Human Diseases
• Please be very respectful when viewing the following photos and videos. These are real life
• We should be all very grateful for being healthy, for being who we are, and having what we have.

Mutations• Trisomy – 3
homologous chromosomes
eg. Down syndrome = 3 no. 21 chromosomes
• Monosomy – only one sex chromosome XO
Eg. Turner’s syndrome

Adenoleukodystrophy
• ALD) is a rare, inherited metabolic disorder that afflicts the young boy Lorenzo Odone, whose story is told in the 1993 film 'Lorenzo's oil'. In this disease the fatty covering (myelin sheath) on nerve fibers in the brain is lost, and the adrenal gland degenerates, leading to progressive neurological disability and death.

Huntington’s Disease• Huntington's disease
(HD) is an inherited, degenerative brain disorder which results in an eventual loss of both mental and physical control. The disease is also known as Huntington's chorea. Chorea means "dance-like movements" and refers to the uncontrolled motions often associated with the disease.

Hemophilia, the royal disease• Hemophilia is the oldest known hereditary bleeding disorder.• Caused by a recessive gene on the X chromosome.• There are about 20,000 hemophilia patients in the United
States.• One can bleed to death with small cuts.
• The severity of hemophilia is related to the amount of the clotting factor in the blood. About 70% of hemophilia patients have less than one percent of the normal amount and, thus, have severe hemophilia.

Turner’s Syndrome

Sickle Cell Anemia
• An inherited, chronic disease in which the red blood cells, normally disc-shaped, become crescent shaped. As a result, they function abnormally and cause small blood clots. These clots give rise to recurrent painful episodes called "sickle cell pain crises".

Cystic Fibrosis (CF)
• Monogenic• Cause: deletion of only 3 bases on
chromosome 7• Fluid in lungs, potential respiratory failure• Common among Caucasians…1 in 20 are
carriers– Therefore is it dominant or recessive?
![Page 22: Genetic mutations](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062705/556b8dd2d8b42ada358b457d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Tay-Sachs disease
• Monogenic, autosomal recessive• Central nervous system degrades, ultimately
causing death.• Most common among people of Jewish,
eastern Europe descent.

Muscular Dystrophy
• What Is Muscular Dystrophy?Muscular dystrophy is a disease in which the muscles of the body get weaker and weaker and slowly stop working because of a lack of a certain protein (see the relationship to genetics?)
• Can be passed on by one or both parents, depending on the form of MD (therefore is autosomal dominant and recessive)
![Page 24: Genetic mutations](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062705/556b8dd2d8b42ada358b457d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Diabetes • Disease in which the body does not produce or properly use insulin.
– Insulin is a hormone that is needed to convert sugar, starches, and other food into energy needed for daily life.
• Genetic mutation can lead to Type 1 diabetes, but no one sure if relative to a specific gene

Color Blindness
• Cause: x-linked recessive
• 1/10 males have, 1/100 females have. Why the difference?
• Individuals are unable to distinguish shades of red-green.
• Are you color blind?
![Page 26: Genetic mutations](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062705/556b8dd2d8b42ada358b457d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Albinism• Patients are unable to produce skin or eye
pigments, and thus are light-sensitive• Autosomal recessive
– Therefore, is it monogenic or chromosomal?
![Page 27: Genetic mutations](https://reader036.vdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062705/556b8dd2d8b42ada358b457d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Achondroplasia (a.k.a. dwarfism)
• Monogenic, autosomal– Carriers express genes, therefore, is it dominant or
recessive?
– There is also a disease called gigantism (Andre the Giant)
