Ribosomopathies: mechanisms of disease
Hani Nakhoul et al. Clin Med Insights Blood Disord. 2014.
Abstract
Ribosomopathies are diseases caused by alterations in the structure or function of ribosomal components. Progress in our understanding of the role of the ribosome in translational and transcriptional regulation has clarified the mechanisms of the ribosomopathies and the relationship between ribosomal dysfunction and other diseases, especially cancer. This review aims to discuss these topics with updated information.
Keywords: 5q-syndrome; Diamond-Blackfan anemia (DBA); Schwachman-Diamond syndrome (SDS); Treacher Collins syndrome (TCS); cartilage hair hypoplasia (CHH); dyskeratosis congenita (DC); p53; ribosomopathy.
