Expanding the Utility of Exome Sequencing in Preventive and Population Genetics
ABSTRACT Carrier screening is a long‐standing genetic testing process offered to at‐risk couples, with or without a family history, who might have pregnancies affected by an autosomal recessive (AR) or X‐linked (XL) disorder. A total of 276 unrelated individuals, initially referred for rare disorder screening by clinicians, were enrolled in this study ...

ABSTRACT Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) has undergone major changes in the last decades. Its prevalence has been steadily increasing and numerous advances have been made in the management of the disease. However, the effect in real‐life setting of these major changes is unknown, particularly in a Canadian environment. Procedure We aimed to assess

This review summarizes the transcription factors, repressive chromatin‐modifying complexes, and epigenetic mechanisms that control fetal hemoglobin repression. Notably, many regulators of γ‐globin silencing also function in transcriptional and epigenetic networks that drive cancer, highlighting opportunities to translate advances in hemoglobinopathy ...

Assessment of Thyroid Hormones and Vitamin D Levels in Patients with Hereditary Hemoglobinopathies
Background: Hemoglobinopathies are ultimately developed many complications with a high of morbidity, secondary to iron overload. Thyroid dysfunction and bone disorders are the most common clinical manifestations.

Nontyphoidal Salmonella Osteomyelitis in Immunocompetent Children Without Hemoglobinopathies
Salmonella osteomyelitis is well-described in children with hemoglobinopathies, particularly infection with Salmonella typhi. To characterize nontyphoidal osteomyelitis in otherwise healthy children without hemoglobinopathies, we performed a ...

Epigenetics in cancer: from mechanisms to precision medicine
Reversible epigenetic programs, including DNA methylation, chromatin modifications, and chromatin architecture, shape dynamic tumor states. Spatial and single‐cell profiling identify tumor plasticity, evolution, and immune evasion, enabling biomarker‐guided precision medicine and rational epigenetic combinations to expose therapeutic vulnerabilities ...
