We propose that <em>PRKD1</em> and two genes, <em>ITGB2</em> and <em>JAM2</em>, which are known to be associated with brain calcification, act through a common signaling pathway abnormality. In support of our hypothesis, there are some experimental results that link PRKD1 and JAM2. PRKD1 functions with the integrin ITGB2 as a partner. JAM2, which is associated with brain calcification and is critical for maintaining of the tight junction of the endothelial cells, interacts with integrins including ITGB2.

Approximately 10–12 million Romani people reside in segregated settlements in Europe, and smaller populations live in North America and China. In addition to the endogamy, they also practice consanguinity. This has resulted in a higher frequency of rare autosomal recessive disorders some of which are unique to the Roma population.
