Fanconi anemia proteins function in mitophagy and immunity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Fanconi anemia (FA) pathway genes are important tumor suppressors whose best-characterized function is repair of damaged nuclear DNA. Here, we describe an essential role for FA genes in two forms of selective autophagy.

Implementation of an Inherited Diseases Gene Panel to Accelerate Precision Medicine in the South African Public Healthcare System

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
We developed and implemented a 500‐gene panel for phenotype‐driven genetic testing of Mendelian disorders in South Africa's public healthcare system, achieving a 46% diagnostic yield. This platform supports scalable, cost‐effective rare disease diagnosis and lays the foundation for broader genetic services in resource‐limited settings.

Factors Affecting Immune Reconstitution Post‐Allogeneic HSCT in Children: The Case for an Individualized Approach to Vaccination

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Haematology, Volume 116, Issue 4, Page 336-349, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) is increasingly used to treat malignant and non‐malignant diseases. Following allogeneic HSCT, patients are particularly vulnerable to vaccine‐preventable diseases (VPD) because conditioning depletes immune cells, including memory cells.

When R‐Loops Go Awry: Genome Instability and Neurological Diseases

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 8, April 2026.
DNA normally exists as a double helix formed by two complementary strands. During gene transcription, however, one strand of DNA can bind to RNA, causing the other DNA strand to be displaced. This creates a structure called an R‐loop. R‐loops play important roles in normal cellular processes such as gene expression, DNA replication, and transcription ...

Large deletion causing von Hippel-Lindau disease and hereditary breast cancer syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Patients with intragenic mutations of the VHL gene have a typical disease presentation. However in cases of large VHL gene deletions which involve other genes in the proximity of the VHL gene a presentation of the disease can be different. To investigate

Early Cancer Detection: What's Going on and What's Next

open access: yesMedComm, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
Multicancer early detection (MCED) platforms have emerged as a promising strategy for the safe and effective early detection of multiple cancer types, with the potential to reduce metastatic burden and improve clinical outcomes, particularly for aggressive malignancies that lack effective population‐level screening.

A theory for the tissue specificity of BRCA1/2 related and other hereditary cancers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Women who inherit a defective BRCA1 or BRCA2 gene have risks for breast and ovarian cancer that are so high and seem so selective that many mutation carriers choose to have prophylactic surgery. There has been much conjecture to explain such apparently

Oral human papillomavirus is common in individuals with Fanconi anemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Fanconi anemia is a rare genetic disorder resulting in a loss of function of the Fanconi anemia-related DNA repair pathway. Individuals with Fanconi anemia are predisposed to some cancers, including oropharyngeal and gynecologic cancers, with known ...

Genetic risk factor identification for common epilepsies guided by integrative omics data analysis

open access: yesEpilepsia, Volume 67, Issue 3, Page 1406-1420, March 2026.
Abstract Objective Genetic generalized epilepsies (GGEs) comprise the most common genetically determined epilepsy syndromes, following a complex mode of inheritance. Although many important common and rare genetic factors causing or contributing to these epilepsies have been identified in the past decades, many features of the genetic architecture are ...
