HSAN Type IV
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Using the pathophysiology of CIPA as a foundation, this review investigates the ways in which NGF-dependent neurons contribute to interoception, homeostasis and emotional responses and, together with the brain, immune and endocrine systems, play crucial roles in pain, itch and inflammation. 22882139 2012
CUI: C0020074
Disease: HSAN Type IV
HSAN Type IV
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis (hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy type IV) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by a defect in neurotrophic tyrosine kinase receptor and nerve growth factor, as reported in previous studies. 20647579 2010
CUI: C0020074
Disease: HSAN Type IV
HSAN Type IV
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Since patients with congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis lack NGF-dependent unmyelinated (C-) and thinly myelinated (Aδ-) fibers, and their dermal sweat glands are without innervation, they exhibit no pain, itch, signs of neurogenic inflammation or sympathetic skin responses. 20977328 2010
CUI: C0020074
Disease: HSAN Type IV
HSAN Type IV
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE Patients with CIPA provide us a rare opportunity to explore the developmental and physiological function of the NGF-dependent neurons in behavior, cognitive, and mental activities that are not available in animal studies. 19201660 2009
CUI: C0020074
Disease: HSAN Type IV
HSAN Type IV
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis (CIPA) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase 1 (NTRK1) gene, which encodes the receptor for nerve growth factor. 19089473 2009
CUI: C0020074
Disease: HSAN Type IV
HSAN Type IV
0.400 Biomarker disease BEFREE We hypothesized that HSAN IV represents a natural model for impaired NGF effect on the neuroendocrine system in humans. 15695606 2005

Disease: HSAN Type IV
HSAN Type IV
0.400 GeneticVariation disease BEFREE Congenital insensitivity to pain with anhidrosis (CIPA) is an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the neurotrophic tyrosine receptor kinase 1 (NTRK1) gene which encodes the receptor for nerve growth factor (NGF). 16138253 2005
