(2018) establish a link between these diseases, finding that cilium function is compromised in Down syndrome as a result of increased Pericentrin expression.
2), its homology to the mnb gene, and the in situ hybridization expression patterns of the murine Dyrk combined with the fact that transgenic mice for a YAC to which DYRK maps are mentally deficient suggest that DYRK may be involved in the abnormal neurogenesis found in Down syndrome.
Down's syndrome risks are estimated between 15 and 20 completed weeks' gestation (cGW) using an algorithm involving maternal age and serum alpha-fetoprotein (AFP), chorionic gonadotrophin and unconjugated oestriol levels, each expressed as a multiple of the median level (MoM) at the cGW.
Down's syndrome (trisomy 21) brain tissue is considered to be susceptible to oxidative injury, mainly because its increased Cu/Zn-superoxide dismutase (SOD1) activity is not followed by an adaptive rise in hydrogen peroxide metabolizing enzymes.
Down Syndrome (DS) is caused by the presence of three copies of the whole human chromosome 21 (HC21) or of a HC21 restricted region; the phenotype is likely to have originated from the altered expression of genes in the HC21.

Down syndrome acute lymphoblastic leukemia, a highly heterogeneous disease in which aberrant expression of CRLF2 is associated with mutated JAK2: a report from the International BFM Study Group.
Down syndrome (DS) critical region gene 4 (DSCR4) promoter region was found to be hypomethylated in placental tissues and densely methylated in maternal blood cells.
Down syndrome (DS) patients with chromosome 21 trisomy present AD-like pathologies at earlier ages (40s) compared with sporadic AD patients, because APP gene expression is 1.5-fold higher than that in healthy people, thus causing a 1.5-fold increase in Aβ production.
Down syndrome (DS) arises from a triplication of chromosome 21, causing overproduction of the amyloid precursor protein and predisposes individuals to early Alzheimer's disease (AD).
