Alternative Splicing Regulation in Metabolic Disorders
ABSTRACT Alternative splicing (AS) is a fundamental mechanism for enhancing transcriptome diversity and regulating gene expression, crucial for various cellular processes and the development of complex traits. This review examines the role of AS in metabolic disorders, including obesity, weight loss, dyslipidemias, and metabolic syndrome.

A truncating mutation of Alms1 reduces the number of hypothalamic neuronal cilia in obese mice
AbstractPrimary cilia are ubiquitous cellular antennae whose dysfunction collectively causes various disorders, including vision and hearing impairment, as well as renal, skeletal, and central nervous system anomalies. One ciliopathy, Alström syndrome, is closely related to Bardet–Biedl syndrome (BBS), sharing amongst other phenotypic features morbid ...

Characterisation of infantile cardiomyopathy in Alström Syndrome using ALMS1 Knockout induced pluripotent stem cell derived cardiomyocyte model [PDF]
Alström syndrome (AS) is an inherited rare ciliopathy characterised by multi-organ dysfunction and premature cardiovascular disease. This may manifest as an infantile-onset dilated cardiomyopathy with significant associated mortality.

Centriolar association of ALMS1 and likely centrosomal functions of the ALMS motif-containing proteins C10orf90 and KIAA1731 [PDF]
Mutations in the human gene ALMS1 cause Alström syndrome, a rare progressive condition characterized by neurosensory degeneration and metabolic defects. ALMS1 protein localizes to the centrosome and has been implicated in the assembly and/or maintenance ...

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.

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.

Whole exome sequencing of ALMS1 gene identified a novel pathogenic homozygous mutation (c.3132_3133delAC/p.Gln1045ValfsTer2) in a turkish family [PDF]
Backgroud: Alstrom syndrome (AS) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by pathogenic mutation in ALMS1 (ALMS1 centrosome and basal body associated protein) gene.
