Topic: Mitral valve prolapse, familial, X linked

	Selected Encyclopedia of Heart Diseases and Conditions
		Floppy valve, also known as "mitral valve prolapse," can be caused by diseases of the connective tissue such as Marfan syndrome.
		Other causes of mitral regurgitation include damage to the muscles attached to the mitral valves, rheumatic disease, and calcification of the opening between the left atrium and left ventricle.
		Mitral stenosis can be detected by listening to the heart: the first sound is accentuated, while the second sound is followed by an opening snap of the valves.

	F10 - coagulation factor X
		Human blood coagulation factor X has two N-linked oligosaccharides at Asn39 and Asn49 residues and two O-linked oligosaccharides at Thr17 and Thr29 residues in the region of the factor X activation peptide (XAP) which is cleaved off during its activation by factor IXa.
		The interaction of blood coagulation factor X and its Gla-containing fragments with negatively charged phospholipid membranes composed of 25 mol% phosphatidylserine (PtdSer) and 75 mol% phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) was studied by surface plasmon resonance.
		Human factor XSanto Domingo is a form of coagulation factor X in which a mutation within the signal peptide region of the precursor protein has been correlated genetically with a severe deficiency of factor X in the affected individual.

	Gene Mapping of Familial Autosomal Dominant Dilated Cardiomyopathy to Chromosome 10q21-23 -- Bowles et al. 98 (6): 1355 ...
		Family members in which criteria for ventricular dilatation without dysfunction was identified were classified as clinically uncertain (5).
		Mitral regurgitation was diagnosed either by an audible mitral regurgitation murmur or by evidence of at least mild mitral regurgitation by Doppler and color Doppler echocardiographic studies.
		Sanyal and colleagues (54) demonstrated that mitral valve prolapse and mitral regurgitation result from degeneration of the posterior papillary muscles or ventricular myocardium in these patients, causing instability of the mitral apparatus and secondary prolapse.

	Partly Mapped Human Disease Genes
		Familial glomerulocystic kidney disease (GCKD) is a dominantly inherited condition characterized by glomerular cysts and variable renal size and function; the molecular genetic etiology is unknown.
		We conclude that there is genetic heterogeneity in familial GCKD and that the hypoplastic subtype is a part of the clinical spectrum of the renal cysts and diabetes syndrome that is associated with HNF-1beta mutations.
		Mutations in FOXC2 (MFH-1), a forkhead family transcription factor, are responsible for the hereditary lymphedema-distichiasis syndrome.

	What is Ehlers Danlos Syndrome? (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		In addition, some individuals with this subtype may have a deformity of one of the heart valves (mitral valve prolapse), allowing blood to leak backwards into the left upper chamber of the heart (mitral insufficiency), and/or, more rarely, abnormal widening (dilatation) of a region of the aorta, the major blood vessel of the body.
		Familial hypermobility syndrome is characterized by looseness (laxity) and excessive extension of the joints; recurrent dislocation of certain joints, such as those of the shoulders and knees; and, in some cases, dislocation of the hip joints at birth (congenital).
		In addition, in some families (kindreds) affected by a particular EDS subtype who have identified gene mutations, precise genetic testing may be available that enables diagnosis before or after birth (prenatal or postnatal diagnosis).

	Fragile X Syndrome
		Fragile X Syndrome is a defect of the X chromosome which causes mild mental retardation.
		Fragile X Syndrome is characterized by connective tissue abnormalities such as joints which may be extended beyond normal limits (hyperextensible) and heart problems including mitral valve prolapse.
		Therefore, when an X chromosome in a female is affected by this syndrome, the normal X chromosome can compensate for the defect, while males tend to have the more severe form of the disorder.

		The analysis of 1,908 isolates cultured from the dental plaque of 76 subjects from 20 families (20 married couples and 36 of their children) resulted in the identification of 144 genotypes containing 114 strains of Streptococcus mutans (serotype c, 66.7%; e, 12.5%) and 30 strains of S. sobrinus (d, 13.2%; g, 7.6%).

		A possible example of gonadal mosaicism for the DMD locus was discussed by Wood and McGillivray (1988), who described a family in which a female ancestor of an individual with Duchenne muscular dystrophy seemed to have transmitted 3 distinct types of X chromosome to her offspring, as indicated by RFLP analysis.
		Witkowski (1992) presented the pedigree of a family with a balanced autosomal translocation in 3 generations: a son of a carrier exhibited lymphocytes with a normal karyotype as well as lymphocytes with the balanced translocation.

		Eleven hundred and sixty-nine young women were prospectively examined for the presence of mitral-valve prolapse as manifested by midsystolic non-ejection click or late systolic murmur (or both).
		Echocardiography on all patients with clinical diagnosis of mitral-valve prolapse showed patterns of prolapse in 60 of 74 (81%).
		We conclude that mitral-valve prolapse is clinically present in approximately 6.3% of otherwise healthy young women.
