Accumulation of rare coding variants in genes implicated in risk of human cleft lip with or without cleft palate. [PDF]

, 2019
Cleft lip with/without cleft palate (CLP) is a common craniofacial malformation with complex etiologies, reflecting both genetic and environmental factors. Most of the suspected genetic risk for CLP has yet to be identified. To further classify risk loci

Mutator phenotypes of common polymorphisms and missense mutations in MSH2 [PDF]

Current Biology, 1999
Hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer (HNPCC) is associated with germline mutations in the DNA mismatch repair gene hMSH2 [1], the human homologue of the Escherichia coli MutS gene. These are mostly nonsense, frameshift or deletion mutations that result in loss of intact protein and complete inactivation of DNA mismatch repair.

Characterization of Microplastics in Human Gastric Cancer and Control Tissues and Analysis of Associated Genetic Features

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study characterizes the presence of microplastics in human normal gastric, para‐tumor, and gastric tumor tissue and confirms the association between microplastic exposure and lymph node metastasis in gastric cancer. This study explores the transcriptomic changes induced by microplastic exposure, laying the foundation for further investigation into

Generation of Casp8FL122/123GG Mice Using CRISPR-Cas9 Technology

STAR Protocols, 2020
Summary: The purpose of this protocol is to describe the generation of missense mutations in mice using CRISPR-Cas9 technology. The current protocol focuses on the generation of a Casp8FL122/123GG missense mutation, but it can be adapted to introduce any

Hyperinsulinism-hyperammonaemia syndrome: novel mutations in the GLUD1 gene and genotype-phenotype correlations [PDF]

, 2009
Background: Activating mutations in the GLUD1 gene (which encodes for the intra-mitochondrial enzyme glutamate dehydrogenase, GDH) cause the hyperinsulinism–hyperammonaemia (HI/HA) syndrome.

Behavioral Phenotypes of Disc1 Missense Mutations in Mice [PDF]

Neuron, 2007
To support the role of DISC1 in human psychiatric disorders, we identified and analyzed two independently derived ENU-induced mutations in Exon 2 of mouse Disc1. Mice with mutation Q31L showed depressive-like behavior with deficits in the forced swim test and other measures that were reversed by the antidepressant bupropion, but not by rolipram, a ...

NARFL Knockout Triggers Ferroptosis‐Driven Vascular Endothelial Dysfunction

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
NARFL is vital for CIA and oxidative stress resistance. NARFL deletion in HPMEC cells, zebrafish, and mice is lethal and rescued by a Ferroptosis inhibitor. NARFL deficiency disrupted its interaction with CIA proteins, decreased aconitase activity, increased IRP1 activity, induced Fe overload, and led to ferroptosis and oxidative stress, resulting in ...

Three Novel Mutations in the NPHS1 Gene in Vietnamese Patients with Congenital Nephrotic Syndrome

Case Reports in Genetics, 2017
Congenital nephrotic syndrome, a rare and severe disease, is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. The disease manifests shortly after birth and occurs predominantly in families of Finnish origin but has now been observed in all countries and races.
