Alström syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that affects many body systems. Symptoms develop gradually, beginning in infancy, and can be variable. In childhood, the disorder is generally characterized by vision and hearing abnormalities, childhood obesity, and heart disease (cardiomyopathy). Over time, diabetes mellitus, liver problems, and slowly progressive kidney dysfunction which can lead to kidney failure may develop. Alström syndrome is caused by mutations in the ALMS1 gene. It is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. While there is no specific treatment for Alström syndrome, symptoms can be managed by a team of specialists with the goal of improving the quality of life and increasing the lifespan.
MalaCards based summary : Alstrom Syndrome, also known as alström syndrome, is related to acanthosis nigricans and hyperinsulinism. An important gene associated with Alstrom Syndrome is ALMS1 (ALMS1 Centrosome And Basal Body Associated Protein). The drugs Hormone Antagonists and Hormones, Hormone Substitutes, and Hormone Antagonists have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include liver, kidney and heart, and related phenotypes are short stature and truncal obesity Disease Ontology : 12 An autosomal recessive disease that is characterized by multiorgan dysfunction. The key features are childhood obesity, blindness due to congenital retinal dystrophy, and sensorineural hearing loss with autosomal recessive inheritance and has material basis in mutations in the ALMS1 gene. Genetics Home Reference : 26 Alström syndrome is a rare condition that affects many body systems. Many of the signs and symptoms of this condition begin in infancy or early childhood, although some appear later in life. OMIM : 58 Alstrom syndrome is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by progressive cone-rod dystrophy leading to blindness, sensorineural hearing loss, childhood obesity associated with hyperinsulinemia, and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Dilated cardiomyopathy occurs in approximately 70% of patients during infancy or adolescence. Renal failure, pulmonary, hepatic, and urologic dysfunction are often observed, and systemic fibrosis develops with age (summary by Collin et al., 2002; Marshall et al., 2007). (203800) UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot : 76 Alstrom syndrome: A rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by progressive cone- rod retinal dystrophy, neurosensory hearing loss, early childhood obesity and diabetes mellitus type 2. Dilated cardiomyopathy, acanthosis nigricans, male hypogonadism, hypothyroidism, developmental delay and hepatic dysfunction can also be associated with the syndrome.
