Schmid metaphyseal chondrodysplasia (SMCD) is a relatively common, heritable osteochondrodysplasia characterized by short-limbed short stature with normal facies, and generalized metaphyseal dysplasias of the long and short tubular bones. Several mutations of the type X collagen gene (COL10A1) have
The Arg 519 -Cys mutation in type II collagen results in severe, precocious familial osteoarthritis (OA) in 100% of carriers within the first 3 decades of life. The carrier population provided a well-defined patient population for the study of serum markers of familial OA with respect to pathogenesi
We used the single strand conformation polymorphism (SSCP) method to investigate 13 apparently unrelated Spanish patients with familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) for mutations in the promoter region and the 18 exons and their flanking intron sequences of the low density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor ge
