Genetic Variants in Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD) Synthesis Pathway

April 17, 2024 updated by: Myra J. Wick, Mayo Clinic

Identifying Genetic Variants in Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide (NAD) Synthesis Pathway in Patients With Congenital Malformations

Researchers are trying to identify versions of genes as well as factors in subjects blood associated with certain types of congenital malformations(CMs). This study will help the researchers to better understand family traits that contribute to CMs.

Study Population

A US population consisting of adults with VACTERL, adults and offspring with a family history of VACTERL, and women with a history of miscarriage and/or congenital malformations.

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  1. Adults with confirmed or putative diagnosis of VACTERL association;
  2. Families (mother, father, biological offspring) with a history of VACTERL-associated malformations
  3. Gravid or non-gravid women with a history of miscarriage and/or offspring with non-VACTERL-associated malformations
  4. Willingness to abstain from red meat, meat products, chicken, peanuts, or brewer's yeast (including beer) at least 24 hours prior to blood and urine collection

Exclusion Criteria:

1) Parents of non-biological children 3) Children with congenital malformations associated with an identifiable environmental or lifestyle exposure 4) Children with congenital malformations associated with confirmed chromosomal disorders 5) Failure to abstain from red meat, meat products, chicken, peanuts, or brewer's yeast (including beer) at least 24 hours prior to blood and urine collection.
