Expanded Phenotype Associated With an Intronic PPP1R12A Variant: A Case Report and Literature Review
ABSTRACT Autosomal dominant PPP1R12A‐related genitourinary and/or brain malformation syndrome is a recently described multisystem disorder caused by loss‐of‐function variants in the protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 12a (PPP1R12A) gene. To date, 22 affected individuals have been reported with variable brain malformations and genitourinary ...

Atrial Fibrillation and Sinus Node Dysfunction in Human Ankyrin-B Syndrome: A Computational Analysis [PDF]
Ankyrin-B is a multifunctional adapter protein responsible for localization and stabilization of select ion channels, transporters, and signaling molecules in excitable cells including cardiomyocytes. Ankyrin-B dysfunction has been linked with highly penetrant sinoatrial node (SAN) dysfunction and increased susceptibility to atrial fibrillation. While

ANK1 and EPB41 Variants and The Risk of Glucocorticoid‐Induced Osteonecrosis
Objective Steroid‐induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head (SONFH) is a refractory skeletal disorder influenced by genetic and environmental factors. However, conclusive pathogenic genetic evidence remains elusive due to the limited exploration of rare damaging variants. In this study, we aimed to identify rare variants associated with SONFH.

The Bile Acid Membrane Receptor TGR5 in Cancer: Friend or Foe?
The G-protein-coupled bile acid receptor, Gpbar1 or TGR5, is characterized as a membrane receptor specifically activated by bile acids. A series of evidence shows that TGR5 induces protein kinase B (AKT), nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB), extracellular ...

Zebrafish inversin mutants develop scoliosis in the absence of laterality defects
Abstract Background Human mutations in INVERSIN are associated with nephronophthisis, variable penetrance of situs inversus and congenital heart disease. Inversin has been shown to localize to cilia and many of the patient phenotypes are attributed to disrupted cilia function.

Identification of ANKDD1B variants in an ankylosing spondylitis pedigree and a sporadic patient
Background Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a debilitating autoimmune disease affecting tens of millions of people in the world. The genetics of AS is unclear. Analysis of rare AS pedigrees might facilitate our understanding of AS pathogenesis.

Abstract Heterozygous loss‐of‐function variants in the gene SCN1A, which encodes the voltage‐gated sodium channel (VGSC) pore‐forming (α) subunit NaV1.1, lead to a spectrum of neurological disease, including Dravet syndrome. NaV1.1 is prominently expressed at the proximal portion of the axon initial segment (AIS) of fast‐spiking γ‐aminobutyric ...
