Heterozygous Variants in LRP1 Cause a Neurodevelopmental Disorder With Congenital Heart Defects

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT LRP1 encodes the low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor‐related protein 1 (LRP1), a transmembrane protein involved in endocytosis and activation of multiple signaling pathways. LRP1 variants have been implicated in the pathogenesis of congenital heart defects (CHD), Alzheimer's disease, and neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD).

Aortic valve disease: Novel animal models for advancing our understanding of the underlying mechanisms

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Due to the complex pathophysiology of aortic valve disease (AVD) and the resulting lack of effective pharmacotherapy, existing animal models are valuable research tools, but each has its own strengths and limitations. This review systematically surveys the major AVD models, compares their induction methods, pathological features, advantages and ...

Lung Ultrasound for the Detection of Radiologic Progression of Interstitial Lung Abnormalities in Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is an important extra‐articular manifestation of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) associated with high mortality and morbidity. Lung ultrasonography (LUS) has recently emerged as a possible screening tool. We assessed the role of LUS in monitoring radiologic progression and the development of new interstitial lung ...
