The care provided is individually tailored to meet the unique needs of each patient and family. This program uses a team of expert health care providers who specialize in FA, applying leading-edge research developed by University of Minnesota scientists. What is Fanconi Anemia? Fanconi Anemia is a rare, inherited disease which causes bone marrow failure. Those with FA have inherited one FA gene from their father and one from their mother. There are at least eight different genes that cause FA. Approximately 1 in 80 to 600 people carry the gene. Carriers are healthy and do not know that they carry the FA gene. If both parents are carriers, each child they have has a 25 percent chance of being affected by Fanconi Anemia. FA affects boys and girls equally. Patients with Fanconi Anemia may have a number of medical problems. Some of the treatments available through the Fanconi Anemia Comprehensive Care Program are:

The disease may also cause problems with the heart or kidneys and abnormalities of the arms and legs. Children and adults with Fanconi anemia usually have short stature, and other growth measurements may also be below normal. Other common problems include bleeding episodes and easy bruising, hormonal problems, and infertility. Fanconi anemia is usually diagnosed during childhood, and many children with this disease do not survive beyond young adulthood.

It is called a “chromosome breakage” condition. This means that people with Fanconi anemia have an unusually high number of breaks along their chromosomes.

Laboratory findings include aplastic anemia , increased chromosome breakage in cells grown in the presence of a chemical which damages DNA mutation in one of the 8 separate genes which have been completely identified ("cloned"), or assignment to one of the 11 or more sub-categories into which patients with FA can be classified (known as "complementation groups"). Bone marrow failure is NOT required for the diagnosis, and ~25% of all persons eventually diagnosed as being affected by FA do not have the typical FA findings on physical examination. FA has been diagnosed at ages ranging from birth to >50 years of age. Males and females are affected equally. What are the major findings on physical examination?

FA group D has been shown to be comprised of two separate proteins, FANCD1 and FANCD2. Mutations in BRCA2 can cause FANCD1. FANCD2 has been shown to colocalize with BRCA1 in ionizing radiation-induced foci. FANCD2 is involved in genomic resistance to DNA cross-linking reagents, and the arrest of DNA synthesis following exposure to ionizing radiation. FANCD2 has been shown to directly interact with NBS1 Purity: Protein G affinity purified.

Diseases: Fanconi Anemia anconi anemia is a blood disorder characterized by pancytopenia (deficiency of red blood cells, white blood cells and platelets), increased risk for cancer, and congenital birth defects. The disease is highly variable and is frequently associated with cardiac, kidney and limb abnormalities. Short stature is commonly observed in children and adults with Fanconi anemia, and other growth measurements may also be below normal. Bleeding episodes and bruising are common, as are hormonal problems and infertility. The majority of individuals with Fanconi anemia are diagnosed during childhood, but many do not survive beyond young adulthood. This is frequently a result of leukemia or other cancers, which are due to bone marrow failure. Treatment for Fanconi anemia is primarily preventive. Individuals with Fanconi anemia may pursue bone marrow transplantation on an experimental basis, however there is to date no consistently effective treatment. In order to detect cancers early, individuals with Fanconi anemia should arrange for frequent screenings. In addition, avoidance of sun exposure and other agents which may damage the chromosomes is imperative. Although five subtypes of Fanconi Anemia exist, it is only Type C that occurs with increased frequency among individuals with Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry. It is estimated that approximately 1 in 89 Ashkenazi Jewish individuals are carriers of Type C. All types of Fanconi anemia are inherited in an

This allows Ashkenazi Jews to be easily tested for Fanconi anemia. Approximately one in 89 Ashkenazi Jews is a carrier of Fanconi anemia. Fanconi Anemia usually reveals itself when children are between the ages of 3-12 years present with extreme fatigue, and frequent infections or recurrent nosebleeds and bruising. Lab tests reveal normocytic anemia with neutropenia. Short stature, microcephaly, hypogenitalism, strabismus, anomalies of the thumbs, radii, and kidneys, mental retardation, and microphthalmia may all be associated with the disease.

Ashkenazi Disorders: Mendelian Fanconi Anemia Fanconi anemia is a disorder characterized by a reduced production of all types of blood cells in the body. The most serious problem associated with this disorder is an increased risk for cancer. The underlying problem in this condition affects how the genetic information is copied in the cells of the body. The disorder can be seen in individuals from any ethnic background, but one specific gene alteration has been noted in individuals of Jewish ancestry. No effective treatment exists at this time. Disease frequency: Unknown Carrier frequency: Approximately 1 in 89 for a specific gene alteration noted in those of Jewish ancestry. Diagnosis: By a specialized type of chromosome testing or specific testing of one of the genes involved in Fanconi anemia. Inheritance: Autosomal Recessive Carrier testing: Available by testing for a specific gene alteration. Testing detects 95% of carriers for this specific type of Fanconi anemia. Prenatal diagnosis: Available through genetic testing in couples with a previous affected child or couples identified as being carriers.
