    Extractions: What We Do Who We Are The Principals Contact Us ... Buccal Swab Kits / Order Using genomic DNA obtained from buccal (cheek) swabs or blood (5cc in EDTA), all 9 exons of the GFAP gene are tested using bi-directional sequence analysis. All of the mutations identified in AD have been heterozygous missense mutations that are suspected to cause a gain in GFAP function. Many of these point mutations affect an arginine residue. There are mutation hot spots in exons 1 and 4, although mutations have been identified in other regions of the gene. Mutations found in infantile AD have also been seen in juvenile and adult forms of AD, suggesting that other factors contribute to the expression of the disease. A number of studies have found that 90-95% of individuals diagnosed with Alexander disease have GFAP mutations. Thus, sequence analysis is expected to have a very high sensitivity for this disorder.

    http://www.waisman.wisc.edu/alexander/parents.html
    
    Extractions: Alexander disease, a leukodystrophy, is a progressive and usually fatal neurological disorder in which the destruction of white matter in the brain is accompanied by the formation of abnormal deposits known as Rosenthal fibers. Rosenthal fibers are aggregations of protein that occur in the astrocytes, which are nonneuronal, supporting cells of the brain. These aggregates are found occasionally in other disorders, but not with the abundance or particular distribution in the brain that occurs in Alexander disease. The most common form of Alexander disease is the infantile form, which usually becomes apparent during the first two years of life. Typically there is both mental and physical developmental delay, followed by loss of milestones, an abnormal increase in head size, and often seizures. The juvenile form of Alexander disease is less common and generally has onset between the ages of four and fifteen. These children may have excessive vomiting, difficulty swallowing and speaking, poor coordination, and loss of motor control. Survival is quite variable, with rare juvenile cases surviving several decades. Even rarer adult-onset forms of Alexander disease have been reported that sometimes appear to be inherited in an autosomal dominant pattern. The disease occurs in both sexes, and there are no ethnic, racial, geographic, or cultural/economic differences in its distribution. At present, there is no animal model of Alexander disease. Transgenic mice with added copies of a normal human GFAP gene developed Rosenthal fibers and died at an early age, but did not display all of the features of true Alexander disease.

    Extractions: Neurodegenerative disorders Our lab has been tracing cell lineages in the developing mammalian CNS to study the origins of neurons and glia from immature neuroectodermal cells. Using recombinant retroviruses to transfer genes into progenitor cells, we have followed the migration and differentiation of immature cells of germinal zones in vivo and have determined time- and location-specific patterns of glial development. We are examining what roles environmental vs. lineage-controlled factors play in specifying cell fates. We are particularly interested in how progenitors migrate through the developing brain, focusing on molecular mechanisms that regulate the direction, the beginning and the cessation of migration. Our lab is also starting to examine these same type of mechanisms as they apply to glial tumor migration through the brain.
