Klinefelter's Syndrome, Dizygotic Twinning and Diabetes Mellitus

Engel and Forbes 1,2 noted that chromosomal non-disjunction commonly occurs in families with a genetic predisposition to “autoimmunity”. From a review of the literature, and a study of eighteen patients with chromatin-positive Klinefelter's syndrome, Nielsen 3 proposed that this syndrome is pro...

description Engel and Forbes 1,2 noted that chromosomal non-disjunction commonly occurs in families with a genetic predisposition to “autoimmunity”. From a review of the literature, and a study of eighteen patients with chromatin-positive Klinefelter's syndrome, Nielsen 3 proposed that this syndrome is probably associated with dizygotic twinning. He also summarized the results of three surveys which indicate that the frequency of twin births in sibships containing Turner's syndrome is about twice that in the general population. He concluded 3 that similar mechanisms may be responsible for sex chromosome non-disjunction and dizygotic twinning.
