HPDL Variant Type Correlates With Clinical Disease Onset and Severity
ABSTRACT Objective Recently, a mitochondrial encephalopathy due to biallelic HPDL variants was described, associated with a broad range of clinical manifestations ranging from severe, infantile‐onset neurodegeneration to adolescence‐onset hereditary spastic paraplegia. HPDL converts 4‐hydroxyphenylpyruvate acid (4‐HPPA) into 4‐hydroxymandelate (4‐HMA),

Clinical Trial Readiness in Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy R1 (LGMDR1): A GRASP Consortium Study
ABSTRACT Objective Identifying functional measures that are both valid and reliable in the limb girdle muscular dystrophy (LGMD) population is critical for quantifying the level of functional impairment related to disease progression in order to establish clinical trial readiness in the context of anticipated therapeutic trials.

Compound Heterozygous MRPS14 Variants Associated With Leigh Syndrome
ABSTRACT MRPS14 (uS14m) is a nuclear‐encoded ribosomal protein important for mitochondria‐specific translation. To date, only a single individual with a recessive MRPS14‐related disorder (also known as COXPD38) has been reported. We report an additional subject possessing novel compound heterozygous MRPS14 variants (p.Asp37Asn, p.Asn60Asp). The subject

Translating Muscle RNAseq Into the Clinic for the Diagnosis of Muscle Diseases
ABSTRACT Objective Approximately half of patients with hereditary myopathies remain without a definitive genetic diagnosis after DNA next‐generation sequencing (NGS). Here, we implemented transcriptome analysis of muscle biopsies as a complementary diagnostic tool for patients with muscle disease but no definitive genetic diagnosis after exome ...

The CRL7FBXW8 Complex Controls the Mammary Stem Cell Compartment through Regulation of NUMB Levels
In breast cancer (BC), NUMB loss of function (LOF) is common and mainly driven by protein hyper‐degradation. The CRL7FBXW8 complex is the E3 ligase responsible for NUMB degradation. Inhibition of CRL7FBXW8 in NUMB‐LOF BC cells restores NUMB levels, and decreases the number of cancer stem cells and tumorigenic ability in vivo. Targeting CRL7FBXW8 offers
