Variable clinical expression of a Belgian TGFB3 founder variant suggests the presence of a genetic modifier
Background:TGFB3 variants cause Loeys–Dietz syndrome type 5, a syndromic form of thoracic aortic aneurysm and dissection. The exact disease phenotype is hard to delineate because of few identified cases and highly variable clinical representation.Methodology: We provide the results of a haplotype analysis and a medical record review of clinical features of 27 individuals from 5 different families, originating from the Campine region in Flanders, carrying the NM_003239.5(TGFB3):c.787G>C p.(Asp263His) likely pathogenic variant, dbSNP:rs796051886, ClinVar:203492. The Asp263 residue is essentia... Mehr ...
