124I‐labelled BMSC‐Derived Extracellular Vesicles Deliver CRISPR/Cas9 Ribonucleoproteins With a GFP‐Reporter System to Inhibit Osteosarcoma Proliferation and Metastasis [PDF]
Metastasis constitutes the principal factor leading to the unfavourable prognosis of osteosarcoma patients. Hypoxia, as the inherent microenvironment of osteosarcoma, can upregulate HIF‐1α via multiple pathways, thereby facilitating osteosarcoma ...

A common variant near the KCNJ2 gene is associated with T-peak to T-end interval. [PDF]
T-peak to T-end (TPE) interval on the electrocardiogram is a measure of myocardial dispersion of repolarization and is associated with an increased risk of ventricular arrhythmias. The genetic factors affecting the TPE interval are largely unknown.To identify common genetic variants that affect the duration of the TPE interval in the general population.

Clinical features and advances in the genetics of periodic paralysis [PDF]
Periodic paralysis (PP) is a group of ion channel diseases with incomplete autosomal dominant inheritance, except in sporadic patients. Ion channel gene mutations cause transient abnormalities in skeletal muscle excitability and muscle weakness ...

Atypical presentation of Andersen-Tawil syndrome: heart failure with reduced ejection without periodic paralysis or dysmorphic features [PDF]
Background: Andersen-Tawil syndrome (ATS) is a rare autosomal dominant disorder caused by variants in the KCNJ2 gene. It is associated with periodic paralysis, dysmorphic features and cardiac arrhythmias.

The aim of this work was to determine the frequency of a base substitution (C-->T) identified in the Kir2.1 gene (approved gene symbol: KCNJ2; OMIM number: 600681). Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) of the area of the Kir2.1 gene containing this substitution was performed on 52 genomic DNA samples.
