		Angelman Syndrome ^Votes:0 Angelman Syndrome Angelman Syndrome is not considered a subtype of autism, but individuals suffering from this disorder exhibit many behaviors characteristic of autism. They are also sometimes given a secondary diagnosis of autism. In 1965, Harry Angelman, M.D., an English physician, was the first to describe a group of individuals with similar behavioral and physical similarities, which was later termed 'Angelman Syndrome.' For many of these individuals, a small portion of chromosome 15 is missing; and this appears to be from the maternal side. Interestingly, when a small portion of chromosome 15 is missing and is from the paternal side, the child may suffer from Prader-Willi Syndrome. Similar to autism, individuals with Angelman Syndrome display the following behaviors: hand-flapping, li Read More Go to Site

		angelmansyndrome.org ^Votes:0 Angelman Syndrome (AS) is a rare neuro-genetic disorder named after an English pediatrician, Dr. Harry Angelman, who first described the syndrome in 1965. A syndrome is number of features which occur together as a group and indicate a particular condition. Angelman Syndrome is characterized by severe intellectual disability, speech impediment, sleep disturbance, unstable jerky gait, seizures and usually a happy demeanor. A diagnosis of Angelman Syndrome is based on a combination of the clinical features, together with genetic diagnostic tests. Read More Go to Site

		Prader-Willi ^Votes:0 THE GENES INVOLVED IN PRADER-WILLI AND ANGELMAN SYNDROMES In 1981, the Prader-Willi syndrome was found to be associated with a very small deletion in the long arm of human chromosome 15, between bands q11 and q13 (Ledbetter et al., 1981). However, in 1987, an identical deletion was reported in a number of patients who suffered from a very different disease, Angelman syndrome. These syndromes give quite distinct phenotypes (Figure 1). Prader-Willi syndrome is characterized by developmental delay, cryptorchidism (small or undescended testes), hyperphagia obesity (fatness due to overeating in an attempt to reach satiety), short stature, and mild retardation. Angelman syndrome is characterized by seizures, severe mental retardation, inappropriate laughter, and a characteristic face that is sma Read More Go to Site

Slightly >70% of cases are due to a 15q11-q13 deletion in the paternally contributed chromosome. These deletions are optimally detected by FISH utilizing SNRPN (small nuclear ribonucleoprotein N) and alpha-satellite DNA probes. Approximately 28% of cases of PWS are due to maternal uniparental disomy (UPD). This abnormality can best be docum Read More Go to Site

		Special Child: Disorder Zone Archives - Angelman Syndrome ^Votes:0 Disorder Zone Archives Angelman Syndrome Jaime Lariccia Michael Whyte Introduction Angelman syndrome (AS) is a rare neuro-genetic disorder that is predominantly caused by deletions on chromosome 15 given by the mother (70-75% of cases). Other classes of AS that also lead to the typical clinical features of the syndrome are: 1) unusual chromosome rearrangements (2%), 2) inheritance of two paternal 15's and no maternal 15 present (4%), 3) mutation in the Imprinting center or UBE3A gene (3-5%), and 4) unknown causes (15%). Currently, it is estimated that the incidence of AS is somewhere between 1 in 15,000 to 1 in 30,000, and the greatest majority of cases are of Caucasian origin. Males and females are affected equally. The discovery of Angelman syndrome, which was first described in 1965, wa Read More Go to Site
