OMIA group 785

Hyperkalemic Periodic Paralysis, HYPP

The chain reaches the human disease congenital myasthenic syndrome 16, which Mondo defines as: “Any congenital myasthenic syndrome in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the SCN4A gene.” It reaches 4 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

    5 Mondo diseases.

  3. Human gene

    Reached

    1 human gene.

  4. Target evidence

    Reached

    5 Open Targets associations, with a best score of 0.84.

  5. Drugs

    Reached

    55 ChEMBL drugs, 47 approved. At least one 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.

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:000785-9796 Yes

Genes

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

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:0013620 congenital myasthenic syndrome 16 Any congenital myasthenic syndrome in which the cause of the disease is a mutation in the SCN4A gene. OMIA's OMIM numbers
MONDO:0008224 hyperkalemic periodic paralysis Hyperkalemic periodic paralysis (HyperPP) is a muscle disorder characterized by episodic attacks of muscle weakness associated with an increase in serum potassium concentration. OMIA's OMIM numbers
MONDO:0013234 hypokalemic periodic paralysis, type 2 OMIA's OMIM numbers
MONDO:0008195 paramyotonia congenita of Von Eulenburg Paramyotonia congenita of Von Eulenburg is characterized by exercise- or cold-induced myotonia and muscle weakness. Prevalence is unknown. The syndrome is nonprogressive and is transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait. It is caused by mutations in the gene encoding the alpha subunit of the type IV voltage-gated sodium channel (SCN4A; 17q23.3). OMIA's OMIM numbers
MONDO:0018959 potassium-aggravated myotonia Potassium-aggravated myotonia (PAM) is a muscular channelopathy presenting with a pure myotonia dramatically aggravated by potassium ingestion, with variable cold sensitivity and no episodic weakness. This group includes three forms: myotonia fluctuans, myotonia permanens, and acetazolamide-responsive myotonia. OMIA's OMIM numbers
