"[Herein we report cytogenetic and gene studies including a screening for the SIM1 gene deletion, performed on 87 patients with PWS-like phenotype, and describe the fifth case of syndromic obesity with an interstitial deletion of the chromosome segment 6q16-q21 and suggest that mutational analysis and further studies of the parental origin of chromosome alterations of 6q16.2 in patients with and without PWS-like phenotype are needed to evaluate possible imprinting effects of SIM1 gene and establish the contribution that alterations in this gene makes to the etiology of syndromic and non-syndromic obesity.].
