Combined Long‐Read Genome and Transcriptome Sequencing Establishes Novel Variants in MEGF8 as the Cause for Carpenter Syndrome Type 2

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Carpenter syndrome type 2 (CRPT2) is a rare autosomal recessive disease mainly characterized by craniosynostosis and polysyndactyly. CRPT2 is the rarer subtype of Carpenter syndrome (CRPTS) and is caused by biallelic variants in the multiple epidermal growth factor‐like domains 8 gene (MEGF8).

Polymorphisms of the _ENPP1_ gene are not associated with type 2 diabetes or obesity in the Chinese Han population [PDF]

, 2008
*Objective:* Type 2 Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by chronic hyperglycemia and with a major feature of insulin resistance. Genetic association studies have suggested that _ENPP1_ might play a potential role in susceptibility to ...

Mapping quantitative trait loci underlying body weight changes that act at different times during high‐fat diet challenge in collaborative cross mice

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Over one billion people worldwide suffer from obesity, and the number is continually rising. Animal models, especially mouse models, are crucial to identifying the genetic components of complex disorders and exploring the potential applications of these genetic findings.

Refining Detection of Subclinical Epileptiform Activity in Alzheimer's Disease: A Case–Control Study and Call for a Consensus

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Sleep‐predominant network hyperexcitability is increasingly recognized as a potential disease‐accelerating comorbidity in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, its prevalence and risk‐factors remain debated, largely due to cohort‐specific and methodological differences across studies.

Clinical and Biological Determinants of Longitudinal Cognitive Function in Patients With GBA1 Variants and Subthalamic Deep Brain Stimulation

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Whether cognitive decline in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD) carrying GBA1 variants is accelerated after subthalamic deep brain stimulation (STN‐DBS) remains controversial. Clarifying long‐term cognitive outcomes is essential for informed decision making.

Brain Atrophy Associated With Risk Variant rs10191329 Extends Beyond Multiple Sclerosis

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
The risk allele rs10191329*A is associated with disease severity and brain atrophy in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). We investigated the association of rs10191329 with age‐related brain atrophy in a population‐based cohort using 10,308 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of 4,815 participants aged ≥ 45 years without MS in cross‐sectional and ...

Optimal Haplotype Assembly from High-Throughput Mate-Pair Reads

, 2015
Humans have $23$ pairs of homologous chromosomes. The homologous pairs are almost identical pairs of chromosomes. For the most part, differences in homologous chromosome occur at certain documented positions called single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).

The Clinical Spectrum and Neurodevelopmental Pathogenesis of KPTN‐Related Disorder in a Mouse Model

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Pathogenic variants in Kaptin (KPTN) cause KPTN‐related disorder (KRD). KPTN modulates mTOR signaling activation within the KICSTOR complex in response to cellular amino acid levels. We define the clinical spectrum and investigate the developmental pathogenesis of KRD.

Discovery of Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms in Complex Genomes Using SGSautoSNP

Biology, 2012
Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are becoming the dominant form of molecular marker for genetic and genomic analysis. The advances in second generation DNA sequencing provide opportunities to identify very large numbers of SNPs in a range of ...
