While new genetic analysis methods are widely used in the clinic, few researchers have focused on trigeminal neuralgia (TN) with familial clustering (≥ 2 TN patients in one kindred family). Previous literature suggests that familial trigeminal neuralgia (FTN) may be associated with inherited genetic factors. To date, few next-generation sequencing studies have been reported for FTN. This study investigated the pathogenic mechanism of FTN by using whole-exome sequencing (WES) technology, which may enhance our understanding of human TN pathophysiology. METHOD: We performed WES for 7 probands from families of FTN. Sanger sequencing was performed for two control groups (FTN family members group and nonfamilial TN subject group) to potentially identify new FTN-related gene mutations. In families where FTN probands carried potentially pathogenic gene mutations, the ribonucleic acid (RNA) of FTN probands and related family members, as well as nonfamilial TN patients were analysed by RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) to confirm differential gene expression.

THIS RESOURCE IS NO LONGER IN SERVICE. Documented on January 9, 2023. An aggregated data platform for genome sequencing data created by a coalition of investigators seeking to aggregate and harmonize exome sequencing data from a variety of large-scale sequencing projects, and to make summary data available for the wider scientific community. The data set provided on this website spans 61,486 unrelated individuals sequenced as part of various disease-specific and population genetic studies. They have removed individuals affected by severe pediatric disease, so this data set should serve as a useful reference set of allele frequencies for severe disease studies. All of the raw data from these projects have been reprocessed through the same pipeline, and jointly variant-called to increase consistency across projects. They ask that you not publish global (genome-wide) analyses of these data until after the ExAC flagship paper has been published, estimated to be in early 2015. If you''re uncertain which category your analyses fall into, please email them. The aggregation and release of summary data from the exomes collected by the Exome Aggregation Consortium has been approved by the Partners IRB (protocol 2013P001477, Genomic approaches to gene discovery in rare neuromuscular diseases).
