Mouse models of ciliopathies: the state of the art

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2012
The ciliopathies are an apparently disparate group of human diseases that all result from defects in the formation and/or function of cilia. They include disorders such as Meckel-Grüber syndrome (MKS), Joubert syndrome (JBTS), Bardet-Biedl syndrome (BBS)

Location, location, location: the evolutionary history of CD1 genes and the NKR-P1/ligand systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
CD1 genes encode cell surface molecules that present lipid antigens to various kinds of T lymphocytes of the immune system. The structures of CD1 genes and molecules are like the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I system, the loading of ...

Identification of Variants in Four Families With Inherited Eye Disorders by Whole Exome Sequencing

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2025.
Our study identified mutations in genes in families associated with different eye disorders. We also explored the effect of a novel variant identified in the ALMS1 gene by using patient‐specific cells. Finally, previously published data was compiled to establish the genotype–phenotype relation.

Genetics of Growth Disorders-Which Patients Require Genetic Testing? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The second 360° European Meeting on Growth Hormone Disorders, held in Barcelona, Spain, in June 2017, included a session entitled Pragmatism vs. Curiosity in Genetic Diagnosis of Growth Disorders, which examined current concepts of genetics and growth in

Alternative Splicing Regulation in Metabolic Disorders

open access: yesObesity 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.

Environmental proxies of antigen exposure explain variation in immune investment better than indices of pace of life. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Investment in immune defences is predicted to covary with a variety of ecologically and evolutionarily relevant axes, with pace of life and environmental antigen exposure being two examples.

Rare Case of Laurence–Moon–Bardet–Biedl Syndrome With Pulmonary Hypertension: A Case Report

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 8, August 2025.
ABSTRACT Laurence‐Moon‐Bardet‐Biedl Syndrome is a complicated polygenic disorder that can have lethal manifestations such as pulmonary hypertension. Early recognition, comprehensive medical treatment, and psychological intervention for the family are crucial, but survival is usually short in those with a poor functional status and increasingly impaired

Generation of an induced pluripotent stem cell line from an Alström Syndrome patient with ALMS1 mutation (c.3902C > A, c.6436C > T) and a gene correction isogenic iPSC line

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2020
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 >

Improving the diagnosis of hyperphagia in melanocortin‐4 receptor pathway diseases

open access: yesObesity, Volume 33, Issue 7, Page 1217-1231, July 2025.
Abstract Characteristics of hyperphagia include heightened and prolonged hunger, longer time to satiation, shorter duration of satiety, severe preoccupation with food (i.e., hyperphagic drive), abnormal food‐seeking behaviors, and distress or functional impairment when food is unavailable.
