Vesicoureteral reflux 8; Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, classic-likeAD/ARCardiovascular; Gastrointestinal; RenalIn Vesicoureteral reflux, monitoring and intervention related to renal sequelae may be beneficial in terms of helping to preserve renal function; In Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, reported features include aortic dilatation (which may not have a high risk of progression), severe diverticular intestinal disease with ruptured diverticula, pancolonic diverticulitis, and rectal prolapse, mitral valve prolapse requiring valve replacement, and obstructive airway disease, though it is not clear if these are all related to TNXB or to other genetic anomalies; Surveillance related to cardiovascular anomalies may be beneficialCardiovascular; Dermatologic; Gastrointestinal; Musculoskeletal; Renal9288108; 11642233; 12180144; 12865992; 15793839; 15733269; 19921645; 19557868; 20301456; 21959861; 23284009; 23620400; 23768946

Variants pathogenicity by type

Statistics on ClinVar variants can assist in determining whether a specific variant type in the TNXB gene is commonly pathogenic or not.

In the table, we include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, Mane Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equals 1. Click the count to view the source variants.

Warning: slight differences between displayed counts and the number of variants in ClinVar may occur, primarily due to (1) the application of a different transcript and/or consequence by our variant effect predictor or (2) differences in clinical significance: we classify Benign/Likely benign variants as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic variants as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Appears to mediate interactions between cells and the extracellular matrix. Substrate-adhesion molecule that appears to inhibit cell migration. Accelerates collagen fibril formation. May play a role in supporting the growth of epithelial tumors. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17033827}.;
Disease
DISEASE: Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, classic-like (EDSCLL) [MIM:606408]: A form of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, a group of connective tissue disorders characterized by skin hyperextensibility, articular hypermobility, and tissue fragility. EDSCLL patients lack atrophic scars, a major diagnostic criteria for classic Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Delayed wound healing is only present in a subset of patients. EDSCLL inheritance is autosomal recessive. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11642233, ECO:0000269|PubMed:15733269, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23768946}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.; DISEASE: Vesicoureteral reflux 8 (VUR8) [MIM:615963]: A disease belonging to the group of congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract. It is characterized by the reflux of urine from the bladder into the ureters and sometimes into the kidneys, and is a risk factor for urinary tract infections. Primary disease results from a developmental defect of the ureterovesical junction. In combination with intrarenal reflux, the resulting inflammatory reaction may result in renal injury or scarring, also called reflux nephropathy. Extensive renal scarring impairs renal function and may predispose patients to hypertension, proteinuria, renal insufficiency and end-stage renal disease. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23620400}. Note=The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.;
