  • Title: Autosomal recessive multiple epiphyseal dysplasia in a Korean girl caused by novel compound heterozygous mutations in the DTDST (SLC26A2) gene.
    Author: Cho TJ, Kim OH, Lee HR, Shin SJ, Yoo WJ, Park WY, Park SS, Cho SI, Choi IH.
    Journal: J Korean Med Sci; 2010 Jul; 25(7):1105-8. PubMed ID: 20592910.
    Abstract:
    Multiple epiphyseal dysplasia is caused by heterogeneous genotypes involving more than six genes. Recessive mutations in the DTDST gene cause a phenotype of recessive multiple epiphyseal dysplasia (rMED). The authors report a 9-yr old Korean girl with the rMED phenotype having novel compound heterozygous mutations in the DTDST gene, which were inherited from both parents. This is the first Korean rMED case attributed to DTDST mutations, and expands the spectrum of diseases caused by DTDST mutations.
