Lecture 35 How do mutations affect health and tooth development Flashcards
What are environmental diseases?
- influenza
- measles
- infections
What are in the middle of the disease continuum?
- diabetes
- CV diseases
- Osteoporosis
What would be 2 genetic diseases?
- cystic fibrosis
- hemophilia A
Mutation data base total number
- 120,000 (large numbers)
What are the broadest classes of protein functions resulting form gene mutations?
- loss-of-function mutation
- gain of function mutation
What is a loss of function mutation?
- absence results in dysfunction
- mutations results in less or no function of certain proteins
- many autosomal recessive cases in enzyme deficiency
Haploinsufficiency
- reduced gene dosage is not sufficient to permit the cell to function properly
- Marfan syndrome with fibrillin mutation
- only half of alleles working (50 % of protein being made)
Dominant negative mutations
- a mutation whose product adversely affects the normal product
- osteogensis imperfect
- disrupts good proteins function
Gain of function mutation
- increased function results in dysfunction
- mutations in certain genes gain a new and abnormal function of protein
- dense skeleton
What is the most common type of disease?
- craniofacial genetic disorders
What indicated consanguineous mating?
- double bar
related individuals
High bone mass kindred
- autosomal dominant trait
- (male to female)
- (female to male)
- each level effected
What would be an appropriate name for bone diseases?
- cranio tubular hyperostosis
What are present in consanguineous marriages?
- autosomal recessive diseases
Why are autosomal recessive diseases frequently found in the mediterranean?
- because they allow first cousin marriages
Why do genetic diseases relate to teeth?
- the developmental signaling pathways that drive tooth development are critical in the development of many other organs
- tooth development should perhaps be thought of as a potential risk factor for other diseases that manifest later in life.
What are the malocclusion syndromes?
- pierre robin
- treacher collins
- marfan syndrome
What are the craniofacial malformations?
- crouson
- apert
- pfeiffer
- clefting syndromes (lip and palate)
What are the bone mass traits?
- sclerosteosis and van buschem’s
- high bone mass and OPPG
- Paget’s Disease
- tooth agenesis
- tooth movement
= tooth development disorders
Schlerosteos and van buschems
- mutations in sosh gene
High bone mass and OPPG
- LRP5
Tooth agenisis
- patient missing teeth
Pagents disease
- increases bone mass
Ectodermal dysplasia symptoms
- abmoral nails, teeth, absent or think hair, absent tears, decreased skin color etc
Supernumarry teeth
- tooth impaction is fairly common but umtiple impacted teeth is rare
What is a syndromic disease?
- when another disease effects the tooth development
Syndromic associated diseases:
- Cleidocranal dysplasia
- Gardners syndrome
- Trichorhino phalangic syndrome
- Cleft lip and palate
Non-syndromic
- no comorbities
