Molecular genetic features and clinical manifestations in Chinese familial cerebral cavernous malformation: from a novel KRIT1/CCM1 mutation (c.1119dupT) to an overall view
Abstract:Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are common vascular anomaly diseases in the central nervous system associated with seizures, cerebral microbleeds, or asymptomatic mostly. CCMs can be classified as sporadic or familial, with familial cerebral cavernous malformations (fCCMs) being the autosomal dominant manner with incomplete penetrance. Germline mutations of KRIT1, CCM2, and PDCD10 are associated with the pathogenesis of fCCMs. Till now, little is known about the fCCMs mutation spectrum in the Han Chine… Show more
