Genetic and Phenotypic Features of the Five Known Polyaminopathies: A Critical Narrative Review
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, Volume 200, Issue 5, Page 993-1003, May 2026.ABSTRACT Polyaminopathies are a recently described family of rare genetic neurodevelopmental disorders. Polyaminopathies disrupt the biosynthesis of the primary polyamines: putrescine, spermidine, and spermine. Snyder–Robinson syndrome results from hemizygous loss‐of‐function variants in the spermine synthase (SMS) gene, resulting in decreased or ...

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Volume 78, Issue 2, Page 449-462, February 2026.Objective Gout caused by the formation of monosodium urate (MSU) crystals and calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) deposition disease are two major types of microcrystalline pathologies in adults. They are responsible for recurrent flares that rely on interleukin (IL) 1β via activation of the NLRP3 inflammasome.

Molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying gyrate atrophy: Why is the retina primarily affected?
Acta Ophthalmologica, Volume 103, Issue 7, Page e436-e455, November 2025.Abstract Gyrate atrophy of the choroid and retina (GACR; OMIM #258870) is a rare early‐onset autosomal recessive disorder, caused by bi‐allelic pathogenic variants in the gene coding for ornithine aminotransferase (OAT) resulting in hyperornithinaemia.

Cancer Science, Volume 116, Issue 11, Page 3079-3089, November 2025.Our findings delineate a novel regulatory network that integrates metabolic and GSCs self‐renewal in GBM. By integrating genetic ODC ablation with multiomic profiling, we redefine polyamine metabolism as a linchpin of GSCs self‐renewal, a dependency exploitable through precision gene editing.

Integrating Metabolic Modulation and Nanomedicine for Cancer Immunotherapy
Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 40, October 27, 2025.Metabolic rewiring in cancer is mapped across glucose, amino acid, lipid, nucleotide, and mitochondrial pathways, with emphasis on immune regulation. The review integrates mechanisms linking these pathways to tumor progression and therapy resistance, and profiles nanomaterial platforms that both deliver therapeutics and actively reprogram ...
