Mental Health Stigma in Psychiatric Genetics: Insights and Recommendations From the ISPG Member Survey on Stigma

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Little is known about how stigma is perceived within psychiatric genetics, a field increasingly central to public discussions about heredity, neurodiversity, and psychiatric risk. Understanding how stigma is perceived and experienced by psychiatric geneticists is important for guiding responsible communication and future stigma‐reduction ...

One‐step generation of heritable mitochondrial DNA multiplex‐engineered rats using DddA‐derived cytosine base editor

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We established that mixed DdCBE microinjection is an efficient, heritable, and precise strategy for generating multiplex mtDNA mutant rats. This advancement significantly expands the utility of DdCBEs for mitochondrial disease modeling, providing a robust platform for exploring the pathogenic mechanisms of complex mtDNA mutations and developing ...

Using Synthetic Glycans to Investigate Anti‐Glycan Antibodies and Explore Their Medical Potential

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Anti‐glycan antibodies are essential in health and disease. Access to novel glycan structures paves the way for progress in antibody profiling for biomarker discovery, antibody development, and vaccine design. We summarize the strategies to synthesize and utilize synthetic glycans for the development and application of anti‐glycan antibodies in basic ...

Expression of mutant TIE2 p.L914F during mouse development causes embryonic lethality and defects in vascular remodeling

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Sporadic venous malformation (VM) is associated with the hyperactivating p.L914F mutation in TIE2, a receptor tyrosine kinase essential for vascular development. This mutation is not found in hereditary VM, suggesting incompatibility with life when expressed during early vascular development.

Brain mosaicism of hedgehog signalling and other cilia genes in hypothalamic hamartoma

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2023
Hypothalamic hamartoma (HH) is a rare benign developmental brain lesion commonly associated with a well characterized epilepsy phenotype. Most individuals with HH are non-syndromic without additional developmental anomalies nor a family history of ...

The role of Rho GTPases in facial morphogenesis

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
The role of small GTPases, RHOA, RAC1, and CDC42 and pathway mediators is reviewed in the context of embryonic facial development. Lip fusion requires cytoskeletal remodeling during morphogenesis of the facial processes and during lip fusion. Fnm, frontonasal mass; lnp, lateral nasal process; mnp, medial nasal process; mxp, maxillary process; np, nasal

De novo mutations, genetic mosaicism and human disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Mosaicism—the existence of genetically distinct populations of cells in a particular organism—is an important cause of genetic disease. Mosaicism can appear as de novo DNA mutations, epigenetic alterations of DNA, and chromosomal abnormalities ...

Somatic and germline mosaicism in sporadic early-onset Alzheimer's disease [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2004
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the commonest neurodegenerative disease worldwide. Rare familial cases may be caused by mutations in one of three genes-amyloid precursor protein, presenilin-1 and presenilin-2; however, the molecular basis of >99% of AD cases is unknown.

Genetic testing among patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery

open access: yesEpileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic testing performed to identify the underlying etiology of epilepsy has become increasingly common and is now being recommended as part of the presurgical evaluation for epilepsy surgery. This study aimed to characterize the types of genetic tests performed in patients evaluated for epilepsy surgery and assess how genetic ...

High incidence of Y‐chromosome mosaicism in male and female individuals with mild malformation of cortical development with oligodendroglial hyperplasia in epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Mild malformation of cortical development with oligodendroglial hyperplasia in epilepsy (MOGHE) is an underrecognized pediatric cortical lesion associated with somatic X‐linked SLC35A2 variants in approximately 50% of individuals. The genetic etiology in individuals without detectable SLC35A2 mutations remains undefined, which limits
