SUCLA2-related mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) depletion syndrome is an inherited disorder that affects the early development of the brain. Affected infants typically develop weak muscle tone (hypotonia) in the first few months of life. In these infants, hypotonia can delay the development of motor skills such as lifting the head and rolling over. Children with SUCLA2-related mtDNA depletion syndrome typically have difficulty eating and may require a feeding tube; as a result, they have difficulty growing and gaining weight as expected (failure to thrive).
Beskrivning
SUCLA2-related mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) depletion syndrome is an inherited disorder that affects the early development of the brain. Affected infants typically develop weak muscle tone (hypotonia) in the first few months of life. In these infants, hypotonia can delay the development of motor skills such as lifting the head and rolling over. Children with SUCLA2-related mtDNA depletion syndrome typically have difficulty eating and may require a feeding tube; as a result, they have difficulty growing and gaining weight as expected (failure to thrive).
Additional features of SUCLA2-related mtDNA depletion syndrome can include uncontrolled movements (dystonia), hearing loss, muscle wasting (atrophy), and intellectual disabilities. In most affected children, a substance called methylmalonic acid builds up in the blood.
People with SUCLA2-related mtDNA depletion syndrome typically have a shortened lifespan. Approximately 30 percent of individuals with SUCLA2-related mtDNA depletion syndrome do not survive past childhood.
Inheritance patterns
The source lists the following possible inheritance patterns: Autosomal recessive. More than one pattern can apply in different cases.

Cri du chat-syndrom
Cri du chat-syndrom is a chromosome problem caused by a missing piece of chromosome 5. The syndrome is called cri du chat (French for cry of the cat) because affected babies often have a high-pitched cry. Not all babies with the missing piece of chromosome 5 will develop cri du chat syndrome. Cri du chat syndrome may cause a variety of.

Cyklist kräkssyndrom
Cyklist kräkssyndrom is a condition which occurs mainly in children but can also affect adults. It is more common in people who have migraines. Children have severe episodes of feeling sick (nausea) and being sick (vomiting), sometimes with other symptoms. In between these episodes the person is completely well. There are various treatments.

Downs syndrom
Down's syndrome (also known as Down syndrome) is a genetic chromosome problem. Someone with Down's syndrome has an extra copy of chromosome 21 in the cells of their body. All people with Down's syndrome have some degree of learning disability. Down's syndrome may be detected before birth (prenatally) or after birth (postnatally). It cannot be.
