Noonan syndrome is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder characterized by a combination of typical facial features, heart defects, short stature, skeletal abnormalities, mild developmental delay and a predisposition to myeloproliferative disorders. This syndrome is caused by germline mutations in genes encoding components or regulators of the Rat Sarcoma (RAS) / extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) signaling pathway, which is essential for cell cycle differentiation, growth, and senescence.~Patients with Noonan syndrome or related diseases are followed at the children's hospital, Toulouse University Hospital. During regular check-up visits, an extra sample of blood and urine will be collected and stored for research utilisation with the patient's consent. The ultimate objective of this collection is to provide available biological resources to facilitate the development of subsequent studies aimed at better characterizing the multisystemic disorders in Noonan syndrome, to understand the pathophysiology of the disease, and to identify biological factors that predict the severity and progression of the disease. The possibility of having systematically collected biological resources will make it possible to answer certain questions more quickly depending on the progress of research.
The present study will establish a collection of biological samples from Noonan patients to be used for research purposes only, with due respect for confidentiality.
