Background Alport syndrome involves chronic progressive kidney failure and extrarenal organ damage caused by COL4A3, COL4A4, and COL4A5 mutations. Methods We initially discerned a COL4A3 splicing mutation via next‐generation sequencing.

Resident myonuclei are the molecular “control centers” for large multinuclear muscle fibers. It is presumed that, with aging, these control centers become compromised and contribute to delayed or blunted muscle adaptive potential. This study is a detailed roadmap that exposes how young versus aged myonuclei respond to a hypertrophic loading stimulus ...

Targeted exome sequencing for molecular diagnosis of pediatric Alport syndrome in Southwest China
BackgroundAlport syndrome (AS) is an inherited disorder affecting basement membrane collagen IV. AS is characterized by hematuria and progressive renal failure, accompanied by high-frequency sensorineural deafness and ocular changes.

Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

Background Alport syndrome (AS) is an inherited progressive renal disease caused by mutations in COL4A3, COL4A4, and COL4A5 genes. The large sizes of these genes and the absence of mutation hot spots have complicated mutational analysis by routine PCR ...

Generation cycles in experimental populations of a multivoltine insect
Although theory suggests various mechanisms by which environmental and ecological factors may drive generational fluctuations, our field‐cage experiment is the first to demonstrate how internal dynamics and external disturbances jointly produce synchronised, large‐scale outbreak cycles.

Large mammal recovery in the wake of human population decline
Human depopulation, particularly in rural areas, has contributed to the recovery of some large mammal populations. While recovery is generally good news for conservation, it can also lead to human‐wildlife conflict. We present several avenues to maximize coexistence in the face of further rural depopulation in other places. Read the free Plain Language

Alport syndrome: Expanding diagnosis and treatment
Alport syndrome (AS) is the second common monogenic cause of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) worldwide and is caused by defective type 4 collagen due to pathogenic variants of COL4A3, COL4A4, or COL4A5.
