Fetal anomalies v0.4344 NFIB Zornitza Stark Marked gene: NFIB as ready
Fetal anomalies v0.4344 NFIB Zornitza Stark Gene: nfib has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Fetal anomalies v0.4344 NFIB Zornitza Stark Classified gene: NFIB as Green List (high evidence)
Fetal anomalies v0.4344 NFIB Zornitza Stark Gene: nfib has been classified as Green List (High Evidence).
Fetal anomalies v0.4294 NFIB Krithika Murali gene: NFIB was added
gene: NFIB was added to Fetal anomalies. Sources: Literature
Mode of inheritance for gene: NFIB was set to MONOALLELIC, autosomal or pseudoautosomal, NOT imprinted
Publications for gene: NFIB were set to 30388402; 33130023; 32902921
Phenotypes for gene: NFIB were set to Macrocephaly, acquired, with impaired intellectual development - MIM#618286
Review for gene: NFIB was set to GREEN
Added comment: NFIB haploinsufficiency associated with syndromic ID. Macrocephaly and corpus callosum anomalies are recurrent phenotypic features. OMIM notes macrocephaly postnatal in onset, but review of published cases shows some instances of relative macrocephaly at birth. Also corpus callosal anomalies - agenesis and dysgenesis, noted on MRI-B in childhood but possibility of detecting this antenatally in future cases. 2 unrelated individuals reported with minor cardiac anomalies also.

OMIM notes macrocephaly postnatal in onset. PMID: 30388402 - 18 individuals reported, of whom 11 had deletions of this gene and the rest had SNVs. Relative macrocephaly noted based on growth parameters in 4 individuals (e.g. x1 male with BW 22nd centile and HC 99th centile in an apparently uncomplicated pregnancy) - macrocephaly became more pronounced with age. In addition, 2 individuals had congenital cardiac anomalies (x1 small VSD and x1 narrow pulmonary artery) and 2 individuals had complete agenesis of the corpus callosum.

33130023 - Report one affected individual. Birth weight was 4.13 kg (Z-score 1.50, 93rd percentile), length was 52 cm (Z-score 1.12, 87th percentile) and his head circumference was 37 cm (Z-score 2.00, 98th percentile). MRI-B at 12 months confirmed agenesis of the corpus callosum

32902921 - report one patient with normal antenatal history, no birth HC provided, macrocephaly noted at 7 months. MRI-B showed mild dysgensis of the corpus callosum age 5. 2nd unrelated patient's birth weight 3.43 kg(57th centile,Zscore 0.17), length 52.8 cm (94th centile, Zscore1.54), and OFC 37.5 cm (99th centile,Zscore 2.39). MRI-B age 5 showed dysgenesis of the corpus callosum.
