The changing pattern of consanguinity in a selected region of the Israeli Arab community
Authors: Sharkia Rajach , Zaid Muhamad , Athamna Abed , Cohen Dani , Azem Abdussalam , Zalan Abdelnaser
Published: October 2007

The prevalence of consanguinity within the Israeli Arab community is relatively high, and is associated with high rates of inherited disorders that lead to a high frequency of morbidity and mortality. Data on consanguinity between couples were recorded during two periods (1980–1985 and 2000–2004) in relation to socioeconomic status of 4 selected villages. Two of the villages (A and B) are known to have high socioeconomic status, and the other two (C and D) are known to have low socioeconomic status. The average incidence of consanguineous marriages has slightly decreased from 33.1% in the first period to 25.9% in the second period (P = 0.0218) in all of the 4 villages. Marriages between first cousins showed a more significant decrease, from 23.9% in the first period to 13.6% in the second period (P < 0.0001). The average consanguinity rates of villages A and B were found to decrease from 22.3 to 16.2% respectively (P < 0.001) between the two observation periods, whereas those of villages C and D were found to decrease from 42.3 to 37.2%, (P < 0.001) during the same two periods. Thus, there has been a change in the pattern of consanguinity within the selected Israeli Arab villages, between the two study periods. This change seems to correlate with the sociodemographic status of the villages. Therefore, improving the socioeconomic status of the villages, as well as implementation of proper health education programs, is expected to have a positive effect in reducing consanguinity. Am. J.

Multifocal rapidly involuting congenital hemangioma: A link to chorangioma
Authors: Mulliken J.B. , Bischoff J. , Kozakewich H.P.W.
Published: October 2007

Common infantile hemangioma is intriguing because of its variable presentation, rapid postnatal growth and slow regression in childhood. Interest in this tumor has increased with the recognition that it can be associated with structural anomalies in the craniofacial and ventral‐caudal regions. The phenotype has expanded by characterization of rare vascular tumors that arise in the fetus and manifest at birth as rapidly involuting congenital hemangioma (RICH) or non‐involuting congenital hemangioma (NICH). We describe a boy born with three RICH on the abdominal wall; one extended into the base of the umbilical cord. Two weeks later a small, infantile hemangioma arose on his neck. This patient stimulated a review of what is known about placental vascular tumors and their possible relationship to fetal and infantile hemangiomas. We suggest that chorangioma and umbilical cord hemangioma are clinically and histopathologically similar to cutaneous and hepatic RICH. These placental vascular tumors can also occur in conjunction with solitary and multiple infantile hemangiomas. © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Phakomatosis pigmentovascularis: Implications for severity with special reference to Mongolian spots associated with Sturge–Weber and Klippel–Trenaunay syndromes
Authors: Hall Bryan D. , Cadle Ronald G. , Morrill‐Cornelius Shannon M. , Bay Carolyn A.
Published: October 2007

In 1947 the term phakomatosis pigmentovascularis (PPV) was coined to represent the association of widespread, aberrant, and persistent nevus flammeus and pigmentary abnormalities. Four types of PPV have been recognized with type II (nevus flammeus and Mongolian spots) being the most common. Most early cases were of Asian or African descent. Many cases were subsequently associated with Sturge–Weber (S‐W) and Klippel–Trenaunay (K‐T) syndromes. Almost no literature reports have appeared in the genetic or dysmorphology literature! We present six cases of PPV in which five were either African, Asian or Hispanic, and five of six had an admixture of K‐T and S‐W. Four had macrocephaly, and one had microcephaly. Four had CNS abnormalities (three with hydrocephalus, one with Arnold–Chiari and one with polymicrogyria), three had mental retardation, and one had seizures. One each had thumb hypoplasia, hydronephrosis, glaucoma, coronal synostosis, and 3–4 finger syndactyly. It is our suspicion and hypothesis that in the presence of persistent, extensive and aberrant Mongolian spots, vascular abnormalities as are seen in K‐T and S‐W carry a worse prognosis. This may be particularly true either of children of Asian, Hispanic or African heritage or any individuals from darker pigmented skin groups. © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Congenital malformations co‐occurring with hypospadias in California, 1983–1997
Authors: Yang Wei , Carmichael Suzan L. , Shaw Gary M.
Published: October 2007

Investigations for co‐occurring malformations can serve as a first step to discover new risk factors and provide insights into malformation etiologies. Our objective was to explore the risks of occurrence of structural congenital malformation phenotypes in 5,481 infants with hypospadias, using data from a population‐based active surveillance system. Ascertainment was performed among 1,816,258 liveborn and 12,203 stillborn male offspring of women who were residents of registry counties during 1983–1997. Malformations other than hypospadias were grouped according to the 3‐ and 4‐digit BPA malformation codes. Prevalences of each malformation grouping were calculated among all births with hypospadias and their three subgroups and all births without hypospadias but with another structural malformation. Relative risks were estimated based on the ratio of two prevalences, and the corresponding 95% confidence intervals were computed using Poisson regression models. Observed relative risks indicated that all malformation groupings were less likely to co‐occur with hypospadias and their three subgroups than with other types of malformations, with relative risks ranging from 0.04 to 0.93. For most malformations, risks were relatively similar among all births with hypospadias and the three subgroups of hypospadias. The observed relative risks were not substantially changed in analyses that adjusted for maternal age, race/ethnicity, and parity. Computations were extended to 4‐digit level BPA codes. Almost all observed relative risks for malformations co‐occurring with hypospadias overall and three subgroups were less than 1. © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
A case of autism with an interstitial 1q deletion (1q23.3‐24.2) and a de novo translocation of chromosomes 1q and 5q

Published: October 2007

Chromosomal abnormalities may cause autism by disrupting a gene or by providing a permissive genetic environment for mutations elsewhere in the genome to become expressed as autism. We report here on a patient with an apparently balanced de novo translocation of chromosomes 1q and 5q. He presented with minor dysmorphic features and renal malformations, mental retardation, and autism. Further characterization of the chromosomal rearrangement by FISH revealed a deletion in chromosome 1 from q23.3 to q24.2 corresponding to a region of rising interest in the research of autism susceptibility genes. The array‐CGH technique gave better resolution of the breakpoints and the size of the deletion was calculated to be 4.97 Mb. © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Suggestive linkage to a neighboring region of IRF6 in a cleft lip and palate multiplex family
Authors: Jakobsen Linda P. , Ullmann Reinhard , Kjaer Klaus W. , Knudsen Mary A. , Tommerup Niels , Eiberg Hans
Published: October 2007

Cleft lip and/or palate (CL/P) is a common congenital malformation with a complex etiology, as many genes and environmental factors have been shown to play a role in craniofacial development. We used a genetic mapping approach to analyze a family with multiplex CL/P. A genome‐wide scan with a 10 kb single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) chip followed by fine mapping with microsatellite markers in a CL/P multiplex family suggested linkage (maximum multipoint LOD score of 2.41) to a 6.5 Mb interval at 1q32.1‐q32.2. This interval was close to, but excluded IRF6. Mutations in the IRF6 (1q32.2) cause syndromic forms of CL/P, and several association studies have shown that polymorphisms in and around IRF6 are associated with non‐syndromic CL/P (NSCLP). However, in the family described here, IRF6 was excluded from the linkage interval. Sequencing of selected genes in the interval and comparative genome hybridization (CGH) did not reveal any mutations or genomic aberrations. Our data suggest that an unidentified CL/P gene, or a non‐coding IRF6 regulatory element in this linkage interval may have caused CL/P in this family. © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Complex balanced translocation t(1;5;7)(p32.1;q14.3;p21.3) and two microdeletions del(1)(p31.1p31.1) and del(7)(p14.1p14.1) in a patient with features of Greig cephalopolysyndactyly and mental retardation

Published: October 2007

Complex chromosome rearrangements (CCRs) are rare structural abnormalities that involve at least two chromosomes and more than two breakpoints and are often associated with developmental delay, mental retardation, and congenital anomalies. We report on a de novo, apparently balanced translocation t(1;5;7)(p32.1;q14.3;p21.3) involving three chromosomes in a 7‐year‐old boy with severe psychomotor retardation, neonatal muscular hypertonia, congenital heart defect, polysyndactyly of hands and feet, and dysmorphic features resembling Greig cephalopolysyndactyly syndrome. Analysis of the chromosome breakpoints using fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with locus‐specific BAC clones and long‐range PCR products did not identify chromosome imbalance at any of the interrogated regions. High‐resolution comparative genomic hybridization (HR‐CGH) and array CGH (aCGH) revealed two additional cryptic de novo deletions, del(1)(p31.1p31.1) and del(7)(p14.1p14.1), respectively, that are not associated with the translocation breakpoints. FISH and polymorphic marker analyses showed that the deletion on derivative chromosome 1 is between 4.2 and 6.1 Mb, and the deletion on derivative chromosome 7 is approximately 5.1 Mb, and that both are paternal in origin. The deletion on chromosome 7p encompasses theGLI3gene that is causative for the Greig cephalopolysyndactyly, Pallister–Hall and some cases of Acrocallosal syndromes. We discuss the potential mechanisms of formation of the described CCR. © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Cartilage hair hypoplasia mutations that lead to RMRP promoter inefficiency or RNA transcript instability

Published: October 2007

Cartilage hair hypoplasia (CHH; MIM 250250) is an autosomal recessive disease with diverse clinical manifestations. It is caused by mutations in RMRP gene, the RNA component of the ribonucleoprotein complex RNase MRP. Mutations in RMRP have been found in patients in the core promoter region or in the transcribed region, but the pathogenetic effect of the mutations is unclear. Real‐time PCR assays confirmed that both promoter (c.−16_−1 dup and c.−15_+2 dup) and transcribed mutations (c.168G > A and c.218A > G) lower the expression level of RMRP. Experiments with 5′RACE, showed that the reduced transcription in the promoter mutants was accompanied by shifting of the transcription initiation sites to nucleotides 5′‐upstream of the authentic site. Low levels of RMRP expression levels with transcript mutations were also seen when constructs encoding the wild‐type and mutant genes were transfected into cultured cells. The reduced transcription was correlated with greater instability of mutant RMRP transcripts compared to controls. A comparable reduction was seen when a mouse gene containing the c.70A > G mutation (the major mutation in humans with CHH) was introduced into ES cells in place of one of the wild‐type alleles. The low expression level of the c.70A > G Rmrp RNA was confirmed by expression assays into cultured cells, and was again correlated with RNA instability. Our results indicate that a loss of mutant RNA transcripts is a critical feature of pathogenesis. © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Molar enamel thickness and dentine horn height in Gigantopithecus blacki

Published: October 2007

Absolutely thick molar enamel is consistent with large body size estimates and dietary inferences about Gigantopithecus blacki, which focus on tough or fibrous vegetation. In this study, 10 G. blacki molars demonstrating various stages of attrition were imaged using high‐resolution microtomography. Three‐dimensional average enamel thickness and relative enamel thickness measurements were recorded on the least worn molars within the sample (n = 2). Seven molars were also virtually sectioned through the mesial cusps and two‐dimensional enamel thickness and dentine horn height measurements were recorded. Gigantopithecus has the thickest enamel of any fossil or extant primate in terms of absolute thickness. Relative (size‐scaled) measures of enamel thickness, however, support a thick characterization (i.e., not “hyper‐thick”); G. blacki relative enamel thickness overlaps slightly with Pongo and completely with Homo. Gigantopithecus blacki dentine horns are relatively short, similar to (but shorter than) those of Pongo, which in turn are shorter than those of humans and African apes. Gigantopithecus blacki molar enamel (and to a lesser extent, that of Pongo pygmaeus) is distributed relatively evenly across the occlusal surface compared with the more complex distribution of enamel thickness in Homo sapiens. The combination of evenly distributed occlusal enamel and relatively short dentine horns in G. blacki results in a flat and low‐cusped occlusal surface suitable to grinding tough or fibrous food objects. This suite of molar morphologies is also found to varying degrees in Pongo and Sivapithecus, but not in African apes and humans, and may be diagnostic of subfamily Ponginae.

Studies on the steady and dynamic rheological properties of poly(dimethyl‐siloxane) filled with calcium carbonate based on superposition of its relative functions
Authors: Xu Xiaoming , Tao Xiaole , Gao Chuanhua , Zheng Qiang
Published: October 2007

The steady and dynamic rheological properties of hydroxyl‐terminated polydimethylsiloxane filled with calcium carbonate were investigated by varying the filler volume fraction (Φ) from 0 to 18.2 vol %. The results reveal that there exists a “percolation threshold” (Φc = 3.6%) for the suspensions, below which both the “Cox‐Merz” and modified “Cox‐Merz” rule are competent over the whole shear regions. However, these two rules breakdown and a characteristic plateau appears in low frequency regions for suspensions with Φ > Φc. The reasons for this can be ascribed to the contributions of nonhydrodynamic forces and formation of percolated filler network structure with increasing Φ. Moreover, using a concentration‐dependent parameter, B(Φ), superposition curves of dynamic complex modulus (|G*|) and shear stress (τ) for all suspensions were obtained through shifting |G*| curves along the ordinate and τ functions along the abscissa using different B(Φ) as shifting factor. Unfortunately, the reasonable superposition range is restricted in the high ω or

Synthesis and Properties of TRANSDIP, a Rigid Chelator Built upon a Cyclodextrin Cavity: Is TRANSDIP an Authentic trans‐Spanning Ligand?
Authors: Poorters Laurent , Armspach Dominique , Matt Dominique , Toupet Loïc , Choua Sylvie , Turek Philippe
Published: October 2007

The C2‐symmetrical diphosphane TRANSDIP was obtained in high yield by treating 6A,6B,6D,6E‐tetramesylated, permethylated α‐cyclodextrin with PPhLi2 in excess. The double cascade cyclisation thus produced is regioselective as phosphinidene capping involves only adjacent glucose units. It is also stereospecific, as both lone pairs on the phosphorus atoms are orientated towards the cyclodextrin axis. The restricted flexibility of the phosphorus atoms, which are part of nine‐membered heterocyclic rings, is responsible for JP,C spin–spin couplings with the eight‐bond distant CH2OMe carbon atoms of glucose units C and F. The treatment of TRANSDIP with Group 10 metal dihalides quantitatively gave square‐planar chelate complexes, in which a MX bond points towards the centre of the cavitand. The favourable P⋅⋅⋅P separation and the directional control of the lone pairs on the phosphorus atoms rule out the possibility of forming binuclear complexes or higher oligomers. Further, in all the complexes, the phosphorus atoms are in a trans arrangement. TRANSDIP may therefore be regarded as an authentic trans‐spanning diphosphane. In the complex [NiBr2⋅TRANSDIP], the cavity provides effective protection of the encapsulated MX bond towards nucleophilic attack by MeLi. The same complex, upon activation with methylaluminoxane, efficiently dimerises ethene and propene.
Modeling the Photochemistry of the Reference Phototoxic Drug Lomefloxacin by Steady‐State and Time‐Resolved Experiments, and DFT and Post‐HF Calculations

Published: October 2007

The irradiation in water of 1‐ethyl‐6,8‐difluoro‐7(3‐methylpiperazino)3‐quinolone‐2‐carboxylic acid (lomefloxacin), a bactericidal agent whose use is limited by its serious phototoxicity (and photomutagenicity in the mouse), leads to formation of the aryl cation in position eight that inserts into the 1‐ethyl chain. Trapping of the cation was examined and it was found that chloride and bromide straightforwardly add in position eight, but with iodide and with pyrrole the 1‐(2‐iodoethyl) and the 1‐[2‐(2‐pyrrolyl)ethyl] derivatives are formed. Flash photolysis reveals the triplet of lomefloxacin, a short‐lived species (λmax=370 nm, τ=40 ns) that generates the triplet cation (λmax=480 nm, τ≈120 ns). The last intermediate is quenched both by halides and by pyrrole. DFT and post‐HF methods have shown that the triplet is the lowest state of the cation (ΔGST=13.3 kcal mol−1) and intersystem crossing (ISC) to the singlet has no role because a less endothermic process occurs, that is, intramolecular hydrogen abstraction from the N‐ethyl chain (9.2 kcal mol−1) that finally leads to cyclization. The halides form weak complexes with the triplet cation (kq from 4.9×108 for Cl− to 7.0×109 m−1 s−1 for I−). With Cl− and Br− ISC occurs in the complex along with C8X bond formation. However, this latter process is slow with bulky iodide and with neutral pyrrole, and in these cases moderately endothermic electron transfer (ca. 7 kcal mol−1) yielding the 8‐quinolinyl radical occurs. Hydrogen exchange leads to a new radical on the 1‐ethyl chain and to the observed products. These findings suggest that the mutagenic activity of the DNA‐intercalated drug involves attack of the photogenerated cation to the heterocyclic bases.
