| Remarks |
This donor was initially diagnosed as Parkinson's disease because he exhibited a slowing of movements. Within 1 year he developed problems with attention span and memory. Further progression of intellectual impairment necessitated assistance with all activities of daily living. Treatment with anti-Parkinsonian medications did not help motor or intellectual function. EEG revealed general slowing. CSF exam was remarkable for an increase in protein concentration. CT scan demonstrated widened sulci and ventricular dilatation. Autopsy confirmed Alzheimer's disease. The skin biopsy was taken ante-mortem from the forearm. Culture was initiated on 11/06/85 using explants of minced skin. The cell morphology is fibroblastlike. The culture is a mosaic with karyotype: 46,XY/46,X,-Y,+mar/46,XY, t(2;3)(2pter>2q37::3q21>3qter;3pter>3q21::2q37>2qter); unbalanced; 82%/ 15%/3%. Marker is heterochromatin positive. Culture was frozen at PDL 10. A lymphoblast culture from same donor is AG08526. The legacy karyotype description shown in this Remark may not be representative of the current available product. |
