Heterozygous germline TET2 loss‐of‐function variants associated with an ALPS‐like phenotype

open access: yesBritish Journal of Haematology, Volume 206, Issue 5, Page 1330-1334, May 2025.
Summary Germline homozygous loss‐of‐function mutations in TET2 result in significant childhood immunodeficiency that resembles autoimmune lymphoproliferative syndrome and predisposes one to lymphoma. The implications of heterozygous variants are less well understood.

High‐throughput screening identifies bazedoxifene as a potential therapeutic for dysferlin‐deficient limb girdle muscular dystrophy

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Limb‐girdle muscular dystrophy R2 (LGMD R2) is a rare genetic disorder characterised by progressive weakness and wasting of proximal muscles. LGMD R2 is caused by the loss of function of dysferlin, a transmembrane protein crucial for plasma membrane repair in skeletal muscles.

Ketotic Hypoglycaemia Following Sleeve Gastrectomy

open access: yesClinical Endocrinology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Post‐bariatric surgery hypoglycaemia is typically mediated by hyperinsulinaemia, although the exact mechanisms are incompletely understood. Two cases of non‐insulin mediated, ketotic hypoglycaemia following sleeve gastrectomy are presented. After fasting for 40 and 65 h, respectively, both patients developed symptomatic hypoglycaemia, with ...

Infantile Cerebellar‐Retinal Degeneration Associated With Novel ACO2 Variants: Clinical Features and Insights From a Drosophila Model

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Our Translational Loop integrates patient genetic data with Drosophila models to study disease mechanisms. We identified ACO2 variants in a patient linked to ICRD and show that our animal model mirrors key aspects of the disease. These insights help pinpoint therapeutic targets, advancing research toward treatments for rare genetic disorders.

Testis‐Specific PDHA2 Is Required for Proper Meiotic Recombination and Chromosome Organisation During Spermatogenesis

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
PDHA2, a testis‐specific subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase, is required for the conversion of pyruvate to acetyl‐CoA. Its absence results in decreased acetyl‐CoA and precursors for metabolites and energy during spermatogenesis. This results in decreased histone acetylation, defective chromosome structure and moderately reduced crossovers, ultimately ...

Overcome Alkaptonuria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Alkaptonuria (AKU) is an autosomal recessive inborn error metabolism resulting from deficiency of homogentisic acid oxidase (homogentisate 1, 2-dioxygenase) that is required in the metabolism of phenylalanine and tyrosine during the step when ...
