If aortic dilatation is present, treatment with beta-adrenergic blockers or other medications should be considered in order to reduce hemodynamic stress; surgical intervention for aneurysms may be indicated; treatment of myopia as per ophthalmologist; surgical repair of abdominal hernias as indicated.</p><p><i>Prevention of secondary complications:</i> Subacute bacterial endocarditis prophylaxis is recommended for dental work or other procedures for individuals with cardiac complications.</p><p><i>Surveillance:</i> Developmental assessment with each visit; cervical spine evaluation and clinical evaluation for scoliosis as recommended by orthopedist; imaging per cardiologist familiar with this condition; ophthalmology exams as recommended by ophthalmologist.</p><p><i>Agents/circumstances to avoid:</i> Contact sports; use of agents that stimulate the cardiovascular system; activities that may lead to joint pain and/or injury.</p></div><div><h4 class="inline">Genetic counseling.</h4><p>SGS, caused by a <a class="def" href="/books/n/gene/glossary/def-item/heterozygous/">heterozygous</a> <a class="def" href="/books/n/gene/glossary/def-item/pathogenic-variant/">pathogenic variant</a> in <i>SKI</i>, is an <a class="def" href="/books/n/gene/glossary/def-item/autosomal-dominant/">autosomal dominant</a> disorder.

The SKI family of proteins negatively regulate SMAD-dependent TGF-&#x003b2; signaling by preventing nuclear <a class="def" href="/books/n/gene/glossary/def-item/translocation/">translocation</a> of the receptor-activated SMAD (R-SMAD)-SMAD4 complex and inhibiting TGF-&#x003b2; target <a class="def" href="/books/n/gene/glossary/def-item/gene/">gene</a> output by competing with p300/CBP for SMAD binding and recruiting transcriptional repressor proteins, such as mSin3A and HDAC1.</p><p>The SKI oncogene is present in all cells, and is commonly active during development. It has a 728 amino-acid sequence with multiple domains and is expressed both inside and outside the cell. The different domains have different functions, including interaction with SMAD proteins.</p><p><b>Mechanism of disease causation.</b> Cultured dermal fibroblasts from individuals with molecularly confirmed SGS showed enhanced activation of TGF-&#x003b2; signaling cascades and higher expression of TGF-&#x003b2;-responsive genes relative to control cells. <a class="bk_pop" href="#sgs.REF.doyle.2012.1249">Doyle et al [2012]</a> concluded that increased TBF-&#x003b2; signaling is the mechanism underlying SGS.</p><p>TGF-&#x003b2; signaling is crucial to normal development and maintenance of various organs, including the vasculature. <i>SKI</i> exerts a negative regulatory effect on TGF-&#x003b2; signaling by interacting with other cellular partners, such as SMAD proteins and transcriptional co-regulators. All pathogenic variants of <i>SKI</i> are located in <a class="def" href="/books/n/gene/glossary/def-item/exon/">exon</a> 1 and cluster into two domains: the R-SMAD binding <a class="def" href="/books/n/gene/glossary/def-item/domain/">domain</a> and daschund homology domain (DHD). Zebrafish studies indicate that SKI plays crucial roles in aortic morphogenesis and homeostasis, and that aortic aneurysm formation in individujals with SGS is a result of increased TGF-&#x003b2; signaling, similar to aortopathies in <a href="/books/n/gene/marfan/">Marfan syndrome</a> and <a href="/books/n/gene/loeys-dietz/">Loeys-Dietz syndrome</a> [<a class="bk_pop" href="#sgs.REF.takeda.2018.2125">Takeda et al 2018</a>].
