Secretopathies emerge as a new class of neurocristopathies

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are a transient embryonic population of cells that give rise to a wide range of structures, including craniofacial cartilage and bone, peripheral neurons and glia, as well as components of the cardiac outflow tract, among others.

MIT/TFE family transcription factors, Mitf and Tfec, redundantly promote pigment cell differentiation and retinal epithelium pigmentation in teleosts

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Transcription factors of the MIT/TFE family—mitfa, mitfb, and tfec—play essential roles in specifying pigment cells derived from neural crest cells in vertebrates. In teleosts, which possess multiple pigment cell types, these factors exhibit partially redundant but largely distinct functions across different pigment lineages.

Antisense Oligonucleotide-Mediated Removal of the Polyglutamine Repeat in Spinocerebellar Ataxia Type 3 Mice

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2017
Spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) is a currently incurable neurodegenerative disorder caused by a CAG triplet expansion in exon 10 of the ATXN3 gene.

Improving genetic diagnosis of hereditary tumor syndromes: From expanded gene panels to functional genomics

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Genetic tumor risk syndromes (genturis) contribute substantially to the overall cancer burden and provide opportunities for early detection, prevention, and individualized treatment. Yet, many affected individuals remain undiagnosed due to restrictive testing criteria and challenges in variant interpretation.

Long‐Read Pan‐Cancer Transcriptomics Unravel Distinct Alteration Trends Between Gene and Isoform Expression in Tumorigenesis

open access: yesiMetaMed, EarlyView.
Long‐read profiling of 144 tumor‐normal pairs identifies isoform‐level cancer dysregulation independent of gene changes. Our scoring system prioritizes isoform‐driven prognostic genes across cancers. ABSTRACT Tumorigenesis involves transcriptomic alterations at both gene and isoform levels.

BRCA1 secondary splice-site mutations drive exon-skipping and PARP inhibitor resistance

open access: yesMolecular Cancer
PARP inhibitor (PARPi) therapy has transformed outcomes for patients with homologous recombination DNA repair (HRR) deficient ovarian cancers, for example those with BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene defects. Unfortunately, PARPi resistance is common.

Repurposing Dantrolene for Long-Term Combination Therapy to Potentiate Antisense-Mediated DMD Exon Skipping in the mdx Mouse

open access: yesMolecular Therapy: Nucleic Acids, 2018
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by mutations in DMD, resulting in loss of dystrophin, which is essential to muscle health. DMD “exon skipping” uses anti-sense oligo-nucleotides (AONs) to force specific exon exclusion during mRNA processing to

Long‐term clinical trajectory of microvillus inclusion disease associated with STXBP2‐related familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis type 5: A case report

open access: yesJournal of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis type 5 is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in STXBP2, which encodes syntaxin‐binding protein, a key regulator of vesicle trafficking. In addition to immune dysregulation, patients with familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis type 5 may present with severe, persistent diarrhea associated ...
