OMIA group 1189

Lymphangiectasia

The chain reaches the human disease aplasia cutis congenita-intestinal lymphangiectasia syndrome, which Mondo defines as: “Aplasia cutis congenita - intestinal lymphangiectasia is an extremely rare association syndrome, described in only two brothers to date (one of which died at 2 months of age), characterized by aplasia cutis congenita of the vertex and generalized edema (as well as hypoproteinemia and lymphopenia) due to intestinal lymphangiectasia. There have been no further descriptions in the literature since 1985.” It reaches 2 more human diseases, listed below.

The chain

From the animal disease to the drugs. The page shows what each step found and where the chain stopped. It does not say whether the animal is a model of a human disease.

  1. Animal disease

    Reached

    OMIA records it in 1 species entry marked as a defect.

  2. Human disease

    Reached

    3 Mondo diseases.

  3. Human gene

    Stopped here

    No gene of a species entry marked as a defect reaches a human gene through Ensembl's orthologs.

  4. Target evidence

    Not reached

    The chain stopped before this step.

  5. Drugs

    Not reached

    The chain stopped before this step.

The chain stopped at Human gene: No gene of a species entry marked as a defect reaches a human gene through Ensembl's orthologs.

Natural-model score

How complete and how well supported the chain to each human disease is, out of 100, by stated rules. It does not say that the animal is a validated model of the human disease. How the score works.

Species

The chain follows only the species entries that OMIA marks as a defect.

Species Scientific name OMIA entry A defect
horse Equus caballus OMIA:001189-9796 Yes

Genes

Each gene OMIA records for a species entry, and the human gene it reaches through Ensembl's orthologs.

Species Animal gene Human gene Ortholog
horse No gene OMIA records no gene for this species entry.

Human diseases

Two routes lead from an OMIA group to a Mondo human disease: OMIA's own Mondo link, and the group's OMIM numbers through Mondo's cross-references.

Mondo disease Name Found by
MONDO:0008808 aplasia cutis congenita-intestinal lymphangiectasia syndrome Aplasia cutis congenita - intestinal lymphangiectasia is an extremely rare association syndrome, described in only two brothers to date (one of which died at 2 months of age), characterized by aplasia cutis congenita of the vertex and generalized edema (as well as hypoproteinemia and lymphopenia) due to intestinal lymphangiectasia. There have been no further descriptions in the literature since 1985. OMIA's OMIM numbers
MONDO:0009333 mullerian derivatives-lymphangiectasia-polydactyly syndrome Mullerian derivatives-lymphangiectasia-polydactyly syndrome is characterized by prenatal linear growth deficiency, hypertrophied alveolar ridges, redundant nuchal skin, postaxial polydactyly and cryptorchidism. Mullerian duct remnants, lymphangiectasis, and renal anomalies are also present. Three cases have been described. A small penis was observed in two of these cases. The syndrome is likely to be an autosomal recessive or X-linked trait. All the reported patients died neonatally of hepatic failure. OMIA's OMIM numbers
MONDO:0007916 primary intestinal lymphangiectasia Primary intestinal lymphangiectasia (PIL) is a rare intestinal disease characterized by dilated intestinal lacteals which cause lymph leakage into the small bowel lumen. Clinical manifestations include edema related to hypoalbuminemia (protein-losing enteropathy), asthenia, diarrhea, lymphedema and failure to thrive in children. OMIA's OMIM numbers
