Abstract Our understanding of Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) has recently been
enhanced by advances in its molecular characterization. These advances have further …

Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is an overgrowth disorder characterized by
developmental anomalies, tissue and organ hyperplasia, and an increased risk of …

Background Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is a clinically variable and genetically
heterogeneous disorder, providing evidence that imprinted genes play key roles in the …

Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is a model imprinting disorder resulting from
mutations or epigenetic events involving imprinted genes at chromosome 11p15. 5. Thus …

The genetics of Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is complex and is thought to involve
multiple genes. It is known that three regions on chromosome 11p15 (BWSCR1, BWSCR2 …

Abstract Beckwith–Wiedemann Syndrome (BWS) results from mutations or epigenetic
events involving imprinted genes at 11p15. 5. Most BWS cases are sporadic and uniparental …

Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is an overgrowth syndrome demonstrating
heterogeneous molecular alterations of two imprinted domains on chromosome 11p15. The …

Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is an overgrowth disorder with variability in clinical
manifestations and molecular causes. In most cases, patients with BWS have normal …

Genomic imprinting, a process that causes genes to be expressed according to their
parental origin, affects a minority of human genes, probably less than 1,000. Nevertheless …

Abstract The Beckwith–Wiedemann syndrome (BWS) is characterized by somatic
overgrowth and a predisposition to pediatric embryonal tumors. It is associated with genetic …
