Congenital dyserythropoietic anemias (CDA) are disorders characterized by ineffective erythropoiesis and morphological anomalies in erythrocytes and erythroblasts. The purpose of this study is to identify the gene variants in patients diagnosed with CDA. We analyzed five unrelated patients and two siblings with a targeted panel of genes to CDA: CDAN1, CDIN1, SEC23B, KIF23, KLF1, and GATA1 genes. We found three novel variants in the CDIN1 gene (p.Leu136Val, p.Tyr247Cys, and p.Ile273Thr), four known variants in the SEC23B gene (p.Arg14Trp, p.Arg554Ter, p.Asp239Gly, and p.Ser436Leu), and one novel variant in the KIF23 gene (p.Leu945Trpfs*31). The in silico analysis of novel variants predict that they are pathogenic and, the in vitro study confirms the functional impact of the KIF23 variant on the protein location.Keywords CDA types Ib .

Presentamos el caso de una paciente de 52 años, sin antecedentes personales o familiares de cáncer, con clínica de epigastralgia y sin mejoría, a pesar de dosis plenas con inhibidores de la bomba de protones. Por la persistencia de los síntomas, se decidió solicitar una nueva gastroscopia en la que se encontraron lesiones duodenales que describen como linfangiectasias; se tomaron biopsias y se enviaron a Anatomía Patológica, con diagnóstico de linfoma intestinal primario.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
