Introduction In congenital aniridia caused by mutations in paired box 6 (PAX6), PAX6 influences the migration and differentiation of limbal epithelial cells (LECs), thereby playing a pivotal role in aniridia-associated keratopathy.

ABSTRACT The 1,4,5‐trisphosphate receptor type 1 (ITPR1) gene encodes an endoplasmic reticulum calcium release channel, in which loss‐of‐function mutations have been associated with spinocerebellar ataxias and related neurological phenotypes. Only one gain‐of‐function mutation in the highly conserved suppressor domain of ITPR1 has been previously ...

Increased functional connectivity in intrinsic neural networks in individuals with aniridia
Mutations affecting the PAX6 gene result in aniridia, a condition characterized by the lack of an iris and other panocular defects. Among humans with aniridia, structural abnormalities also have been reported within the brain.

Bilateral Gonadoblastoma in a 12‐Year‐Old Girl 4 Years After Wilms' Tumor: A Rare Pediatric Case
ABSTRACT This case of a 12‐year‐old patient who developed bilateral gonadoblastoma 4 years after treatment for Wilms tumor highlights the importance of rigorous, risk‐adapted long‐term surveillance and careful evaluation of incidental gonadal findings, even in asymptomatic patients.

A descriptive presentation of a family showing various features of aniridia and its genetic analysis
The abnormal neuroectodermal development due to the PAX 6 gene mutation results in aniridia, a rare disorder. We report herein a family that presented with aniridia, myopia, ptosis, glaucoma, cataract, and sensory nystagmus. This family provides a unique

Detection of a novel PAX6 variant in a Chinese family with multiple ocular abnormalities
Background Aniridia is a congenital, panocular disease that can affect the cornea, anterior chamber angle, iris, lens, retina and optic nerve. PAX6 loss-of-function variants are the most common cause of aniridia, and variants throughout the gene have ...

A Case of Autosomal Dominant Bilateral Familial Aniridia
Aniridia is a familial or sporadic disorder affecting not only the iris but also the cornea, angle structures, lens, optic nerve, and fovea. This disorder may be associated with many other systemic abnormalities such as urogenital malignancies. We report
