Thoracic aortic aneurysm or dissection (GMS)
Gene: SMAD2
Submitted on behalf of the GMS Cardiology specialist group. This gene did not achieve a consensus Green rating; however, the group agreed that the existing evidence (published and in-house data) was sufficient to support inclusion in this panel.Created: 9 Dec 2019, 1:19 p.m. | Last Modified: 9 Dec 2019, 1:19 p.m.

See recent review from Bart Loeys team (Schepers et al 2009 PMID 29392890), also included in their TAAD panel. Limited information in the literature, amber gene list seems appropriate.Created: 25 Sep 2019, 9:45 a.m. | Last Modified: 25 Sep 2019, 9:45 a.m.

This gene was part of an initial gene list collated by Matthew Edwards Royal Brompton Hospital sent 16th Jan 2019 on behalf of the London South GLH for review by the GMS Cardiology Specialist Group. Only gene symbol from the Royal Brompton gene panel was provided - suggested initial gene rating and evidence for inclusion not provided with the list.Created: 20 Feb 2019, 2:17 p.m.
Comment when marking as ready: Meets evidence criteria in terms of three unrelated families reported. Only a single paper to date therefore tagged as watchlist in case further evidence emerges to the contrary. To be reviewed in the light of any new evidence.Created: 26 Jul 2017, 8:44 a.m.
Comment on mode of pathogenicity: Missense variation reported to date. Some evidence to suggest upregulation of SMAD2. Further cases required to confirm scope of causative variationCreated: 26 Jul 2017, 8:43 a.m.
Comment on list classification: Meets evidence criteria - three unrelated families reportedCreated: 26 Jul 2017, 8:41 a.m.
PMID 26247889 contains information about three unrelated cases with vascular disease, identified to have sequence variants in SMAD2. These are all missense variants, consdered to be pathogenic, with evidence of involvement in TGFbeta signalling and increased expression of SMAD2. I cannot find any contradictory evidence. The clinical phenotypes are an appropriate fit for this panel, however the evidence to date suggests that this is likely to be a relatively rare cause (3 from a cohort of 365).Created: 26 Jul 2017, 8:36 a.m.
