-
CONTEXT: Alström syndrome (AS) is a monogenic form of infancy-onset obesity and insulin resistance, caused by ALMS1 mutations. The natural history of the insulin resistance is unknown, in particular how this relates to changes in body composition. It is also unclear how ALMS1 mutations relate to the characteristic phenotype. OBJECTIVES: Our objectives were to characterize body composition and metabolic parameters, to establish ALMS1 mutation spectrum of United Kingdom AS patients, and to dete...
