Ex vivo proton spectroscopy (1H‐NMR) analysis of inborn errors of metabolism: Automatic and computer‐assisted analyses

open access: yesNMR in Biomedicine, Volume 36, Issue 4, April 2023., 2023
From the urinary spectrum, 150 metabolites are quantified fully automatically but hundreds of additional metabolites can be identified manually with computer‐assisted proposals for a final diagnosis. A multidisciplinary team decides on further genetic analysis.

ROSAH syndrome mimicking chronic uveitis

open access: yesClinical Genetics, Volume 103, Issue 4, Page 453-458, April 2023., 2023
An autosomal dominant multi‐systemic disorder including Retinal dystrophy, Optic nerve oedema, Splenomegaly, Anhidrosis and migraine Headaches, called ROSAH syndrome, has been related to a unique missense variant in ALPK1 gene. The main morbidity is ophthalmological and most of the patients have been treated for years with immunosuppressive treatments ...

Parkinsonism in Genetic Neurodevelopmental Disorders: A Systematic Review

open access: yesMovement Disorders Clinical Practice, Volume 10, Issue 1, Page 17-31, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Background With advances in clinical genetic testing, associations between genetic neurodevelopmental disorders and parkinsonism are increasingly recognized. In this review, we aimed to provide a comprehensive overview of reports on parkinsonism in genetic neurodevelopmental disorders and summarize findings related to genetic diagnosis ...

Phenotypic diversity, disease progression, and pathogenicity of MVK missense variants in mevalonic aciduria

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 44, Issue 5, Page 1272-1287, September 2021., 2021
Abstract Mevalonic aciduria (MVA) and hyperimmunoglobulinemia D syndrome (MKD/HIDS) are disorders of cholesterol biosynthesis caused by variants in the MVK gene and characterized by increased urinary excretion of mevalonic acid. So far, 30 MVA patients have been reported, suffering from recurrent febrile crises and neurologic impairment.

The systemic autoinflammatory disorders for dermatologists. Part 2: disease examples

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Dermatology, Volume 45, Issue 8, Page 967-973, December 2020., 2020
Summary The systemic autoinflammatory disorders (SAIDS) or periodic fever syndromes are disorders of innate immunity, which can be inherited or acquired. They are almost all very rare and easily overlooked; typically, patients will have seen multiple specialities prior to diagnosis, so a high level of clinical suspicion is key.

A novel homozygous variant in MICOS13/QIL1 causes hepato‐encephalopathy with mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome

open access: yesMolecular Genetics &Genomic Medicine, Volume 8, Issue 10, October 2020., 2020
We performed the whole‐exome sequencing of the hepato‐encephalopathy patient with MTDPS. The functional analyses revealed the clinical significance of the identified variant. Abstract Background Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndrome (MTDPS) is part of a group of mitochondrial diseases characterized by a reduction in mitochondrial DNA copy number.

Hypothesis: determining phenotypic specificity facilitates understanding of pathophysiology in rare genetic disorders

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 43, Issue 4, Page 701-711, July 2020., 2020
Abstract In the rapidly growing group of rare genetic disorders, data scarcity demands an intelligible use of available data, in order to improve understanding of underlying pathophysiology. We hypothesize, based on the principle that clinical similarities may be indicative of shared pathophysiology, that determining phenotypic specificity could ...

Lack of Prenylated Proteins, Autophagy Impairment and Apoptosis in SH-SY5Y Neuronal Cell Model of Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency

open access: yesCellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2017
Background/Aims: Mevalonate Kinase Deficiency (MKD), is a hereditary disease due to mutations in mevalonate kinase gene (MVK). MKD has heterogeneous clinical phenotypes: the correlation between MVK mutations and MKD clinical phenotype is still to be ...

Mevalonic Aciduria in a Child Featuring Hepatic Fibrosis and Novel Mevalonate Kinase Mutations [PDF]

open access: yesThe Open Pediatric Medicine Journal, 2009
Mevalonic aciduria (MVA) is an inborn error of isoprene biosynthesis caused by mevalonate kinase (MVK) gene mutations. Described below is a case of a Palestinian MVA patient suffering from prolonged fevers as well as from hepatic fibrosis - a rare feature of MVA. Also demonstrated is a unique genotype - heterozigosity of two novel MVK mu- tations; V8F (

Hints for Genetic and Clinical Differentiation of Adult‐Onset Monogenic Autoinflammatory Diseases

open access: yesMediators of Inflammation, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Monogenic autoinflammatory diseases (mAIDs) are inherited errors of innate immunity characterized by systemic inflammation recurring with variable frequency and involving the skin, serosal membranes, synovial membranes, joints, the gastrointestinal tube, and/or the central nervous system, with reactive amyloidosis as a potential severe long‐term ...
