Sickle cell anemia disease is an inherited disorders that causes abnormal shaped red blood cells. All types of sickle cell disease are caused by a genetic change in hemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying protein inside the red blood cells. The abnormality causes chronic anemia, painful events, and several complications due to tissue and organ damage.

Rubinstein-Taybi syndrome (also known as Broad Thumb-Hallux Syndrome,RSTS, and RTS) is a rare genetic disorder. This disorder is caused by gene mutations on chromosome 16. Individuals with this disorder have conditions such as; short stature, moderate to severe mental retardation, distinctive facial features, and broad thumbs and first toes. People with this disorder may...

Sanfilippo syndrome, or Mucopolysaccharidosis III (MPS-III) is a rare genetic disorder caused by a deficiency in one of the enzymes needed to breakdown glycosaminoglycan heparan sulfate in the metabolism. The heparan sulfate slowly builds in the brain; causing hyperactivity, sleep disorders, loss of speech, and dementia.
