Title: Familial congenital diaphragmatic defect and associated midline anomalies: further evidence for an X-linked midline gene? Author: Carmi R, Meizner I, Katz M. Journal: Am J Med Genet; 1990 Jul; 36(3):313-5. PubMed ID: 2363430. Abstract: We report on familial occurrence of congenital diaphragmatic defect and associated midline anomalies, namely cleft palate and omphalocele in brothers. This family further supports the existence of an X-linked gene involved in the organization of the embryonal midline. This particular mutant gene might be active in the schisis-morphogenesis phenomena occurring at the midline.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
