Functional Mapping of Neurodevelopmental Disease Pathways to Key Neurodevelopmental Processes Represented in the Developmental Neurotoxicity In Vitro Testing Battery

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Human‐relevant methods are essential for modern chemical safety assessment. This study helps define the capabilities and boundaries of an in vitro testing battery for developmental neurotoxicity by exploring its biological applicability domain. By linking neurodevelopmental disease‐related pathways to key neurodevelopmental processes, the work enhances

A new insight into the definition of microcephaly in Zika congenital syndrome era

Cadernos de Saúde Pública, 2021
: This study aimed to compare the anthropometric measurements and body proportionalities of neonates born before the Zika virus epidemic with those born during this period. We compared 958 neonates born during the pre-Zika epidemic with 264 neonates born

35 Individuals With HUWE1‐Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder and Suggested Clinical Evaluations

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT HUWE1 (HECT, UBA, and WWE Domain Containing E3 Ubiquitin Protein Ligase1, OMIM 300697), located at Xp11.22, encodes a ubiquitin ligase that is highly conserved across species. Genetic variants in HUWE1 described in multiple independent studies cause X‐linked intellectual disability, including in the patients identified by Juberg, Marsidi, and ...

Expanding the Phenotype of TUFM‐Related Combined Oxidative Phosphorylation Deficiency 4

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Combined oxidative phosphorylation deficiency 4 (COXPD4) is a rare mitochondrial condition caused by biallelic deleterious variants in the nuclear‐encoded gene TUFM. To date, most individuals with COXPD4 have presented with encephalopathy, hypotonia, and abnormal brain imaging. Many of the reported individuals died in infancy. We aim to expand

Developmental and Phenotypic Outcomes in Mild Phenylalanine Hydroxylase Deficiency

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Benign hyperphenylalaninemia (bHPA) is defined as elevated phenylalanine (Phe) levels remaining ≤ 360 μmol/L (6 mg/dL) and not requiring medical intervention. Individuals with bHPA may demonstrate a rise in their Phe levels > 360 μmol/L, effectively developing a mild PKU phenotype requiring therapy to prevent neurocognitive complications. This

Long‐Term Follow Up of Two Patients With Variants in the Cluster 1031‐1159 of TRRAP Gene: Expanding the Phenotype of Developmental Delay With or Without Dysmorphic Facies and Autism

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transformation/transcription domain‐associated protein (TRRAP) gene encodes a large multidomain protein, a member of the phosphatidylinositol 3‐kinase‐related kinase (PIKK) family. TRRAP is a component of the histone acetyltransferase (HAT) complex, and it plays an important role in gene transcription, DNA repair, and cell‐cycle regulation.
