The genetic basis of hyaline fibromatosis syndrome in patients from a consanguineous background: a case series

Abstract: BackgroundHyaline fibromatosis syndrome (HFS) is a rare heritable multi-systemic disorder with significant dermatologic manifestations. It is caused by mutations in ANTXR2, which encodes a transmembrane receptor involved in collagen VI regulation in the extracellular matrix. Over 40 mutations in the ANTXR2 gene have been associated with cases of HFS. Variable severity of the disorder in different patients has been proposed to be related to the specific mutations in these patients and their location within the … Show more

“…Hasta la fecha se han reportado 169 casos. [1][2][3][4][5] El síndrome de fibromatosis hialina se origina por variantes patogénicas en el gen que codifica para el receptor 2 de la toxina del ántrax (ANTX2), también conocido como proteína capilar morfogénica-2 (CMG2), con locus en 4q21.…”

“…(2016) , point to the low life expectancy of people affected by ISH, the child who participated in this study, even taking into account the intensity of the problems presented by him, surpassed the prognosis of death at around 24 months of life. Regarding this child's longevity, Youssefian et al. (2018) consider that the variable severity of the disease in different patients has been related to the specific mutations in these patients and their location within the gene.…”
