Clinical utility and genetic landscape of exome sequencing in a large pediatric epilepsy cohort: Insights from a Turkish tertiary care center

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective To evaluate the diagnostic utility and genetic spectrum of next‐generation sequencing (NGS) in a large, well‐phenotyped cohort of Turkish pediatric patients with epilepsy of unknown etiology. Methods Between January 2021 and December 2024, 250 children (115 female, 135 male) with unexplained epilepsy underwent either whole‐exome ...

Evaluation of pathogenicity of WT1 intron variants by in vitro splicing analysis

Clinical and Experimental Nephrology
Abstract Background Wilms tumor 1 (WT1; NM_024426) causes Denys–Drash syndrome, Frasier syndrome, or isolated focal segmental glomerulosclerosis. Several WT1 intron variants are pathogenic; however, the pathogenicity of some variants remains undefined.

Whole-genome sequencing, as a powerful diagnostic tool in hearing loss, reveals novel variants in PTPRQ missed by whole-exome sequencing

BMC Medical Genomics
Background/objectives Hearing loss (HL) is one of the most common congenital disorders, affecting 1-2 in 1,000 newborns. Modern genetic diagnostics using large gene panels and/or whole exome analysis (WES) can identify disease-causing mutations in 25-50 %

Electroclinical phenotypes—genetic characterization of developmental and epileptic encephalopathies in a cohort study

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEEs) are characterized by refractory seizures and frequently recurring epileptic activity with neurodevelopmental delay or regression that usually begin in early life. We aimed to define the relationship between electroclinical features and etiology, as well as the genotype–phenotype ...

Case Report: A Canonical Splice-Site COL4A5 Variant in Alport Syndrome in a Kazakhstani Family

Current Issues in Molecular Biology
Background: Alport syndrome is a hereditary disorder caused by defects in the type IV collagen network. Although exon variants are primarily associated with Alport syndrome, the clinical significance of intronic variants remains incompletely ...

Oligogenic inheritance in epilepsy: A systematic exome‐wide analysis

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Genetic factors contribute to the majority of epilepsies, but the exact genetic cause remains unknown in most patients. Incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity are frequent, and recent studies showed a burden of deleterious variants in epilepsy genes, suggesting a role for oligogenic inheritance.

Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

The genetic architecture of epilepsy across molecular mechanisms and clinical heterogeneity

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Epilepsy comprises a highly heterogeneous group of neurological disorders unified by a persistent predisposition to recurrent seizures, yet driven by remarkably diverse genetic, molecular, and network‐level mechanisms. Advances in genomic technologies have revealed that epilepsy arises from a multilayered genetic architecture encompassing rare

Case Report: A case with Xeroderma pigmentosum type F manifested a mild phenotype due to a deep intronic variant of the ERCC4 gene

Journal of Cutaneous Immunology and Allergy
Xeroderma pigmentosum (XP) is a disorder that causes sun sensitivity, pigmented spots in sun-exposed areas, and neurological symptoms due to an inborn error in the DNA repair process for damage caused by sun exposure. We report a case with XP type F (XPF)
