Genotype and clinical phenotype characteristics of MAX germline mutation–associated pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology
ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to investigate the genotypic and clinical phenotypic characteristics of MAX germline mutation–associated pheochromocytoma (PCC) and paraganglioma (PGL).MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the family investigation data ...

Ischemic Postconditioning Protects Aged Myocardium Against Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury by Regulating Mitochondrial Dynamics via piR‐4913

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A tiny RNA tips the scales of cardiac injury in aging. piR‐4913 recruits OGT to Drp1 and drives its O‐GlcNAcylation at Thr604, promoting excessive mitochondrial fission that aggravates ischemia‐reperfusion injury. Ischemic postconditioning silences this pathway to restore mitochondrial balance and protect the aged myocardium, revealing piR‐4913 as a ...

Concurrent Germline RB1 & Mosaic TP53 in a Child With Multiple Childhood Cancers

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We report a patient with a pathogenic germline variant (PGV) in RB1 and somatic mosaicism for a pathogenic TP53 variant who developed three distinct types of childhood cancer: retinoblastoma, osteosarcoma, and myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) before the age of 6 years.

Occurrence of shared mtDNA mutations considered “germline mutations”

open access: yes, 2015
Notes: The tables indicate the percentage of the mutated nucleotide (relative to the rCRS) on point-heteroplasmic positions. Only mutations, which occurred in more than one tissue sample of a patient, were included in these tables.

A Novel Constitutional TUBB Variant Associated With Familial Malformations of Cortical Development

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Most pathogenic tubulin variants arise de novo in sporadic patients, causing severe brain malformations and significant neurodevelopmental impairment. The resulting reproductive disadvantage typically prevents these mutations from being transmitted to offspring.

Susceptibility gene mutations in germline and tumors of patients with HER2-negative advanced breast cancer

open access: yesnpj Breast Cancer
Germline mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 (gBRCA1/2) are required for a PARP inhibitor therapy in patients with HER2-negative (HER2−) advanced breast cancer (aBC).

Mutations in BRCA1, BRCA2, and PALB2, and a panel of 50 cancer-associated genes in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Mutations in genes of the breast cancer susceptibility gene (BRCA) pathway, namely, BRCA1, BRCA2, and PALB2, can provide useful information for the efficacy of platinum-based or poly ADP-ribose polymerase inhibitors chemotherapeutic regimens.

Developing a strain‐dependent susceptibility to hepatocellular carcinoma in a murine model based on histopathological evidence and genetic context

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Using F1 (C57BL/6J/Smad4+/− X CC) mice, we found that partial loss of Smad4 promotes liver carcinogenesis in a strain‐dependent manner, highlighting the importance of genetic modifiers in tumor susceptibility. The use of Collaborative Cross mice provides a valuable platform for uncovering genotype‐specific cancer susceptibilities in preclinical ...

Characteristics of Germline and Somatic Mutations of DNA Repair Genes in Korean Men with Prostate Cancer

open access: yesThe World Journal of Men's Health
Purpose: While the association between defect of DNA damage repair (DDR) genes and prostate cancer (PCa) risk is wellestablished, there has been a lack of data in East Asian population.
