genetic mosaicism

It has been confirmed that the disorder is an example of genetic mosaicism.

The stripes are a type of genetic mosaicism.

On this page, only genetic mosaicism is discussed.

It may be inherited, or caused by genetic mosaicism, chimerism, disease, or injury.

It is thought that CMTC represents a form of genetic mosaicism.

It is thought to result from genetic mosaicism, possibly an autosomal dominant mutation arising after conception and present only in a subpopulation of cells.

Families with retinoblastoma may have a founder mutation with embryonic mutagenesis causing genetic mosaicism of gametes.

Genetic causes for heterochromia include genetic mosaicism, where changes may take place in the dividing cells leading up to iris formation in the embryo.

Some researchers believe that hypomelanosis of Ito does not represent a distinct disorder but rather a symptom common to a group of disorders involving genetic mosaicism.

Research suggests that the frequency of genetic mosaicism among strangler figs may be quite high; it is unknown how this variation effects flowering in mosaic figs.

He is admitted to Princeton-Plainsboro Teaching Hospital, mainly because of his genetic mosaicism; when he was born, it was found that half the cells in his body are male and the other half female.

Alternatively, genetic mosaicism could mean that the number of certain varieties of fig in an ecosystem may be far lower than biologists have previously thought, and given populations may not have enough trees to maintain their symbiotic relationship with their pollinating wasps.

In the 2009 episode of House entitled, "The Softer Side", a teenager with Genetic Mosaicism that is unaware of his (the gender his parents choose for him) condition develops dehydration and is admitted to Princeton Plainsboro Teaching Hospital.

These tests can be used to screen family members of those afflicted with VHL disease; de novo cases that produce genetic mosaicism are more difficult to detect because mutations are not found in the white blood cells that are used for genetic analysis.
