Decoding the Genetic Puzzle of Inherited Retinal Dystrophies: Novel Insights From a Turkish Cohort

Clinical Genetics, Volume 108, Issue 5, Page 532-552, November 2025.
This study analyzes 94 IRD patients from a Turkish cohort using a 141‐gene NGS panel, achieving a 74% diagnostic yield. The identification of 28 novel variants highlights the genetic diversity of IRDs in Türkiye and underscores the value of population‐specific molecular testing.

Atypical Retinal Phenotype in a Patient With Alström Syndrome and Biallelic Novel Pathogenic Variants in ALMS1, Including a de novo Variation

Frontiers in Genetics, 2020
Alström syndrome (ALMS) is a rare autosomal recessive multi-organ syndrome considered to date as a ciliopathy and caused by variations in ALMS1. Phenotypic variability is well-documented, particularly for the systemic disease manifestations; however ...

Limited Utility of Existing Hearing Loss Panels in the Assessment of Early‐Onset, Bilateral Meniere's Disease

OTO Open, Volume 9, Issue 4, October-December 2025.
Abstract Objective While the etiology of Meniere's disease (MD) is likely multifactorial, genetics are thought to play a role. Several previous studies have yielded inconclusive results, potentially due to phenotypic uncertainty and variable diagnostic criteria.

Genomic knockout of alms1 in zebrafish recapitulates Alström syndrome and provides insight into metabolic phenotypes [PDF]

Human Molecular Genetics, 2018
SCIENTIFIC ABSTRACT Alström syndrome is an autosomal recessive obesity ciliopathy caused by loss-of-function mutations in the ALMS1 gene. In addition to multi-organ dysfunction, such as cardiomyopathy, retinal degeneration, and renal dysfunction, the disorder is characterized by ...

Alternative Splicing Regulation in Metabolic Disorders

Obesity Reviews, Volume 26, Issue 9, September 2025.
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.

Young‐onset type 2 diabetes—Epidemiology, pathophysiology, and management

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, Volume 16, Issue 7, Page 1157-1172, July 2025.
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.
