Summaries for Lymphangiectasis

About this section
MalaCards based summary : Lymphangiectasis, also known as lymphangiectasia, is related to lymphangioma and hennekam lymphangiectasia-lymphedema syndrome 2. An important gene associated with Lymphangiectasis is ACTC1 (Actin, Alpha, Cardiac Muscle 1), and among its related pathways/superpathways are Cytoskeletal Signaling and Striated Muscle Contraction. The drugs Sirolimus and Everolimus have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include small intestine, lung and heart.
