The condition is more common than muscular dystrophy and cystic fibrosis, but the development
of new therapeutic concepts is hindered by the fact that unlike muscular dystrophy and cystic fibrosis, where a
single mutated
gene causing the disease is known, the entire human chromosome 21 (containing around 300
genes) still has to be dissected into individual
gene - dose
contributions to the DS symptoms.
