A Case of Multiple Mitochondrial Dysfunctions Syndrome 1 and Review of the Literature

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multiple mitochondrial dysfunctions syndrome 1 (MMDS1, MIM #605711) due to NFU1 gene defects is an ultra‐rare autosomal recessive inborn error of metabolism associated with reduced function of NFU1 iron–sulfur cluster (ISC) scaffold protein.

Heterozygous Variants in LRP1 Cause a Neurodevelopmental Disorder With Congenital Heart Defects

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT LRP1 encodes the low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor‐related protein 1 (LRP1), a transmembrane protein involved in endocytosis and activation of multiple signaling pathways. LRP1 variants have been implicated in the pathogenesis of congenital heart defects (CHD), Alzheimer's disease, and neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD).

Paternal-age-related de novo mutations and risk for five disorders

Nature Communications, 2019
Advanced paternal age associates with increased risk for psychiatric and developmental disorders in offspring. Here, Taylor et al. utilize parent-child trio exome sequencing data sets to estimate the contribution of paternal age-related de novo mutations

Impact of increased paternal age on neonatal outcomes in very-low-birth-weight infants

The Journal of Maternal-Fetal & Neonatal Medicine, 2023
Objective Despite the trend of increasing paternal age, its impact on neonatal outcomes, particularly in preterm infants, has not been thoroughly investigated.

High Diagnosis Rate for Nonimmune Hydrops Fetalis With Prenatal Clinical Genome: Expanded Results From the Hydrops‐Yielding Diagnostic Results of Prenatal Sequencing (HYDROPS) Study

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nonimmune hydrops fetalis (NIHF) is characterized by abnormal fluid accumulation in ≥ 2 fetal compartments and may be genetic. The incremental diagnostic yield of prenatal exome sequencing (ES) for NIHF following a negative standard workup was previously explored on 22 cases.

The effect of paternal age on offspring intelligence and personality when controlling for paternal trait level.

PLoS ONE, 2014
Paternal age at conception has been found to predict the number of new genetic mutations. We examined the effect of father's age at birth on offspring intelligence, head circumference and personality traits.

Paternal age and risk of autism in an ethnically diverse, non-industrialized setting: Aruba. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to examine paternal age in relation to risk of autism spectrum disorders (ASDs) in a setting other than the industrialized west. DESIGN: A case-control study of Aruban-born children (1990-2003).

An Adult Presentation of KIF11‐Related MCLID Syndrome: Case Report and 40‐Year Follow‐Up

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pathogenic variants in KIF11 are linked to autosomal dominant syndromes with microcephaly, chorioretinopathy, lymphedema, and intellectual disability (MCLID), though adult presentations remain underreported. We report a 42‐year‐old female presenting with a de novo single‐amino acid in‐frame deletion in the KIF11 gene (c.1294_1296del; p ...

Advancing paternal age is associated with deficits in social and exploratory behaviors in the offspring: a mouse model. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND: Accumulating evidence from epidemiological research has demonstrated an association between advanced paternal age and risk for several psychiatric disorders including autism, schizophrenia and early-onset bipolar disorder.

Influence of Molecular Genetic Classes on Behavior in Prader‐Willi Syndrome

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A wide range of behavioral phenotypes has been described in PWS patients including autism spectrum disorder (ASD). The prevalence of behavioral disorders was studied in 292 participants over 3 years with genetically confirmed PWS (N = 164 females and N = 128 males) with deletion (N = 182) and mUPD (maternal uniparental disomy) (N = 99).
