Cushing Syndrome II: Pathophysiology01:19

Cushing Syndrome II: Pathophysiology

Cortisol production is normally governed by the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal (HPA) axis, which maintains hormonal balance through tightly regulated feedback mechanisms. Disruption of this regulatory system is central to the development of Cushing syndrome, whether the excess cortisol originates from external medications or internal pathology. Persistent cortisol elevation alters metabolism, immune function, and endocrine signaling, producing the characteristic clinical features of the...

Cystic Fibrosis: Pathogenesis

Cystic fibrosis (CF), an autosomal recessive disorder, significantly affects the function of exocrine glands. This genetically inherited disease is characterized by the production of thick and sticky mucus, which can severely affect various organs and systems in the body.
CF is primarily caused by a genetic mutation in a chromosome 7 gene coding for the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) protein. The most common gene mutation leading to CF is the ΔF508 mutation, but...
Cohesins02:20

Cohesins

Cohesin protein complexes are a molecular glue that holds two sister chromatids together. They play an important role both in mitosis and meiosis. In mitosis, all cohesin complexes present on the chromosomes are removed before the start of the anaphase stage.
Cohesin complexes in Meiotic Division
Meiosis involves two distinct rounds of chromosomal segregation and cell divisions— Meiosis I followed by Meiosis II – producing four daughter cells. Meiosis I includes the separation of homologous...
Sex-linked Disorders01:43

Sex-linked Disorders

Like autosomes, sex chromosomes contain a variety of genes necessary for normal body function. When a mutation in one of these genes results in biological deficits, the disorder is considered sex-linked.
X-Inactivation01:58

X-Inactivation

The human X chromosome contains over ten times the number of genes as in the Y chromosome. Since males have only one X chromosome, and females have two, one might expect females to produce twice as many of the proteins, with undesirable results.
Cushing Syndrome I: Introduction01:26

Cushing Syndrome I: Introduction

Cushing syndrome refers to the collection of clinical manifestations that arise when tissues are exposed to excessive amounts of cortisol or cortisol-like medications over an extended period. Cortisol, a glucocorticoid produced by the adrenal cortex, regulates metabolism, immune responses, and the body’s adaptation to stress. When its concentration remains chronically elevated, these physiological pathways become dysregulated, resulting in the characteristic features of the syndrome.Exogenous...

Area of Science:

  • Genetics
  • Pediatrics
  • Clinical Medicine

Background:

  • Cockayne syndrome (CS) is a rare, autosomal recessive, multisystem disorder.
  • CS is characterized by premature aging, neurological abnormalities, and cachexia.
  • The condition has significant impact on child development and quality of life.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a clinical case of Cockayne syndrome.
  • To emphasize the diagnostic features of this rare genetic disorder.
  • To contribute to the understanding of CS presentation in children.

Main Methods:

  • Clinical diagnosis based on characteristic signs and symptoms.
  • Patient evaluation included developmental assessment, neurological examination, and ophthalmological review.
  • Family history of consanguineous marriage was noted.

Main Results:

  • A 10-year-old boy presented with delayed milestones and deaf mutism.
  • The patient exhibited spastic paraplegia, dwarfism, and a salt and pepper fundus.
  • Typical facial features and a photosensitive rash on the butterfly area of the face were observed.

Conclusions:

  • The clinical presentation strongly suggested Cockayne syndrome.
  • Consanguineous marriage can increase the risk of recessive genetic disorders like CS.
  • Early recognition of clinical features is crucial for diagnosis and management.
