Arterial Tortuosity Syndrome (ATS) is a rare genetic disorder characterized by the elongation and tortuosity of the arteries. This condition is associated with mutations in the SLC2A10 gene, which encodes the GLUT10 protein, a member of the glucose transporter family.
Signs and Symptoms
Individuals with Arterial Tortuosity Syndrome often present with a variety of symptoms, including:
Complications can include the development of aneurysms and stenosis in affected arteries, which can lead to serious cardiovascular issues.
Genetics
Arterial Tortuosity Syndrome is inherited in an autosomal recessive manner. This means that an individual must inherit two copies of the mutated SLC2A10 gene, one from each parent, to be affected by the condition. Carriers, who have only one copy of the mutation, typically do not show symptoms.
Diagnosis
Diagnosis of ATS is based on clinical evaluation and confirmed through genetic testing. The presence of characteristic symptoms, along with a family history of the condition, can prompt genetic testing for mutations in the SLC2A10 gene.
Treatment
There is no cure for Arterial Tortuosity Syndrome, but treatment focuses on managing symptoms and preventing complications. This may include:
