Engineering Immune Cell to Counteract Aging and Aging‐Associated Diseases
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This review highlights a paradigm shift in which advanced immune cell therapies, initially developed for cancer, are now being harnessed to combat aging. By engineering immune cells to selectively clear senescent cells and remodel pro‐inflammatory tissue microenvironments, these strategies offer a novel and powerful approach to delay age‐related ...

The panorama of familial hypercholesterolemia in Latin America: a systematic review[S]
Journal of Lipid Research, 2016 The burden caused by familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) varies among countries and ethnic groups. The prevalence and characteristics of FH in Latin American (LA) countries is largely unknown. We present a systematic review (following the PRISMA statement)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Cholesterol is revealed as a multitasking fuel for lung adenocarcinoma brain metastasis: it locks EGFR at the membrane to sustain AKT/NF‐κB–driven glycolysis and EMT, loosens the blood–brain barrier by promoting Claudin‐5 loss, and rewires microglia through IL‐4R lipid‐raft–JAK1/STAT6 signaling.

Thiol/Disulfide Balance in Patients with Familial Hypercholesterolemia
Cardiology Research and Practice, 2018 Objective. Herein, we investigated the balance of thiol/disulfide, with the hypothesis that the balance between disulfides and thiols, which are natural antioxidants, might be disrupted in patients with familial hypercholesterolemia, which eventually ...

Growth Standards for Children With Smith–Magenis Syndrome (SMS)
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Smith–Magenis syndrome (SMS, OMIM 182290) is a complex syndromic diagnosis marked by neurobehavioral differences and distinct facial dysmorphisms, caused by haploinsufficiency of the retinoic acid‐1 (RAI1) gene either by a pathogenic sequence variant or deletion at chromosome 17p11.2 involving a portion or all of this gene.

Xanthoma tuberosum in homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia
Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2014 Familial homozygous hypercholesterolemia is one of the high risk factors that can result in premature coronary arterial disease leading to severe morbidity and premature death in children and young adults. We describe a rare example of extensive xanthoma

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT SHOX gene haploinsufficiency is associated with Léri‐Weill dyschondrosteosis (LWD) or idiopathic short stature (ISS) and could be caused by the structural and point mutations in the coding region and by the deletions in SHOX gene regulatory sequences. The role of the duplications in regulatory sequences is ambivalent.

Multimorbidity and animal models
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.Multimorbidity, defined as the coexistence of ≥2 chronic conditions, is associated with aging, genetics, and environmental factors. Animal models in multimorbidity research span three tiers: simple organisms for initial screening → rodents for mechanistic analysis → large mammals for clinical prediction.
