Health Center Dictionary Encyclopedia Innovation Spotlight ... Eye Care Library Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (BBS) What causes Bardet-Biedl syndrome? How is Bardet-Biedl treated? Bardet-Biedl syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that affects the brain and can cause multiple physical problems including a deterioration of the intellect and neurological functions. The syndrome sometimes affects eyesight with a condition called rod-cone dystrophy, a degeneration of light-sensitive cells in the periphery of the retina. This eye disorder causes night blindness, tunnel vision, decreased visual acuity, and photophobia (extreme sensitivity of the eyes to light). Other symptoms of Bardet-Biedl syndrome may include extra toes and/or fingers, mental retardation, kidney disease, and obesity. What causes Bardet-Biedl syndrome? Bardet-Biedl syndrome is characterized as recessively inherited. In other words, neither parent exhibits characteristics of the disorder, but both carry the recessive gene that causes the disorder. Parents who have one affected child run a 25 percent chance in each additional pregnancy of the condition occurring again. There is also a two in three chance that children of subsequent pregnancies, although not affected, will be carriers of the recessive gene. The syndrome is rare because the recessive gene is only carried by approximately 1 in 179 people. Therefore, a person carrying the gene is unlikely to conceive children with another person who also carries the gene. How is Bardet-Beidl treated?

De nature héréditaire ce syndrome comprend : Une obésité Un retard mental Une rétinite pigmentaire (inflammation de la rétine) Des problèmes génitaux Une polydactylie (présence de doigts surnuméraires) Des problèmes neurologiques (rarement) Des anomalies cardiaques (rarement) Des anomalies rénales (rarement) Il est transmis selon le type autosomique récessif : les 2 parents doivent être porteurs du gène (localisé sur un chromosome non sexuel) pour que l'enfant développe la maladie. Mise à jour octobre 2001 Des chercheurs ont montré que le syndrome de Bardet Biedl n'est pas causé par la mutation d'un seul gène (zone précise située sur un chromosome à l'origine des ordres pour la fabrication des protéines de la cellule) mais nécessite la mutation de deux gènes, de deux allèles d'un même gène et un autre gène. Un allèle est chacun des deux gènes d'une paire de chromosomes. Leur emplacement, que l'on appelle locus (au pluriel loci), est identique sur chacun de ces deux chromosomes et ils possèdent tous les deux la même fonction. Néanmoins, chaque allèle exerce cette fonction d'une manière différente. 3 gènes SBB ont été identifiés (SBB 2, SBB 6, est SBB 4) ainsi que trois autres loci SBB. Les conclusions d'un chercheur du nom de Katsanis et ses collaborateurs (Baylor College of medicine Houston) propose que le syndrome SBB pourrait ne pas être un trouble récessif causé par un gène unique mais nécessitant trois allèles.

pa@bcm.tmc.edu Researchers identify first gene responsible for Bardet-Biedl Syndrome HOUSTON(Sept. 1, 2000)The first gene linked to a complex disorder called Bardet-Biedl syndrome could provide clues to health problems in the general population, including obesity, kidney disease, blindness, and mental retardation. In the September issue of the scientific journal Nature Genetics , an international team of investigators, led by Baylor College of Medicine's Drs. Nicholas Katsanis, Richard A. Lewis and James R. Lupski, identify the first of at least six genes responsible for the syndrome. BBS is a rare medical condition initially characterized by extra fingers and toes, profound weight gain as early as 6 to 7 months of age, and vision problems by age 6 or 7. "Finding the genetic cause of BBS has been extremely challenging," said Katsanis, with the department of molecular and human genetics. "Although 5 BBS loci, or locations of a gene within the human genome, have been reported, we had been unable to identify a specific gene." After years of research, identification of the gene eluded researchers until the recent announcement of a gene responsible for McKursick-Kaufman Syndrome, another rare disorder that shares a number of similarities with BBS.
