Excerpt

We have read with interest the article by Fairley and colleagues on the phenotypic heterogeneity of N370S (c.1226A>G) homozygotes among type I Gaucher patients (Fairley et al 2008). Accordingly, it seems that N370S homozygotes, as compared with N370S compound heterozygotes, tend to express a more attenuated phenotype, although a subgroup of the former exhibited more severe clinical manifestations including severe thrombocytopenia in 9%. …
