These disorders are caused by underlying mutations affecting the genetic makeup contained in our cells, and according to experts, half of the variations responsible for these diseases are still unknown. Because of the lack of information on these disorders, physicians are often unable to pinpoint the exact molecular cause of the disease or opt for the most appropriate treatment.
