Relative Exchangeable Copper Confirms Wilson Disease and Supports Reclassification of the ATP7B p.Met665Ile Variant With Conflicting Pathogenicity Evidence

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Wilson disease (WD) is an autosomal recessive disorder of copper metabolism caused by ATP7B mutations. Diagnosis is usually straightforward in symptomatic patients, but can be challenging in children and adolescents with mild liver disease, borderline urinary copper excretion, or inconclusive genetic findings.

Geriatric psychiatry: is the jury still out on the cognitive effects of homocysteine and one-carbon metabolism?

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Psychiatry, 2003
Purpose of review: This review considers the evidence for the contribution of hyperhomocysteinemia to cognitive impairment, the dementias and Parkinson's disease, focusing on published literature from April 2002 to April 2003. Recent findings: Homocysteine is a sulphur-containing amino acid that is involved in cycles related to one-carbon metabolism ...

Unveiling a New Link: Cholesterol Deficiency in Smith–Lemli–Opitz and Niemann–Pick C as a Driver of Ciliopathies

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ciliopathies are a group of genetic disorders caused by defective function of either the primary cilia (a large number) or the motile cilia (a much smaller number). These have been defined as diseases with mutations in genes encoding individual ciliary or cilia‐associated proteins.

Are There Causal Associations Between Obsessive‐Compulsive Disorder and Cardiometabolic Phenotypes? A Genetic Correlation and Bi‐Directional Mendelian Randomization Study

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In epidemiological studies, obsessive‐compulsive disorder (OCD) is robustly associated with increased risk of cardiometabolic disorders, including cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, and obesity. However, the mechanisms behind these associations are unclear. We conducted genetic correlation analyses to explore shared genetic etiology and
