Alstrom syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder characterised by obesity, sensorineural deafness, cone-rod dystrophy and hypergonadotrophic hypogonadism. Diabetes in these patients is characterised by severe insulin resistance. We describe the management of diabetes in a 28 year old male patient with Alstrom syndrome and severe insulin resistance. Obesity developed early in childhood and at 3 years weight was 22.2 kg. Genetic studies revealed that the patient is a compound heterozygote, with a frameshift mutation and translocation break point in the paternal and maternal alleles, respectively of the ALMS1 gene. Diabetes was diagnosed at age 14. Islet cell antibodies were negative. Peripheral insulin resistance was assessed by the hyperinsulinaemic isoglycaemic clamp technique.Insulin sensitivity, expressed as the glucose infusion rate [M value] was 48mg/m /min.Mean M values for a similar group of moderately obese subjects was 80 mg/m

Homozygosity Mapping At Alstrom Syndrome To Chromosome 2p. Homozygosity mapping at alstrom syndrome to chromosome 2p. Collin GB, Marshall JD, Cardon LR and Nishina PM Hum Mol Genet (1997) 6 http://bioinformatics.well.ox.ac.uk/~lon/Pubs/0009063741.html
Extractions: Collin GB, Marshall JD, Cardon LR and Nishina PM Hum Mol Genet Alstrom syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by pigmentary retinal degeneration, sensorineural hearing loss, childhood obesity, non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia and chronic nephropathy. Features occasionally observed include acanthosis nigricans, hypogonadism, hypothyroidism, alopecia, short stature and cardiomyopathy. We report here the results of a linkage study in a large French Acadian kindred, as a first step in identifying the molecular basis of Alstrom syndrome. Evidence of a founder effect made if feasible to use a homozygosity mapping strategy to identify the chromosomal location of the Alstrom gene. In a genome-wide screen, haplotype sharing for a region on chromosome 2 was observed in all affected individuals. Two point linkage analysis resulted in a maximum lod score of 3.84 (theta = 0.00) for marker D2S292. By testing additional markers, the disease gene was localized to a 14.9 cM region on chromosome 2p. University of Oxford Wellcome Trust Centre Bioinformatics Home Publications

The research is providing increased understanding of the genetic basis for the disease and may offer fundamental insights into the underlying causes of obesity, diabetes, and sensory defects in humans. Knockout Mouse Reveals Genetic Mechanism In Defective Mammalian Ear Developoment related stories Related section: As part of the research effort, 46 living Alström individuals have been located in 10 countries, including the U.S. and Canada. Many of those individuals will be attending the Second International Alström Syndrome Gathering, sponsored by the Society for Alström Syndrome Families, July 17-21 in San Luis Obispo, Calif. The first Alström gathering was in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, in 1995, when only nine individuals were known.
