Disease ID | Source | Name | Description |
605822 | OMIM | Spondyloocular syndrome (SOS) | A syndrome characterized by cataract, loss of vision due to retinal detachment, facial dysmorphism, facial hypotonia, normal height with disproportional short trunk, osteoporosis, immobile spine with thoracic kyphosis and reduced lumbal lordosis. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
264800 | OMIM | Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) | A multisystem disorder characterized by accumulation of mineralized and fragmented elastic fibers in the skin, vascular walls, and Burch membrane in the eye. Clinically, patients exhibit characteristic lesions of the posterior segment of the eye including peau d'orange, angioid streaks, and choroidal neovascularizations, of the skin including soft, ivory colored papules in a reticular pattern that predominantly affect the neck and large flexor surfaces, and of the cardiovascular system with peripheral and coronary arterial occlusive disease as well as gastrointestinal bleedings. The gene represented in this entry acts as a disease modifier. PXE patients carrying causative ABCC6 mutations, manifest a more severe disease course characterized by earlier onset, frequent skin lesions and higher organ involvement, in the presence of XYLT2 variants. |
