[Alstrom syndrome: clinical and genetic features, and a diagnostic guide to foresee complications.] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Alstrom syndrome is a progressive autosomal recessive genetic disorder affecting multiple organ systems. It may be detected at birth or in early childhood. Clinically, patients with Alstrom syndrome develop cone-rod dystrophy

Exploring Contraindicated Medications and Corresponding Targeted Genes for Migraine Through Integrated Genetic Approaches

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, Volume 15, Issue 11, November 2025.
To systematically identify risk medications for migraine and its subtypes, we integrated GWAS data for 23 medications with GWASs of migraine and its subtypes to conduct causal inference. We then combined plasma eQTLs with drug‐target databases to map putative targets of the risk medications and validated causal relationships using colocalization and ...

Whole-exome sequencing identifies two novel ALMS1 mutations in Indian patients with Leber congenital amaurosis

open access: yesHuman Genome Variation, 2021
Leber congenital amaurosis (LCA) is a severe autosomal recessive retinal degenerative disease. The current study describes exome sequencing results for two unrelated Indian LCA patients carrying novel nonsense p.(Glu636*) and frameshift p.(Pro2281Leufs ...

Integrative taxonomy of the Ceratozamia mexicana Brongn. (Zamiaceae) species complex from a phylogeographic perspective

open access: yesPlant Species Biology, Volume 40, Issue 6, Page 530-546, November 2025.
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.

Homozygosity mapping at Alstrom syndrome to chromosome 2p. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Alstrom syndrome is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by pigmentary retinal degeneration, sensorineural hearing loss, childhood obesity, non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, hyperlipidemia and chronic nephropathy.

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

open access: yesClinical 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.

Alms1-disrupted mice recapitulate human Alstrom syndrome. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Mutations in the human ALMS1 gene cause Alstrom syndrome (AS), a progressive disease characterized by neurosensory deficits and by metabolic defects including childhood obesity, hyperinsulinemia and Type 2 diabetes.

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)
