had de novo 5p anomalies involving two rearranged cell lines and one (1.25%) had a 5p deletion originating from a paternal inversion. The origin of the deleted chromosome 5 was paternal in 55 out of 61 patients (90.2%). Genotype-phenotype correlation in 62 patients with terminal deletions highlighted a progressive severity of clinical manifestation and psychomotor retardation related to the size of the deletion. The analysis of seven patients with interstitial deletions and one with a small terminal deletion confirmed the existence of two critical regions, one for dysmorphism and mental retardation in p15.2 and the other for the cat cry in p15.3. Results from one patient permitted the cat cry region to be distally narrowed from D5S13 to D5S731. Furthermore, this study lends support to the hypothesis of a separate region in p15.3 for the speech delay. (+info)

Growth study of cri du chat syndrome. (4/39)

We compared the growth of children with cri du chat (5p-) syndrome with the 1990 UK growth curves. Most subjects had impaired growth, particularly of head circumference. The more emaciated the child the more pronounced the microcephaly, showing the need for growth and nutrition monitoring. (+info)

Deletion of the telomerase reverse transcriptase gene and haploinsufficiency of telomere maintenance in Cri du chat syndrome. (5/39)

Cri du chat syndrome (CdCS) results from loss of the distal portion of chromosome 5p, where the telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) gene is localized (5p15.33). hTERT is the rate-limiting component for telomerase activity that is essential for telomere-length maintenance and sustained cell proliferation. Here, we show that a concomitant deletion of the hTERT allele occurs in all 10 patients with CdCS whom we examined. Induction of hTERT mRNA in proliferating lymphocytes derived from five of seven patients was lower than that in unaffected control individuals (P<.05). The patient lymphocytes exhibited shorter telomeres than age-matched unaffected individuals (P<.0001). A reduction in replicative life span and a high rate of chromosome fusions were observed in cultured patient fibroblasts. Reconstitution of telomerase activity by ectopic expression of hTERT extended the telomere length, increased the population doublings, and prevented the end-to-end fusion of chromosomes. We conclude that hTERT is limiting and haploinsufficient for telomere maintenance in humans in vivo. Accordingly, the hTERT deletion may be one genetic element contributing to the phenotypic changes in CdCS. (+info)

Heterozygous telomerase deficiency in mouse and man: when less is definitely not more. (6/39)

Telomerase, whose core components are a reverse transcriptase (TERT) and an integral RNA (TERC) maintains telomere ends. In somatic cells in the absence of telomerase telomeres get shorter leading to replicative cell senescence. In cancer cells abundant telomerase is present and cells do not senesce. Hence levels of telomerase may be crucial in regulating senescence and the transition to the neoplastic state. Heterozygous TERC mutations in man have been shown to underlie the rare inherited skin and bone marrow failure condition dyskeratosis congenita and a number of patients initially classified as idiopathic aplastic anemia have also been found to be mutated in one allele of the TERC gene. Families in which TERC mutations are segregating show disease anticipation, the severity of the disease increasing in successive generations due to decreasing telomere length. These data, along with biochemical analysis of mutated Terc and studies of Terc deficient mice show that in man and mouse haploinsufficiency for TERC leads to inability to correctly maintain telomeres, and highlights the importance of finely controlled telomerase levels in striking a balance between the processes of aging and cancer. Here we review several scenarios in which telomerase levels are disturbed, in human diseases or following genetic manipulation in mice. (+info)

High-resolution mapping of genotype-phenotype relationships in cri du chat syndrome using array comparative genomic hybridization. (7/39)

We have used array comparative genomic hybridization to map DNA copy-number changes in 94 patients with cri du chat syndrome who had been carefully evaluated for the presence of the characteristic cry, speech delay, facial dysmorphology, and level of mental retardation (MR). Most subjects had simple deletions involving 5p (67 terminal and 12 interstitial). Genotype-phenotype correlations localized the region associated with the cry to 1.5 Mb in distal 5p15.31, between bacterial artificial chromosomes (BACs) containing markers D5S2054 and D5S676; speech delay to 3.2 Mb in 5p15.32-15.33, between BACs containing D5S417 and D5S635; and the region associated with facial dysmorphology to 2.4 Mb in 5p15.2-15.31, between BACs containing D5S208 and D5S2887. These results overlap and refine those reported in previous publications. MR depended approximately on the 5p deletion size and location, but there were many cases in which the retardation was disproportionately severe, given the 5p deletion. All 15 of these cases, approximately two-thirds of the severely retarded patients, were found to have copy-number aberrations in addition to the 5p deletion. Restriction of consideration to patients with only 5p deletions clarified the effect of such deletions and suggested the presence of three regions, MRI-III, with differing effect on retardation. Deletions including MRI, a 1.2-Mb region overlapping the previously defined cri du chat critical region but not including MRII and MRIII, produced a moderate level of retardation. Deletions restricted to MRII, located just proximal to MRI, produced a milder level of retardation, whereas deletions restricted to the still-more proximal MRIII produced no discernible phenotype. However, MR increased as deletions that included MRI extended progressively into MRII and MRIII, and MR became profound when all three regions were deleted. (+info)

Determination of the 'critical region' for cat-like cry of Cri-du-chat syndrome and analysis of candidate genes by quantitative PCR. (8/39)

Cri-du-chat (CDC, OMIM 123450) is a chromosomal syndrome that results from partial deletions on the short arm of chromosome 5. The clinical features of CDC normally include high-pitched cat-like cry, mental retardation, microcephaly, hypertelorism and epicanthic folds. The cat-like cry is the most prominent clinical characteristic in newborn children and is usually considered as diagnostic for the CDC syndrome. Using a strategy of 'phenotype dissection', the critical region for cat-like cry was mapped to the chromosomal segment 5p15.3-5p15.2 in previous reports. In this study, the distal breakpoints of two interstitial deletions in two clinical distinctive CDC patients are analysed, one with and one without the cat-like cry. Using PCR, the critical region for the cat-like cry is mapped to a short 640 kbp region on chromosome 5p. Genome analysis of this critical region reveals a gene-rich sequence containing five known genes, five putative genes and three spliced EST sequences, altogether 71 predicted exons. Three genes, FLJ25076, a homolog to a ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBC-E2, FLJ20303, a nucleolar protein NOP2, which may play a role in the regulation of the cell cycle and MGC5309, a protein with similarity to Nut2, a Drosophila transcriptional coactivator, have been characterized and expression profiles determined by quantitative PCR. These results suggest that one candidate gene, FLJ25076, encodes a ubiquitin-conjugated enzyme E2 type, which is locally expressed in thoracic and scalp tissues. The other two genes are expressed uniformly in all tissues tested, which suggest that they are housekeeping genes. (+info)

Detection rates were also 100% for Prader-Willi, Angelman, and 1p36 deletion syndromes and 97.8% for 22q11.2 deletion syndrome. (medscape.com)
In a series of studies, the role of operant reinforcement of phenotypic problem behaviours in Angelman, Cri du Chat and Cornelia de Lange syndromes was explored. (bham.ac.uk)
Results showed that self-injury was more common in Cornelia de Lange syndrome and specific forms of aggressive behaviour were common in Angelman syndrome. (bham.ac.uk)
Experimental functional analysis and structured descriptive assessments were utilised to examine gene-environment interactions in the syndromes and broadly, challenging behaviour in the Cornelia de Lange syndrome group evidenced a stronger association with pain, whereas challenging behaviour in the Angelman syndrome group evidenced a stronger association with positive social reinforcement. (bham.ac.uk)
On this website you will find information on the characteristics and behaviour associated with three rare genetic syndromes: Angelman, Cornelia de Lange and Cri du Chat syndromes. (findresources.co.uk)
Angelman syndrome -- a condition characterized by severe mental deficiency, developmental delay and growth deficiency, puppet-like gait and frequent laughter unconnected to emotions of happiness. (kumc.edu)
Angelman syndrome ( AS) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterised by severe learning difficulties, ataxia, a seizure disorder with a characteristic EEG, subtle dysmorphic facial features, and a happy, sociable disposition. (bmj.com)
1 This condition, originally known as the "happy puppet" syndrome, is now known by the less pejorative term of Angelman syndrome. (bmj.com)
In 1987 Magenis et al 2 identified a deletion of chromosome 15q11-13 in two patients with Angelman syndrome and subsequent work has shown that Angelman syndrome can be caused by a variety of genetic mechanisms which involve this imprinted region of the genome. (bmj.com)
3 In recent years clearer delineation of the clinical phenotype of Angelman syndrome and improved diagnostic testing has led to improved recognition of the condition and the incidence of Angelman syndrome is now estimated to be between 1 in 10 000 and 1 in 40 000. (bmj.com)
Molecular genetic studies have begun to elucidate the role of genes within the 15q11-13 region in the pathophysiology of Angelman syndrome 9 and have also shed light on the more general phenomenon of genomic imprinting. (bmj.com)
Although many patients with AS have these characteristics, 11 it is now clear that the clinical spectrum of Angelman syndrome is much broader than was originally thought. (bmj.com)

The study, published November 9 by Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, uses a semiconductor sequencing platform to identify small chromosomal deletions or duplications, such as occur in Cri du Chat Syndrome and DiGeorge Syndrome, with a simple blood test from the expectant mother. (news-medical.net)
This study confirms the importance of differentiating between 5p deletions that coincide with the typical cri du chat phenotype which includes severe to profound learning disability and deletions that only delete the distal critical region that coincides with a milder degree of cognitive impairment and a much improved prognosis. (bmj.com)
We have used array comparative genomic hybridization to map DNA copy-number changes in 94 patients with cri du chat syndrome who had been carefully evaluated for the presence of the characteristic cry, speech delay, facial dysmorphology, and level of mental retardation (MR). Most subjects had simple deletions involving 5p (67 terminal and 12 interstitial). (elsevier.com)
Deletions including MRI, a 1.2-Mb region overlapping the previously defined cri du chat critical region but not including MRII and MRIII, produced a moderate level of retardation. (elsevier.com)

Jerome Lejeune a geneticist identified Cri du chat syndrome in the year 1963 he is also the person who discovered the genetic abnormality which causes Down syndrome. (antiessays.com)
Dr. Jerome Lejeune 1st described cri du chat syndrome (also known as Lejeune's syndrome or chromosome 5p deletion syndrome) in 1963. (jewelautismcentre.com)
With the help of the new karyotype techniques of the 1950s, Dr. Jerome Lejeune identified this syndrome as the absence of genetic material on the 5th chromosome. (jewelautismcentre.com)
The most distinctive characteristic, and the one for which the syndrome was originally named in 1963 by geneticist Jerome Lejeune, is the distinctive high-pitched, monotone, cat-like cry. (gardn.org.au)
The geneticist Jerome Lejeune identified Cri-du-chat syndrome in 1963. (utah.edu)
The disorder was first described by Dr. Jerome Lejeune in 1963, who named it Cri Du Chat , or cry of the cat , based on the characteristic, cat-like cry of affected children. (prentrom.com)

Overall, the studies provide evidence that challenging behaviour in genetic syndromes can be influenced by environmental factors. (bham.ac.uk)
It has an association with other neuromuscular abnormalities and identified genetic syndromes in 50% of cases [1-5]. (biomedcentral.com)
In 2010, Chris Oliver and colleagues found very high levels of positive mood in a group of individuals with Cri du Chat syndrome when compared to individuals with other rare genetic syndromes. (findresources.co.uk)
There is evidence from research that challenging or problematic behaviors are more common in certain genetic syndromes than might be expected based on the individual's level of intellectual disability (ID) and other characteristics, such as communication difficulties. (kennedykrieger.org)
As with most genetic syndromes, there are common characteristics shared among individuals diagnosed with PWS. (kennedykrieger.org)
