概括
患有22q11.2删除综合征的成年人患肥胖和代谢综合征 (MetS) 的比率明显更高. 仔细监测这些条件是至关重要的从一个年轻的年龄在个体有这种复制数变异 (CNV).
科学领域:
- 内分泌学 在内分泌学.
- 遗传学 遗传学 是一个
- 代谢疾病 代谢疾病
背景情况:
- 复制数变异 (CNV) 越来越多地被认为是各种疾病的贡献者.
- 关于单个CNVs,如22q11.2微删除对肥胖和代谢综合征 (MetS) 等内分泌疾病的具体影响的研究有限.
- 22q11.2删除综合征是一种众所周知的遗传疾病,由致病性CNV引起.
研究的目的:
- 在被诊断为22q11.2删除综合征的成年人中调查泛型肥胖,腹部肥胖和MetS的患病率.
- 将这些患病率与一般人群中观察到的患病率进行比较.
- 在这个队列中探索人口统计和临床因素 (年龄,性别,先天性心脏缺陷,吸烟,抗精神病药物使用) 与肥胖/MetS之间的潜在关联.
主要方法:
- 研究了一组103名已确认22q11.2删除的成年人.
- 评估了普遍肥胖 (BMI ≥30 kg/m2),腹部肥胖 (腰围值) 和 MetS (联合临时声明标准) 的流行情况.
- 使用统计分析,包括一般线性模型,与人口数据进行比较,并检查与各种因素的关联.
主要成果:
- 与人口数据相比,在22q11.2删除组中发现普遍肥胖 (32.0%与15.7%),腹部肥胖 (51.5%与36.1%) 和MetS (33.0%与15.2%) 的流行率明显较高.
- 在未服用过抗精神病药物的人群中,观察到年龄和BMI (r=0.54) 和年龄和腰围 (r=0.60) 之间存在显著的正相关性.
- 年龄是研究队列中BMI,腰围和MetS的唯一独立预测因素.
结论:
- 肥胖和MetS在22q11.2删除综合征的成年人中非常普遍.

Obesity
379
The Body Mass Index (BMI) is a numerical value derived from a person's weight and height, used to categorize individuals into weight ranges. It is calculated using the formula: weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared. Obesity is a health condition characterized by excessive accumulation of adipose tissue that poses health risks, often diagnosed with a BMI ≥ 30. This excess fat storage occurs when surplus dietary calories are converted into triglycerides and stored in...

Inborn Errors of Metabolism
131
Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a protein metabolism disorder characterized by high blood levels of the amino acid phenylalanine. This results from a mutation in the gene responsible for phenylalanine hydroxylase, an enzyme that converts phenylalanine into tyrosine. When this enzyme is deficient, phenylalanine builds up in the blood, leading to symptoms such as vomiting, rashes, seizures, growth deficiency, and severe mental retardation. An early diagnosis and a diet restricting phenylalanine intake...

Diabetes: Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Complications
506
For most patients, experiencing several weeks of polyuria, polydipsia, fatigue, and significant weight loss may indicate the presence of diabetes. Furthermore, adults displaying the phenotypic appearance of type 2 diabetes (particularly those who are obese and not initially insulin-requiring), may have islet cell autoantibodies, suggesting autoimmune-mediated β cell destruction and a diagnosis of latent autoimmune diabetes of adults (LADA). The categorization of glucose homeostasis is...

Agouti: A Lethal Allele
Lucien Cuénot discovered lethal alleles in 1905 while studying the inheritance of coat color in mice. The agouti gene is responsible for the color of the coat in mice. This gene codes for an agouti-signaling protein, which is responsible for melanin distribution in mammals. The wild-type allele gives rise to gray-brown coat color in mice, while the mutant allele gives rise to yellow coat color. In addition to coat color, the agouti gene is associated with the yellow...

Genomic Imprinting and Inheritance
33.3K
Diploid organisms inherit genetic material through chromosomes from both parents. Copies of the same gene are known as alleles. In most cases, both alleles are simultaneously expressed and allow various cellular processes to function optimally. If one of the alleles is missing or mutated, the expression of the other allele can compensate; however, this is not true for all genes.
The expression of some genes depends on which parent passed the gene to the offspring, through a phenomenon known as...

Glucose Transporters
22.5K
Glucose transporters facilitate the transport of glucose across the cell membrane. In addition to glucose, some glucose transporters can also aid the movement of other hexoses such as fructose, mannose, and galactose.
Facilitated diffusion-glucose transporters (GLUTs) are encoded by the solute-linked carrier (SLC) family 2, subfamily A gene family, or SLC2A. The 14 GLUT protein members are distributed into three classes:
