Genetics Home Reference: Wolfram syndrome is a condition that affects many of the body's systems. The hallmark features of Wolfram syndrome are high blood sugar levels resulting from a shortage of the hormone insulin (diabetes mellitus) and progressive vision loss due to degeneration of the nerves that carry information from the eyes to the brain (optic atrophy). People with Wolfram syndrome often also have pituitary gland dysfunction that results in the excretion of excessive amounts of urine (diabetes insipidus), hearing loss caused by changes in the inner ear (sensorineural deafness), urinary tract problems, reduced amounts of the sex hormone testosterone in males (hypogonadism), or neurological or psychiatric disorders.17
MalaCards: Wolfram Syndrome, also known as didmoad, is related to type 1 diabetes mellitus and wolfram syndrome 2. An important gene associated with Wolfram Syndrome is WFS1 (Wolfram syndrome 1 (wolframin)), and among its related pathways are GABA signaling in brain and Mechanisms of CFTR activation by S-nitrosoglutathione (normal and CF). The drug chromium picolinate and the compounds tungsten and " l-655,708 " have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include brain, t cells and b cells, and related mouse phenotypes are skeleton and liver/biliary system. Disease Ontology: A genetic disease that is characterized by diabetes mellitus, optic atrophy, and deafness as well as various other possible disorders and has material basis in autosomal recessive inheritance of homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the gene encoding wolframin (wfs1).6 NIH Rare Diseases: Wolfram syndrome, which is also known by the acronym DIDMOAD, is characterized by diabetes insipidus (DI); childhood-onset diabetes mellitus (DM); a gradual loss of vision caused by optic atrophy (OA); and deafness (D). Other complications that affect the bladder and nervous system may also occur. Mutations in two genes have been associated with Wolfram syndrome. The majority of cases are associated with mutations in the WFS1 gene. Mutations in the CISD2 gene have been identified in three consanguineous families of Jordanian descent. The condition is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. Treatment is symptomatic and supportive.30 Wikipedia: Wolfram syndrome, also called DIDMOAD (Diabetes Insipidus, Diabetes Mellitus, Optic Atrophy, and...44 more... OMIM: 222300 |
