Clinical biological and genetic heterogeneity of the inborn errors of pulmonary surfactant metabolism [PDF]
Pulmonary surfactant is a multimolecular complex located at the air-water interface within the alveolus to which a range of physical (surface-active properties) and immune functions has been assigned. This complex consists of a surface-active lipid layer

Glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenase deficiency as a risk factor in proliferative disorder development [PDF]
Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) is an important site of metabolic control in the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) which provides reducing power (NADPH) and pentose phosphates.

A rapid yet reliable chemical diagnosis for dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DHPD) deficiency, and possibly dihydropyrimidinase (DHP) deficiency in cancer patients, prior to therapy with pyrimidine analogues such as 5-fluorouracil, is desired for ...

Short-chain enoyl-CoA hydratase (SCEH or ECHS1) deficiency is a rare inborn error of metabolism caused by biallelic mutations in the gene ECHS1 (OMIM 602292). Clinical presentation includes infantile-onset severe developmental delay, regression, seizures,

Inverse relationship between genetic diversity and epigenetic complexity [PDF]
Early studies of molecular evolution revealed a correlation between genetic distance and time of species divergence. This observation provoked the molecular clock hypothesis and in turn the ‘Neutral Theory’, which however remains an ...

A new direction for farm animal genetic resources [PDF]
In September 2007, the International Technical Conference on Animal Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture was held in Interlaken, Switzerland. Two important documents aiming at preventing the genetic erosion of farm animal biodiversity and promoting

Proximal femoral focal deficiency : a case report [PDF]
Proximal Femoral Focal Deficiency (PFFD) is a rare and complex congenital anomaly (1:50,000-200,000 population) that results in varying degrees of femoral hypoplasia with limb shortening and pelvic abnormalities.
