Extractions: MOLECULAR GENETICS OF BONE DISORDERS DR. DANNY CHAN Department of Biochemistry, The University of Hong Kong Mutation analysis of candidate genes is an important stepping-stone to the understanding of molecular mechanisms of genetic diseases, and studies of genetic diseases can provide a window into normal biological processes. A limiting step in these studies is the ability to rapidly scan for potential mutations in candidate genes. Over the years, numerous methods have been developed to facilitate this process. These include chemical or enzyme cleavage of mismatched hetero-duplexes formed between DNA sequences derived from normal and mutant alleles, and the analysis of subtle conformational changes of hetero-duplex or single-stranded DNA resulted from an abnormal sequence. The approach taken depends on a number of factors. As examples, mutation analysis of collagen defects in osteochondrodysplasias will be used to highlight how different approaches can be best applied to various candidate genes of the collagen family of proteins.

Extractions: Human Physiology 6/e Fox Student Online Learning Center Bone Disorders Skeletal Giantism is a condition of abnormally increased height that usually results from excessive cartilage and bone formation at the epiphyseal plates of long bones. The most common type of giantism, pituitary giantism, results from excess secretion of pituitary growth hormone. However, the large stature of some individuals can result from genetic factors rather than from abnormal levels of growth hormone. Acromegaly (ak'ro-meg'al-e) is also caused by excess pituitary growth hormone secretion. However, acromegaly involves growth of connective tissue, including bones, after the epiphyseal plates have ossified. The effect mainly involves increased diameter of all bones and is most strikingly apparent in the face and hands. Many pituitary giants also develop acromegaly later in life. Dwarfism, the condition in which a person is abnormally short, is the opposite of giantism. Pituitary dwarfism results when abnormally low levels of pituitary growth hormone affect the whole body, thus producing a small person who is normally proportioned. Achondroplastic (a-kon'dro-plas'tik) dwarfism, involving a disproportionate shortening of the long bones, is more common than proportionate dwarfing and produces a person with a nearly normal-sized trunk and head but shorter-than-normal limbs. Most cases of achondroplastic dwarfism are the result of genetic defects that cause deficient or improper growth of the cartilage model, especially the epiphyseal plate, and often involve deficient collagen synthesis. Often the cartilage matrix does not have its normal integrity, and the chondrocytes of the epiphysis cannot form their normal columns, even through rates of cell proliferation may be normal.

Extractions: computed tomography scan (Also called a CT or CAT scan.) - a diagnostic imaging procedure that uses a combination of x-rays and computer technology to produce cross-sectional images (often called slices), both horizontally and vertically, of the body. A CT scan shows detailed images of any part of the body, including the bones, muscles, fat, and organs. CT scans are more detailed than general x-rays. A CT scan provides information about bone, muscle, and fat. It is also used to assist the physician in locating the exact area for a biopsy. magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) - a diagnostic procedure that uses a combination of large magnets, radiofrequencies, and a computer to produce detailed images of organs and structures within the body. MRI scans provide detailed information about soft tissue, the bone marrow cavity, and bone tumors.

Extractions: "Growing pains" are symptoms most often affecting medium, large and giant breeds of dog; those breeds which are usually subjected to rapid growth periods within their first year of development. Symptoms of pain and lameness can be a result of any trauma to bones, joints or the supporting soft tissues, but many cases are caused by specific diseases of the bone. During normal growth and development, cartilage growth precedes bone formation. The cartilage grows and becomes calcified. This calcified layer of cartilage becomes invaded by vessels from the bone marrow. Some of the calcified cartilage is resorbed, but some remains and is used as a framework for the bone. In instances of bone disease, one or more of the above steps is interrupted and the formation of bone ceases or causes a defect if bone formation continues. Exposure of incompletely-formed or abnormally-formed bone to pressure and tension resulting from movement causes symptoms of pain and lameness. It is important to understand that "growing pains" are a symptom and do not constitute a diagnosis. For proper treatment of bone disease and prevention of further bone damage and secondary complications, it is essential that the underlying cause of pain and lameness be identified.
