Novel Unreported Variants in Alstrom Syndrome 1 Gene Causing Alstrom Syndrome
Abstract We report a case of Alstrom Syndrome (ALMS) due to mutation in ALMS1 and EYS gene caused by an unreported variant. The case revealed a heterozygous variant c.3298del on exon8 and c.11250del on exon16 of the ALMS1 gene. It is a rare syndrome that has a variable presentation, and discovering new variants can help in better ...

Derivation of cochlear cells from pathological or isogenic human iPSCs for modeling hereditary hearing loss [PDF]
Alström Syndrome (AS) is a human autosomal recessive genetic disorder characterized by numerous clinical symptoms including deafness. AS is caused by mutations in the ALMS1 gene encoding for ALMS1 protein expressed at the basal body and implicated in ...

Cep70 and Cep131 contribute to ciliogenesis in zebrafish embryos. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The centrosome is the cell's microtubule organising centre, an organelle with important roles in cell division, migration and polarity. However, cells can divide and flies can, for a large part of development, develop without them.

Recent research has ignited a renewed interest in Ceratozamia cycads, unveiling their remarkable diversity. While previous studies primarily focused on morphology, this investigation employs a multidisciplinary approach, integrating phylogenetics, morphology, and ecological niches. Our methods identify seven distinct lineages as separate species.

Liver fat in adults with GH deficiency: comparison to matched controls and the effect of GH replacement [PDF]
CONTEXT: Existing data regarding the association between growth hormone deficiency (GHD) and liver fat content are conflicting. OBJECTIVE: We aimed i) to assess intrahepatocellular lipid (IHCL) content in hypopituitary adults with GHD compared to matched
