Skeletal atavism

The chain reaches the human disease Langer mesomelic dysplasia, which Mondo defines as: “Langer mesomelic dysplasia (LMD) is characterized by severe disproportionate short stature with mesomelic and rhizomelic shortening of the upper and lower limbs.” 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:002013-9796 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 SHOX short stature homeobox NCBI Gene 100146841 Ensembl does not know this NCBI Gene identifier.

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:0009588 Langer mesomelic dysplasia Langer mesomelic dysplasia (LMD) is characterized by severe disproportionate short stature with mesomelic and rhizomelic shortening of the upper and lower limbs. OMIA's OMIM numbers
MONDO:0007481 Leri-Weill dyschondrosteosis Leri-Weill dyschondrosteosis (LWD) is a skeletal dysplasia marked by disproportionate short stature and the characteristic Madelung wrist deformity. OMIA's OMIM numbers
MONDO:0010367 SHOX-related short stature SHOX-related short stature is a primary bone dysplasia characterized by a height that is 2 standard deviations below the corresponding mean height for a given age, sex and population group, in the absence of obvious skeletal abnormalities and other diseases and with normal developmental milestones. Patients present normal bone age with normal limbs, shortening of the extremities (significantly lower extremities-trunk and sitting height-to-height ratios), normal hGH values, normal karyotype, and Leri-Weill dyschondrosteosis-like radiological signs (e.g. triangularization of distal radial epiphyses, pyramidalization of distal carpal row, and lucency of the distal radius on the ulnar side). Mesomelic disproportions and Madelung deformity are not apparent at a young age, but may develop later in life or never. OMIA's OMIM numbers

Target evidence

Each Open Targets association between one of the group's human genes and one of its human diseases, with its overall score and the score for each kind of evidence.

The chain did not reach target evidence.
