First review of chronic granulomatous disease in Palestine: clinical and genetic characteristics
BackgroundChronic granulomatous disease (CGD) is an inborn error of immunity caused by genetic defects in the nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase complex, resulting in recurrent severe infections and excessive inflammatory responses.

ABSTRACT Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are lysosomal storage disorders characterized by the accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), which can lead to cytoplasmic alterations in leukocytes. The objective of this study was to characterize leukocyte inclusions in patients with different types of MPS and assess their diagnostic relevance.

Expanding the Phenotypic Spectrum of TXNDC15‐Related Ciliopathies to Include Joubert Syndrome
ABSTRACT Biallelic loss‐of‐function variants in TXNDC15 are a known cause of the perinatally lethal ciliopathy Meckel syndrome (MKS). TXNDC15 encodes an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)‐resident thioredoxin‐domain protein required for ciliary transition zone integrity.

Genetic Variants of Na+,K+‐ATPase Associated With Neurological Disorders: A Systematic Review
ABSTRACT Neurological disorders encompass a wide range of severe symptoms and manifestations, many of which are associated with genetic variants that affect ionic homeostasis. Na+,K+‐ATPase, a transmembrane enzyme responsible for maintaining electrochemical gradients in cells, plays a crucial role in neuronal excitability and brain function.

Extending the ATP9A‐Related Phenotypic Spectrum: Indication of Schizophrenia Susceptibility
ABSTRACT ATP9A, which belongs to the P4‐ATPase family of proteins, is involved in the efficient transport of vesicles from the Golgi apparatus to the plasma membrane, as well as the release of extracellular vesicles from human cells. In 2021, a loss‐of‐function variant of this gene was identified as being associated with a recessive neurodevelopmental ...

Isolated (non-syndromic) congenital cataract may be inherited as an autosomal dominant, autosomal recessive, or X-linked recessive trait. Considerable progress has been made in identifying genes and loci for dominantly inherited cataract, but the ...

Chronic granulomatous disease: the European experience. [PDF]
CGD is an immunodeficiency caused by deletions or mutations in genes that encode subunits of the leukocyte NADPH oxidase complex. Normally, assembly of the NADPH oxidase complex in phagosomes of certain phagocytic cells leads to a "respiratory burst ...
