Endothelin-3 Gene Mutations in Isolated and Syndromic Hirschsprung Disease
1997-01-01
Abstract excerpt
Hirschsprung disease (HSCR, aganglionic megacolon) is a frequent congenital malformation regarded as a multigenic neurocristopathy. Four susceptibility genes have recently been identified in HSCR, namely the RET proto-oncogene, the glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), the endothelin B receptor (EDNRB) and the endothelin-3 genes (EDN3). Homozygosity for EDN3 mutations has been previously shown to cau...
