    The Attic and The Wheelchair V.C. Andrews\u27s Accident and The Dollanganger Series

    No full text
    Author V.C. Andrews became known in 1979 with her first novel Flowers in the Attic and continued the series with Petals on the Wind, If There be Thorns, and Seeds of Yesterday. Problematic themes such as sudden accidents, romantic rape, incest, and mother daughter rivalry emerge continuously in each novel. In her interview with Douglas E. Winter, Andrews explains that since her debilitating fall down the stairs at the age of fifteen she lived with and depended on her mother. Unable to fulfill the goals of her childhood, Andrews read fairy tales, and romance novels and wrote her fantasies in the Dollanganger Series. The troublesome characteristics of sudden death, taboo sex, and gender roles reveal a stunted emotional development in the author. This thesis examines the possibility that the series\u27s disturbing, repeated themes are inspired by Andrews\u27s debilitating fall down the stairs when she was fifteen

    Clinical evidence of decreased olfaction in Bardet-Biedl syndrome caused by a deletion in the BBS4 gene

    No full text
    Recent discoveries have lead to the hypothesis that ciliary dysfunction is a mechanism underlying the pathogenesis of Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS). Here, we describe two individuals with decreased olfaction who are members of an extended family affected with BBS caused by a homozygous deletion (c.77-220del) in the BBS4 gene. These findings correlate with the evidence that several BBS proteins, including BBS4, are expressed in the olfactory epithelium (OE). Although the prevalence and the spectrum of impaired olfaction in BBS are not known, the causal relationship of the BBS4 deletion in this family and the decreased olfaction is corroborated by evidence that Bbs2 and Bbs4 knockout mice have severe olfaction deficits and that also patients with BBS caused by mutations in other BBS genes can have impaired olfaction. This finding broadens the spectrum of clinical manifestations associated with BBS, confirms the role of BBS4 in olfaction, and lends support to the hypothesis that ciliary dysfunction is an important aspect of BBS pathogenesis. © 2005 Wiley-Liss, Inc
