Liver Fibrosis and Steatosis in Alström Syndrome: A Genetic Model for Metabolic Syndrome
Alström syndrome (ALMS) is an ultra-rare monogenic disease characterized by insulin resistance, multi-organ fibrosis, obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and hypertriglyceridemia with high and early incidence of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease ...

Abstract Introduction While hyperammonemia is traditionally associated with decompensated cirrhosis, emerging evidence suggests that disturbances in nitrogen homeostasis contribute to disease progression in earlier stages of steatohepatitis and fibrosis.

Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) is caused by mutations in at least 30 genes. Biallelic RD3 loss‐of‐function variants underlie rare LCA12. By whole‐exome sequencing (WES), we identified three apparently unrelated LCA12 patients (P1–3) from Afghanistan.

Table2_Depletion of ALMS1 affects TGF-β signalling pathway and downstream processes such as cell migration and adhesion capacity.xlsx [PDF]
Background:ALMS1 is a ubiquitous gene associated with Alström syndrome (ALMS). The main symptoms of ALMS affect multiple organs and tissues, generating at last, multi-organic fibrosis in the lungs, kidneys and liver.

Colon adenocarcinoma (COAD) is one of the most serious cancers. It is important to accurately predict prognosis and provide individualized treatment. Evidence suggests that clinicopathological features and immune status of the body are related to the occurrence and development of cancer.

Metabolomic Signatures of Prediabetes in Mexican Americans: The Role of Genetics and Macronutrients
We studied how genes and diet influence metabolites in Mexican Americans. We found new genetic links to 17 blood metabolites and discovered 7 interactions between genetic variants and macronutrients like protein and various types of fat. These findings could help personalize strategies for preventing diabetes based on genetic and dietary factors in ...

Detection and localization of ALMS1 protein in HL cells. [PDF]
A) Flow cytometric analysis of ALMS1 expression in HL cell lines. HL cell lines KM-H2 (red lines) and L-428 (green lines) were stained intracellularly with anti-ALMS1 antibodies (solid lines). Cells stained with secondary antibody alone served as control

Whole-Genome Sequencing Identifies Novel Heterozygous Mutation in ALMS1 in Three Men With Both Peyronie's and Dupuytren's Disease [PDF]
Peyronie's Disease (PD) is estimated to occur in up to 13% of males and has been associated with Dupuytren's Disease (DD). We identified 3 men with PD/DD and hypothesized that there may be a genetic association between the 2 diseases.

Six Years of Genetic Diagnosis of Severe Early‐Onset Obesity in a French Cohort
ABSTRACT Objective Obesity is a multifactorial disease with a strong genetic component. It is imperative to enhance the identification of genetic variations in their early and severe manifestations in order to facilitate the development of personalized therapeutic strategies, informed clinical care, and the facilitation of genetic counseling.
