OMIA group 629

Megacolon

The chain reaches the human disease ABCD syndrome, which Mondo defines as: “An autosomal recessive disease that is characterized by albinism, black lock, cell migration disorder of the neurocytes of the gut and sensorineural deafness and has material basis in a mutation in the endothelin B receptor gene (EDNRB).” 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 5 species entries marked as a defect.

  2. Human disease

    Reached

    3 Mondo diseases.

  3. Human gene

    Reached

    1 human gene.

  4. Target evidence

    Reached

    2 Open Targets associations, with a best score of 0.78.

  5. Drugs

    Reached

    9 ChEMBL drugs, 5 approved. None has been tested for this disease.

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.

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:0010895 ABCD syndrome An autosomal recessive disease that is characterized by albinism, black lock, cell migration disorder of the neurocytes of the gut and sensorineural deafness and has material basis in a mutation in the endothelin B receptor gene (EDNRB). OMIA's OMIM numbers
MONDO:0010833 Hirschsprung disease, susceptibility to, 2 An inherited susceptibility or predisposition to developing Hirschsprung disease Hirschsprung disease in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the EDNRB gene. OMIA's OMIM numbers
MONDO:0010192 Waardenburg syndrome type 4A A subtype of Waardenburg syndrome type 4 (Waardenburg-Shah syndrome) caused by mutations in EDNRB. 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.
