Somatic Mutations in Vascular Malformations of Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia Result in Biallelic Loss of <i>ENG</i> or <i>ACVRL1</i>
2019-08-10
Abstract excerpt
Hereditary Hemorrhagic Telangiectasia (HHT) is a Mendelian disease characterized by vascular malformations including visceral arteriovenous malformations and mucosal telangiectasia. HHT is caused by loss-of-function mutations in one of 3 genes; ENG , ACVRL1 or SMAD4 and is inherited as an autosomal dominant condition. Intriguingly, the constitutional mutation causing HHT is present throughout the body, yet the...
