Abstract excerpt
Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT) is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by multisystemic vascular dysplasia and recurrent hemorrhage from the sites of vascular lesions. Two genes have been identified for HHT. Endoglin, a TGF-beta binding protein which maps to chromosome 9q3, i...
