Disease - Fanconi´s Syndrome - Hartford, Connecticut Lowe´s disease (oculocerebrorenal syndrome), a rare genetic disorder of the eyes,brain, and kidneys, can also cause Fanconi´s syndrome. http://www.saintfranciscare.com/12161.cfm
Extractions: Back Back to main Health Information page Kidney anatomy Definition: Some compounds that may be lost in the urine include glucose, amino acids, uric acid, and phosphate. Loss of these compounds can cause problems, such as growth failure, decreased bone mineralization (rickets), and abnormal bone mineralization (osteomalacia). Type two renal tubular acidosis (RTA) occurs when too much bicarbonate is excreted in the urine, causing excess acid in the blood (acidosis). Another problem that may result is dehydration caused by excess urination. Alternative Names: De Toni-Fanconi syndrome Causes And Risk: The kidneys can also be damaged by prescribed drugs such as cidofovir (used to treat AIDS-related cytomegalovirus disease), gentamicin, tetracycline used after its expiration date, and azathioprine (used to suppress the immune system after organ transplantation, or to treat certain autoimmune disorders). Symptoms: Excess amounts of the following substances in the urine: amino acids, glucose, phosphate, magnesium, potassium, bicarbonate, and sodium.
Extractions: Ahmet AYDIN, Asým CENANÝ Background.- The Lowe syndrome or oculocerebrorenal syndrome is a rare X linked recessive hereditary diseases which involves ocular defects, nervous system anomalies and renal dysfunction. The stubborness, temper tantrums and complex repetitive movements (stereotypy) are seen frequently in these patients. Whether these behavior patterns simply reflect the multiple disabilities found in some developmentally impaired irýdividuals with or without Lowe syndrome or is a specific genetically - determined behavioral phenotype of Lowe syndrome is unknown. Observation.- In this paper a 12-year old male patient with Lowe syndrome has been described with behavioral anomalies like stubborness, temper tantrums and stereotypic behaviours.

Chemical modification using thiol-directed agents and site-directed mutagenesis have been used to investigate the crucial role of an active site cysteine residue within the substrate-binding domain of human type I Ins(1,4,5) P 5-phosphatase. Irreversible inhibition of enzymic activity is provoked by chemical modification of the enzyme by N P . The results indicate that NEM binds at the active site of the enzyme with a stoichiometry of 0.9 mol of NEM per mol of enzyme. A single [ C]NEM-modified peptide was isolated after a -chymotrypsin proteolysis of the radiolabelled enzyme and reverse-phase HPLC. Sequence analysis of the active site-labelled peptide (i.e. MNTRCPAWCD) demonstrated that Cys

M. Gobernado, M. Lousa, A. Gimeno and M. Gonsalvez We performed biochemical studies on isolated mitochondria from a muscle biopsy specimen in a patient with Lowe's syndrome. Respiratory controls of mitochondrial preparations with substrates reducing nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide and with a flavoprotein-linked substrate were markedly diminished, but the oxygen consumption was normal with ascorbate and tetramethylphenylenediamine as substrates, which suggested a defect in
Extractions: National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) Overview of Rare Diseases Research Activities The National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI) led the National Institutes of Healths (NIH) contribution to the International Human Genome Project (HGP). With the achievement of its final goal, the finished sequence of the human genome in April 2003, this project was successfully completed ahead of schedule and under budget and has already begun to change the way we address rare diseases. In October 2004, the International Human Genome Sequencing Consortium, led in the United States by the NHGRI and the Department of Energy, published an analysis of that finished human genome sequence in the journal Nature . This analysis reduces the estimate of the number of human protein-coding genes from 35,000 to only 20,00025,000a surprisingly low number for our species, considering that only a decade ago most scientists thought we had over 100,000 genes. The NHGRI has moved forward into the genomic era with a wide range of powerful new extramural research initiatives that will accelerate genome research and its application to human health. As well, in its Division of Intramural Research (DIR) scientists are using the techniques and tools produced by the HGP and developing new ones to study the fundamental mechanisms of inherited and acquired genetic disorders, including many rare disorders, to lead ultimately to improved diagnostic, prevention, and treatment strategies.
