Epiloia or Bourneville's disease) is a common genetic condition which produces abnormal growths in the body from birth throughout life. It can severely affect development and health. Symptoms may include: * Tumours * Epilepsy * Learning Difficulties * Autism * Challenging Behaviour * Renal Complications * A Disfiguring Facial Rash There is no cure for Tuberous Sclerosis yet, only treatment for the symptoms. TS affects 1 in 7,000 and many people carry the gene without serious consequences other than a 1 in 2 risk of having a more severely affected child. TUBEROUS SCLEROSIS INTERNATIONAL The Tuberous Sclerosis International was formed in 1986 as a world organisation of national Tuberous Sclerosis Associations.

Welcome to Tuberous Sclerosis Canada Dedicated to the principles of providing encouragement and support to individuals and their families diagnosed with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC); raising public awareness and educating our communities of TSC; and to promote and support research aimed at the cure for TSC and/or control of Tuberous Sclerosis symptoms. What is Tuberous Sclerosis Complex? Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) is a congenital genetic disease characterized by certain skin abnormalities and birthmarks, tuber-like growths in the eyes, the brain, and other internal organs, and varying severity of epilepsy and mental retardation. Once considered a rare disorder, TSC affects about 1 in 6,000-10,000 persons in the population. It is often difficult to recognize as it manifests itself differently from person to person. For more information, please visit our What is Tuberous Sclerosis Complex page. How TSCST Can Help You If you or someone close to you has been diagnosed with Tuberous Sclerosis Complex, we can help. Tuberous Sclerosis Canada Sclérose Tubéreuse (TSCST) can provide you with up-to-date medical, genetic and neurological information.

About TRI Press Orphan Disease Proposal Drug Innovation 2000 Staff ... Legal View of Town Marina from The Rothberg Institute - click for cam - (requires Java) The Rothberg Award for Courage in Research is now sponsoring work at: The Rothberg Institute For Childhood Diseases is a non-profit organization dedicated to finding a cure for children suffering from Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC). We operate at the intersection of modern biology, computer science, and chemistry. The work we do on TSC will also have a direct impact on cancer research, and we will be testing the drugs we find as weapons against cancer. In addition the work we do to create a system to attack orphan diseases will form a prototype for work on other orphan diseases. TSC is a genetic disorder that leads to benign tumors in multiple organs, including the brain, kidneys, heart, eyes, lungs and other organs. During the first few years, the severity of TSC can range from mild skin abnormalities to, in severe cases, seizures, mental retardation or renal failure.

Tuberous Sclerosis Complex by Cheryl Howell What is Tuberous Sclerosis Complex? Physical Symptoms Genetic Analysis Current Research ... References What is Tuberous Sclerosis Complex? Tuberous Sclerosis Complex (TSC) was discovered in the 1880's by a French physician named Bourneville. TSC, also known as Bourneville's Disease and Epilola, is an incurable multisystem genetic disorder which can have a wide range of effects. Approximately one in 8,000 adults and one in 6,000 newborns are affected by TSC. Although TSC is often inherited, new mutations have been implicated in up to 75% of all cases ( TSA of Greece ). Males and females of equally likely to have Tuberous Sclerosis and the chance of passing it on to offspring is 50%. Physical Symptoms The physical symptoms of TSC which often lead to its diagnosis include hamartomaceous lesions of the brain, heart, kidneys, skin, lungs, and eyes, mental retardation, seizures, autism, fibromas of the finger and toenails, pitted teeth, and dermatological lesions. Three symptoms which constitute a positive diagnosis of TSC are seizures, mental retardation, and adenoma sebaceum, which are known as the clinical triad. People with TSC may exhibit only a few or many of these symptoms. Hamartomaceous lesions, or hamartomas, are tumour-like growths which are referred to as tubers. The most common tuber forms of the internal organs are cerebral hamartias and subependymal giant cell astrocytomas of the brain, rhabdomyomas of the heart, and angiomyolipomas of the kidneys (Kwiatkowski and Short, 1994 cited in Henske

Permission will usually be granted if a proper reference to the database is provided. Contributions from other centres will remain possesion of the contributor and will carry an appropriate reference. Groups interested in actively participating are asked to fill in the comment form further down this page. There are three groups of mutations: Gross Deletions/Insertions Micro-Mutations 3. Polymorphisms, which will be added at a later date. There is a submission form which can be used to send mutation data to the database curators.

Typical manifestations occur in the brain, skin,eye, heart, kidney, bones, lungs and intestine. Characteristic features include: in the brain, calcified growths which show on a CAT scan on the skin, hypomelanic (white) patches on the face, butterfly shaped rash, angiofibromas (adenoma sebaceum) on the forehead, fibrous plaque on the lumbar area, a shagreen patch (thickened and discoloured skin) in the kidney, cysts or angiomyolipomata (benign growth) in the heart, rhabdomyomata (benign growth of heart muscle) Epileptic seizures occur in 75 per cent of cases, while some degree of learning difficulty occurs in 50 per cent of cases. Additionally, behaviour problems and autistic tendencies are common features of the condition. However the condition is very variable in the severity and diversity of the presenting manifestations in individual cases. It is possible to have the condition while presenting with only one characteristic feature. Inheritance patterns Autosomal dominant inheritance with variable expression and reduced penetrance. It was thought that sporadic mutations accounted for 70 per cent of cases but detailed family histories, examinations and tests on first degree relatives show that sporadic mutations account for 50 per cent of new cases. It is therefore important to establish the family history prior to genetic counselling.

A Letter to Mick from Rose Chodzinski a Tuberous Sclerosis victim. Mick meets 10-year old Dadianna Westall, a victim of Tuberous Sclerosis. The National Tuberous Sclerosis Association It wasn't very long ago that I had never heard of tuberous sclerosis. Then one evening, my wife and I were invited to dinner by Frank Westall, a friend and sponsor of Trans-Oceanic. When introduced to his family, I met Dadianna, his 10-year old daughter who had tuberous sclerosis. An obvious relationship developed between Trans-Oceanic and Frank's local support group. It is an honor to be able to support and help The National Tuberous Sclerosis Association achieve their goal: (1) to increase awareness of tuberous sclerosis, and (2) to find the cause and cure for this dreaded disease. Trans-Oceanic's intention is to develop fund raising programs such as a 1-900 number that would follow the expedition's progress and a pledge-per-mile program where proceeds would go to the association. We are in the early stages of development, but are moving forward, so please keep posted. The following information is from a brochure provided by the NTSA.
