Camurati-Engelmann disease (CED; MIM 131300), or progressive diaphyseal dysplasia, is a rare, sclerosing bone dysplasia inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Recently, the gene causing CED has been assigned to the chromosomal region 19q13 (refs 1-3). Because this region contains the gene encoding transforming growth factor-beta 1 (TGFB1), an important mediator of bone remodelling, we evaluated TGFB1 as a candidate gene for causing CED.
卡穆拉蒂-恩格尔曼病(CED;MIM 131300),即进行性骨干发育异常,是一种罕见的以常染色体显性方式遗传的硬化性骨发育异常疾病。最近,导致CED的基因已被定位到染色体区域19q13(参考文献1 - 3)。由于该区域包含编码转化生长因子β1(TGFB1)的基因,而TGFB1是骨重塑的重要调节因子,因此我们将TGFB1作为导致CED的候选基因进行了评估。
