Disease ID | Source | Name | Description |
616779 | OMIM | Cerebral arteriopathy, autosomal dominant, with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy, 2 (CADASIL2) | A cerebrovascular disease characterized by multiple subcortical infarcts, pseudobulbar palsy, dementia, and the presence of granular deposits in small cerebral arteries producing ischemic stroke. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
600142 | OMIM | Cerebral arteriopathy, autosomal recessive, with subcortical infarcts and leukoencephalopathy (CARASIL) | A cerebrovascular disease characterized by non-hypertensive arteriopathy of cerebral small vessels with subcortical infarcts, alopecia, and spondylosis. Small cerebral arteries show arteriosclerotic changes, fibrous intimal proliferation, and hyaline degeneration with splitting of the intima and/or the internal elastic membrane. Neurologic features include progressive dementia, gait disturbances, extrapyramidal and pyramidal signs, and demyelination of the cerebral white matter with sparing of U fibers. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
610149 | OMIM | Macular degeneration, age-related, 7 (ARMD7) | A form of age-related macular degeneration, a multifactorial eye disease and the most common cause of irreversible vision loss in the developed world. In most patients, the disease is manifest as ophthalmoscopically visible yellowish accumulations of protein and lipid that lie beneath the retinal pigment epithelium and within an elastin-containing structure known as Bruch membrane. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
