Re:achondroplasia & MPS query/Glenda & AJ

[Guest guest]

Thanks to you both,

I couldn't find anything at the hospital site, Glenda. Searched on Medline's

mesh terms, and mucopolysaccharidosis is there under mucinoses, as a CTD. Good

for you for even remembering the name! Unfortunately, achondroplasia wasn't

there, drat. Don't know why, they have joint laxity etc.

AJ, I nearly got distracted with that link to all those wonderful children.

Thanks for taking the time to find out more. I've added the pedinfo link to my

favourites; very helpful, and thanks for the articles, which seem to suggest

that both have problems involving fibroblasts, so they should both be considered

CDTs after all (?)

Well done Glenda!!
