英文摘要
Turner syndrome is a human genetic disorder involving females who lack all
or part of one X chromosome. The principle features are short stature,
infertility, and anatomic abnormalities that include webbed neck,
congenital heart disease, and renal and skeletal malformations. Selected
neurocognitive deficits, including impaired visual-spatial abilities, are
also characteristic of Turner syndrome, but global developmental delay is
uncommon.
As a relatively common genetic disorder with well-defined manifestations,
Turner syndrome presents the opportunity to investigate genetic factors
that influence female physical and cognitive development There is
potentially informative genetic and phenotypic variation among Turner
syndrome subjects with partial X deletions (partial monosomy X). Careful
clinical and molecular characterization of these unusual subjects who
represent "experiments of nature" could link individual Turner syndrome
phenotypic features to specific X chromosome regions. Similar studies are
in progress for Down syndrome and other chromosome disorders. Turner
syndrome is an excellent model for such phenotype mapping studies because
of its prevalence, the well-characterized phenotype, and the wealth of
molecular resources available for the X chromosome. The disorder is also
a model for studying genetic aspects of cognition because of the selective
nature of neurocognitive deficits and the relative sparing of verbal
abilities.
This study will examine approximately 80 partial monosomy X subjects. Each
subject will have a thorough clinical evaluation and extensive
neurocognitive testing to determine the presence or absence of specific
Turner syndrome phenotypic features. Cell lines will be established and
used for molecular studies to precisely define the subjects' X deletions.
The goal of this study is to define critical regions of the X chromosome
for neurocognitive deficits and physical features associated with Turner
syndrome. Phenotype mapping of X deletions will be helpful for genetic
counseling and for predicting which girls with Turner syndrome are at high
risk for learning difficulties; these children and their parents might
benefit from extra social, psychological, and educational support. The
collection of cell lines will also provide a valuable resource for future
studies aimed at identifying specific Turner syndrome genes.
Characterization of these genes would provide insight into the
pathophysiology of Turner syndrome as well as processes of normal physical
and cognitive development.
