Mathematical modeling of Zika disease in pregnant women and newborns with microcephaly in Brazil

open access: yes, 2017
We propose a new mathematical model for the spread of Zika virus. Special attention is paid to the transmission of microcephaly. Numerical simulations show the accuracy of the model with respect to the Zika outbreak occurred in Brazil.Comment: This is a ...

Blocking Zika virus vertical transmission. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The outbreak of the Zika virus (ZIKV) has been associated with increased incidence of congenital malformations. Although recent efforts have focused on vaccine development, treatments for infected individuals are needed urgently. Sofosbuvir (SOF), an FDA-

Differentiating the Clinical and Variant Spectrum of Hardikar Syndrome From Other MED12‐Related Developmental Disorders

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The rare X‐linked female‐restricted Hardikar syndrome (HDKR, OMIM # 301068) is characterized by multiple congenital anomalies including orofacial clefts, gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and cardiac anomalies, but cognitive and neurobehavioral development is rarely impaired.

The MRN complex is transcriptionally regulated by MYCN during neural cell proliferation to control replication stress [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The MRE11/RAD50/NBS1 (MRN) complex is a major sensor of DNA double strand breaks, whose role in controlling faithful DNA replication and preventing replication stress is also emerging. Inactivation of the MRN complex invariably leads to developmental and/

Causes of Microcephaly in the Zika Era in Argentina: A Retrospective Study

open access: yesGlobal Pediatric Health, 2021
There are gaps in understanding the causes and consequences of microcephaly. This paper describes the epidemiological characteristics, clinical presentations, and etiologies of children presenting microcephaly during the Zika outbreak in Argentina.

Genome-wide Integrative Analysis of Zika-Virus-Infected Neuronal Stem Cells Reveals Roles for MicroRNAs in Cell Cycle and Stemness. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Zika virus (ZIKV) infection is implicated in severe fetal developmental disorders, including microcephaly. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) post-transcriptionally regulate numerous processes associated with viral infection and neurodegeneration, but their ...

Genetic and Phenotypic Features of the Five Known Polyaminopathies: A Critical Narrative Review

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polyaminopathies are a recently described family of rare genetic neurodevelopmental disorders. Polyaminopathies disrupt the biosynthesis of the primary polyamines: putrescine, spermidine, and spermine. Snyder–Robinson syndrome results from hemizygous loss‐of‐function variants in the spermine synthase (SMS) gene, resulting in decreased or ...

DNM1 encephalopathy: A new disease of vesicle fission. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
ObjectiveTo evaluate the phenotypic spectrum caused by mutations in dynamin 1 (DNM1), encoding the presynaptic protein DNM1, and to investigate possible genotype-phenotype correlations and predicted functional consequences based on structural modeling ...
