Missense NR2F1 variant in monozygotic twins affected with the Bosch–Boonstra–Schaaf optic atrophy syndrome [PDF]
Background The Bosch‐Boonstra‐Schaaf optic atrophy syndrome (BBSOAS) is an autosomal‐dominant disorder (OMIM615722) mostly characterized by optic atrophy and/or hypoplasia, mild intellectual disability, hypotonia, seizures/infantile epilepsy.

Second Prenatal Diagnosis of Bosch–Boonstra–Schaaf Optic Atrophy Syndrome in a Fetus With a 5q14.3q15 Deletion: A Case Report and Review of the Literature [PDF]
This case demonstrates the value of cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) screening for detecting subchromosomal microdeletions in fetuses with non‐specific prenatal screening abnormalities and no overt structural malformations on ultrasound; CMA and karyotyping ...

NR2F1 regulates regional progenitor dynamics in the mouse neocortex and cortical gyrification in BBSOAS patients [PDF]
The relationships between impaired cortical development and consequent malformations in neurodevelopmental disorders, as well as the genes implicated in these processes, are not fully elucidated to date. In this study, we report six novel cases of patients affected by BBSOAS (Boonstra-Bosch-Schaff optic atrophy syndrome), a newly emerging rare ...

The Natural Course of Bosch‐Boonstra‐Schaaf Optic Atrophy Syndrome [PDF]
Here, we present data on genetic variants and phenotype development of 47 individuals with Bosch‐Boonstra‐Schaaf optic atrophy syndrome, a rare neurodevelopmental disorder, highlighting the fact that the disease does not appear to be fundamentally progressive.

Language and Cognitive Features in a Girl with Bosch–Boonstra–Schaaf Optic Atrophy Syndrome [PDF]
Bosch–Boonstra–Schaaf optic atrophy syndrome (BBSOAS) is an extremely rare neurological condition caused by a disruption in the NR2F-1 gene. The most common clinical features are optic atrophy and intellectual and developmental delay.

The spectrum of communication abilities in children with 12 rare neurodevelopmental disorders: a qualitative study with caregivers. [PDF]
Background Our aim was to update an existing model of communication ability for children with rare neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) by centring caregiver and family perspectives. This project is part of a larger initiative to improve the measurement of communication ability for these children in the context of clinical trials.
