A second locus for autosomal dominant myopathy with proximal muscle weakness and early respiratory muscle involvement: a likely chromosomal locus on 2q21F Xiang
Department of Clinical Neuroscience, Karolinska Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden
Neuromuscul Disord 9:308-12. 1999..This result suggests that the gene responsible for the French form is likely to be located on chromosome 2q21...
Mutation screening in Rett syndrome patientsF Xiang
Department of Clinical Neuroscience, Karolinska Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden
J Med Genet 37:250-5. 2000..No gross differences were observed in neurones of several brain regions between normal controls and Rett patients...
Closely related Swedish Rett Syndrome females - none with MECP2 mutation revealedF Xiang
Department of Clinical Neuroscience, Karolinska Hospital, Stockholm, Sweden
Neuropediatrics 32:217-8. 2001..The series included females with both classical and forme fruste phenotypes. Rett syndrome thus might still be complex and genetically multifactorial...
Autosomal dominant myopathy with proximal weakness and early respiratory muscle involvement maps to chromosome 2qP Nicolao
Department of Molecular Medicine, Clinical Neurogenetic Unit, CMM L8 02 058, Karolinska Hospital, S 17176, Stockholm, Sweden
Am J Hum Genet 64:788-92. 1999..The affected individuals from these two families share an identical haplotype, which suggests a common origin...
Segregation of a totally skewed pattern of X chromosome inactivation in four familial cases of Rett syndrome without MECP2 mutation: implications for the diseaseL Villard
INSERM U491, Faculte de Medecine, 27 Bd Jean Moulin, 13385 Marseille Cedex 5, France
J Med Genet 38:435-42. 2001..5% of Rett syndrome cases are sporadic, although several familial cases have been reported. Mutations in the MECP2 gene were identified in approximately 70-80% of sporadic Rett syndrome cases...
MECP2 mutations in Swedish Rett syndrome clustersF Xiang
Clin Genet 61:384-5. 2002
Identification of four novel polymorphisms in the calcitonin/alpha-CGRP (CALCA) gene and an investigation of their possible associations with Parkinson disease, schizophrenia, and manic depressionS Buervenich
Department of Neuroscience, Karolinska Institute, Berzelius väg 3, 17177 Stockholm, Sweden
Hum Mutat 17:435-6. 2001..The 16-bp microdeletion polymorphism was present in a family with multiple cases of unipolar or bipolar depressive disorder. Using this polymorphism as marker, cosegregation with the phenotype was observed in the majority of individuals...
Huntington disease phenocopy is a familial prion diseaseR C Moore
Institute for Neurodegenerative Diseases, University of California San Francisco, San Francisco, CA 94143 0518, USA
Am J Hum Genet 69:1385-8. 2001....
