Extractions: *For Medical Professionals only, registration required Tar syndrome, an acronym for an anaemia consisting of Thrombocytopenia with Absent Radius (see aplasia (III:1), Fig. 2 ). The syndrome resembles Fanconis anaemia and is characterized by severe haemorrhage and skeletal abnormalities. Both radii are absent, the ulnae are shortened and the knees are dysplastic. However, the patients have five digits in the hands, as opposed to the absence of the thumb in persons with Fanconi's anaemia.

The TAR Syndrome Support Group is a small, parent-led group with limited funds. The aims of the group are as follows. To offer support to families affected by TAR Syndrome. To raise awareness of TAR Syndrome with professionals and other interested individuals. To link families in similar situations and areas. To give new families hope for their children's future through the shared experiences of older children in the group. To share information on equipment, benefits, relevant support organisations etc. To support families through increasing public awareness of TAR Syndrome by raising funds, organising events and publishing literature.

Extractions: Thrombopoietin in Patients With Congenital Thrombocytopenia and Absent Radii: Elevated Serum Leveis, Normal Receptor Expression, But Defective Reactivity to Thrombopoietin By Matthias Ballmaier, Harald Schulze, Gabriele Strauß, Klara Cherkaoui, Nicole Wittner, Stefanle Lynen, Susanne Wolters, Jakob Bogenberger, and Karl WeIte The pathophysiology of thrombocytopenia in the syndrome of thrombocytopenia with absent radil (TAR) is not yet un derstood. We examined thrombopoietin (TPO) serum leveis and the in vitro reactivity of platelets to TPO in five patients affected with TAR syndrome. We found elevated TPO serum leveis in all patients tested, excluding a TPO production de fect as cause for thrombocytopenia in TAR syndrome. In addition, we found similar expression of the TPO receptor c-MpI on the surface of platelets from TAR patients (5 of 5) and a similar molecular weight of the receptor as compared with healthy controls (4 of 4). Platelet response to adenosine diphosphate or thrombin receptor agonist peptide SFLLRN (TRAP) was normal in TAR patients. However, in contrast to results with healthy controls we could show absence öf in vitro reactivity of platelets from TAR patients to recombi nant TPO as measured by testing TPO synergism to adenine diphosphate and TRAP in platelet activation. TPO induced tyrosine phosphorylation of platelet proteins was com pletely absent (3 of 4) or markedly decreased (1 of 4). Our results indicate that defective megakaryocytopoiesisl thrombocytopoiesis in TAR syndrome is not caused by a defect in TPO production but a lack of response to TPO in the signal transduction pathway of c-Mpl.
Untitled episodes of leukocytosis and leukemoid reaetions with white cell counts greater than35,000/µL and a left shift of myeloid eells in infants with tar syndrome. http://www.tar-syndrom.de/tpo_4.html
Extractions: Mega counts with an abnormal colony morphology. In these colonies cells were smaller and the number of eetls per colony was mueh higher than in normal CFU-Mega derived colonies. In addition to the patient we tested earlier, we were ahle to test the presence of CFU-Mega in the bone marrow From orily one TAR patient, a newborn baby-gin whose bone marrow was aspirated for diagnostic purposes. We could not detect any megakaryocyte colony growth after stimulation with TPO, indicating that megakaryoeyte devel opment is markedly irnpaired. Ilowever, more patients liave tu be tested to malte a final statement conceming megakaryo eytic colony growth in vitro. In contrast, the numbers of nonmegakaryocytic colonies (CFU-GM and BFU-E) stimulated by other growth factors (G-CSF GM-CSF IL-3 SCF and EPO) were increased. This is in aeeordance with reports of episodes of leukocytosis and leukemoid reaetions with white cell counts greater than 35,000/µL and a left shift of myeloid eells in infants with TAR syndrome. These reie tions eould be caused by elevated leveis of other hematopoi efle growth faetors. In fact, we found elevated levels of IL 11 in at least three out of five patients affected with the TAR syndrome. IL- 11 is a cytokine that is reported tu promote the growth of myeloid and erythroid precursors.

Extractions: Received: 10 August 1998 / Revised: 4 December 1998 / Accepted: 7 January 1999 Abstract The TAR syndrome is an inherited disorder characterized by limb abnormalities, especially absent radii, and hypomegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia. Previous reports have included two infants with genitourinary abnormalities. We report a newborn with bilaterally absent radii and foreshortened ulnae, hypoplastic humeri, a left clubfoot, a ventricular septum defect, and persistent thrombocytopenia. This constellation of abnormalities is consistent with the TAR syndrome. In addition, he had a horseshoe kidney with parenchyma of normal appearance. This is the first report of horseshoe kidney in association with the TAR syndrome. Key words Article in PDF format (191 KB) Online publication: December 16, 1999
