Compound heterozygosity for two variants in BMP5 in human skeletal dysostosis with atrioventricular septal defect. [PDF]
We report a patient with biallelic loss of function variants in BMP5 and a syndromic phenotype including ischio‐pubic‐patellar dysostosis, dysmorphism, hypermobility, laryngo‐tracheo‐bronchomalacia, and atrioventricular septal defect. Our findings suggest a new association between BMP5 variants and a range of developmental anomalies, thereby increasing

Altered mRNA Splicing, Chondrocyte Gene Expression and Abnormal Skeletal Development due to SF3B4 Mutations in Rodriguez Acrofacial Dysostosis. [PDF]
The acrofacial dysostoses (AFD) are a genetically heterogeneous group of inherited disorders with craniofacial and limb abnormalities. Rodriguez syndrome is a severe, usually perinatal lethal AFD, characterized by severe retrognathia, oligodactyly and ...

Development of an interdisciplinary microtia‐atresia care model: A single‐center 20‐year experience
The care of patients with microtia and aural atresia is significantly fragmented across the nation. In this paper, we analyze the clinical characteristics and management of microtia‐atresia patients at our center over a 20‐year period, describe our current interdisciplinary patient‐care model and propose recommendations for the advancement of microtia ...

Clinical Spectrum of Hereditary Hypophosphatemic Rickets With Hypercalciuria (HHRH)
Half and 5 of 8 heterozygous SLC34A3 carriers had osteoporosis and a history of fractures, respectively. Individuals with detected nephrocalcinosis had significantly increased 1,25‐OH2‐D3 levels and urinary calcium excretion but normal phosphate reabsorption rates.

Phenotyping and genetic analyses in 169 probands referred for primary microcephaly produced a molecular diagnosis in 38, with ASPM and WDR62 most prevalent in non‐consanguineous patients, and a total diagnostics rate of 67% in consanguineous patients. Our series includes 11 novel pathogenic variants and reveals epilepsy as a more frequent feature than ...

BMPR1B gene in brachydactyly type 2–A family with de novo R486W mutation and a disease phenotype
In this study, we have identified a family with two members affected by brachydactyly type A2 caused by BMPR1B mutation. Abstract Background Brachydactylies are a group of inherited conditions, characterized mainly by the presence of shortened fingers and toes. Based on the patients’ phenotypes, brachydactylies have been subdivided into 10 subtypes. In

ABSTRACT Reduced bone mineral density (BMD; ie, Z‐score ≤−2.0) occurring at a young age (ie, premenopausal women and men <50 years) in the absence of secondary osteoporosis is considered early‐onset osteoporosis (EOOP). Mutations affecting the WNT signaling pathway are of special interest because of their key role in bone mass regulation.
