Associated abnormalities are facial dysmorphism, with a triangular face and low set ears, pulmonary stenosis and vertebral abnormalities and eye anomalies which include pigment clumping, chorioretinal atropy and posterior embryotoxon. Cytogenetic abnormalities are common. Butterfly vertebrae, or fused vertebrae are found on spinal radiographs. The liver echodensity may be increased at ultrasound examination but it is structurally normal. Radionuclide imaging shows slow bile excretion. The diagnosis is made by the demonstration of three of the five major manifestations: facial abnormalities, cholestasis, peripheral pulmonary artery stenosis or hypoplasia, posterior ocular embryotoxon and butterfly vertebrae.

Alagille syndrome today Daniel Alagille, MD Clin Invest Med Paper reprints may be obtained from: Dr. Daniel Alagille, 75 Denfert-Rochereau, 75014 Paris, France; fax 33 1 43 54-2590 Contents Abstract Introduction Clinical and laboratory findings Other manifestations ... References Abstract A genetic syndrome causing paucity of interlobular bile ducts (Alagille syndrome) is characterized by five main characteristics: typical, peculiar facies; chronic cholestasis; posterior embryotoxon; butterfly-like vertebral-arch defects; and cardiovascular malformations. In the complete form of the syndrome, all five features are observed. Four or less of these characteristics are present in the incomplete or partial forms of this syndrome. Other, less frequent characteristics (growth retardation, mental retardation, renal and bone abnormalities as well as a high-pitched voice) have also been observed. An autosomal dominant mode of genetic transmission with variable penetrance seems likely. Therapy consists of nutritional supplementation of medium-chain triglycerides, essential fatty acids and fat-soluble vitamins. Liver transplantation has been used successfully to treat patients with liver failure, portal hypertension or severe pruritus and xanthomatosis. Table of contents Introduction This syndrome, characterized by the association of five major groups of features, was gradually identified over 15 years. In 1965 Smith, Optiz and Inhorn1 described intrahepatic biliary dysgenesis associated with polycystic kidneys and cardiac anomalies. In 1969 I and my colleagues Habib and Thomasin[2] reported 25 cases of intrahepatic biliary hypoplasia and cardiac and vertebral malformations associated with a peculiar facies. The syndrome was better defined in 1975,[3] and the view that it is a specific entity was further strengthened by the description of posterior embryotoxon in 1979 by Riely and associates.[4]

ALAGILLE SYNDROME FISH ANALYSIS Open Page in New Window Print This Page Return to Search The Kleberg Cytogenetics Laboratory offers a fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)-based assay for identifying the microdeletion on the short arm of chromosome 20 associated with Alagille syndrome. Clinical Features: Alagille syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by intrahepatic cholestasis and abnormalities of the heart, eye, vertebrae and kidney, as well as a characteristic facial appearance. There is a high rate of new mutation (50-60% of cases) and considerable phenotypic variability. Reasons for Referral: Patients with clinical features suggestive of Alagille syndrome may be tested for microdeletions of 20p12 by FISH. Since there is considerable variability in this syndrome, testing of first-degree relatives of an affected individual (FISH positive) may be warranted. Prenatal diagnosis may be performed if an affected family member has been studied in our laboratory and shown to have a deletion detectable by FISH. Please call regarding all prenatal samples.

56. National Human Genome Research Institute - 1997 Release Alagille Syndrome News release issued by the National Human Genome Research Institute in July 1997 to announce discovery of a gene for alagille syndrome, an inherited disorder http://www.genome.gov/10000895

1997 Release Alagille Syndrome Gene Finding May Lead to Better Understanding of Birth Defects Human Disorder Found to be Due to Alteration in a Developmental Pathway Intensly Studied in Simpler Organisms July 1997 BETHESDA, Md .- Scientists at the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), reported recently that a newly discovered gene that causes a rare childhood disease marked by a wide range of birth defects may be an important key to other human developmental disorders. A mutation in the gene-known as JAG1-causes Alagille syndrome. NHGRI Director Dr. Francis Collins, visiting scientist Dr. Settara Chandrasekharappa, postdoctoral fellow Dr. Takaya Oda, and their colleagues report their finding in a recent issue of the journal Nature Genetics . The disease, also known as AGS, is characterized by abnormalities of the liver, heart, eye and vertebrae, as well as certain facial features. Working with researchers at Nagoya City University in Japan, the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, and Research Genetics Inc. of Huntsville, Alabama, Collins and Chandrasekharappa observed that JAG1, located on Chromosome 20, is mutated in individuals with AGS. JAG1 produces a molecule that resides on the cell surface interacts with the products of the so-called NOTCH family of genes, which also reside on cell surfaces. Based on extensive work done on similar genes in fruitflies and roundworms, scientists believe that signalling between these proteins is critical for the proper development of embryos. Individuals with AGS are born with one copy of JAG1 not functioning. Even though the remaining copy is normal, without the right dosage of JAG1 in their genetic makeup, AGS is the result.
