Young‐onset type 2 diabetes—Epidemiology, pathophysiology, and management
The burden of young‐onset type 2 diabetes is increasing globally, disproportionately affecting non‐White ethnic groups and low‐ and middle‐income countries. Young‐onset type 2 is more heterogeneous regarding the genetic and environmental contributions to its underlying pathophysiology, which poses challenges for glycemic management.

To develop a disease model for the human Alström Syndrome (AS), we used the episomal reprogramming system and CRISPR/Cas9 technology to generate an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line with the compound heterozygous patient mutation (ALMS1 c.3902C >

Objective Alström syndrome (ALMS) is a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder that is caused by homozygous or compound heterozygous mutation in the ALMS1 gene. Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is one of the well-recognized features of the syndrome ranging

Evaluation of Genetic Causes of Cardiomyopathy in Childhood [PDF]
Cardiomyopathy frequently has a genetic basis. In adults, mutations in genes encoding components of the sarcomere, cytoskeleton, or desmosome are frequent genetic causes of cardiomyopathy.

Abstract Aims Patients with cardiomyopathies are a heterogeneous group of patients who experience high morbidity and mortality. Early cardiac assessment and intervention with access to genetic counselling in a multidisciplinary Cardiomyopathy Clinic may improve outcomes and prevent progression to advanced heart failure.

ALMS1 deletion in rats causes hyperleptinemia, progressive obesity, and renal damage
Genome‐wide association studies identified single nucleotide polymorphisms in the Alström syndrome 1 (ALMS1) gene linked to chronic kidney disease (CKD). ALMS1 has also been associated to obesity and insulin resistance. Inactivating mutations in the ALMS1 gene cause Alström syndrome in humans, characterized by early onset obesity, insulin resistance ...

Crizotinib induces excessive accumulation of squalene epoxidase (SQLE) by blocking its autophagic degradation. This accumulation disrupts cholesterol and sphingolipid metabolism, leading to hepatic steatosis or hepatocyte apoptosis, respectively. Autophagy activators, such as metformin, or SQLE enzymatic inhibitors, like terbinafine, possesses the ...
