ABSTRACT Objective Monogenic disorders (MDs), often associated with developmental delay, intellectual disability, hypotonia, or dysmorphic facial features, typically go undetected during pregnancy. These disorders are frequently caused by de novo single nucleotide variants (SNVs), which are not currently covered by routine non‐invasive prenatal testing

Interpretative phenomenological analysis and genetic counseling
Abstract The role of qualitative methods in healthcare research has gained acceptance over the last 30 years, and there are now a number of well‐established approaches available offering a diversity of aims, procedures, and epistemological emphases. This paper focuses on one such approach, Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), to provide a ...

FGF2 promotes Msx2 stimulated PC‐1 expression via Frs2/MAPK signaling [PDF]
PC‐1 is an enzymatic generator of pyrophosphate and a critical regulator of tissue mineralization. We previously showed that fibroblast growth factor‐2 (FGF2) specifically induces PC‐1 expression in calvarial pre‐osteoblasts and that this occurs via a ...
