A novel mutation in the VHL gene in a Chinese family with von Hippel-Lindau disease

open access: yesBMC Medical Genetics, 2018
Background Von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) disease is an autosomal dominant inherited cancer syndrome, and VHL is identified as a tumor suppressor gene. The main objective of this study was to identify disease-causing mutations in a Chinese family affected with ...

Generation of gene edited hiPSC from familial Alzheimer's disease patient carrying N141I missense mutation in presenilin 2

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2021
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the major cause of dementia worldwide. Early-onset familial AD accounts for about 0.5% of all AD and is caused by single major gene mutations and autosomal dominant inheritance.

A novel mutation in the tropomyosin 1 gene in a Chinese patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

open access: yesAll Life, 2022
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an inherited heart disease characterized by left ventricular hypertrophy. Although sarcomeric gene mutations can explain many HCM cases, the genetic basis of approximately half of HCM cases remains elusive.
