(Epi)genotype–phenotype correlations in Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome: a paradigm for genomic medicine
3 Jul 2015
Abstract excerpt
Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is the commonest overgrowth cancer predisposition disorder and represents a model for human imprinting dysregulation and tumorigenesis. BWS features can variably combine and present a widely variable range of severity in the phenotypic expression. This wide spectrum is paralleled at molecular level by complex (epi)genetic defects on chromosome 11p15.5 leading to disrupted...
