The Genetic Landscape of Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia in Greece
We investigated 112 Greek index‐cases with hereditary spastic paraplegia collected over > 25 years using NGS and MLPA. We identified a causative variant in 68 patients (60.7%), including 7 novel causative variants. This study presents a comprehensive overview of the phenotypic and genotypic spectrum of HSP in the Greek population.

The frequency and severity of congenital heart disease vary extensively in individuals with 22q11.22–23 distal deletions. Reduced gene dosage particularly within the low copy repeat (LCR22) D–E region including MAPK1 and HIC2 conveys risk for these defects.

Williams-Beuren Syndrome: A Clinical Study of 55 Brazilian Patients and the Diagnostic Use of MLPA
Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS) is a genetic disease caused by a microdeletion in the 7q11.23 region. It is characterized by congenital heart disease, mainly supravalvular aortic stenosis, mental retardation, mild short stature, facial dysmorphisms, and ...

Copy number variations (CNVs) in 11p15.5 account for more than 2% of the molecular disturbances in the imprinting disorders Beckwith–Wiedemann and Silver–Russell syndrome. Their size and gene content vary, and therefore the impact on the phenotype is variable. Based on published data from > 220 carriers, an overview of the pathogenicity of 11p15.5 CNVs

Genetic and epigenetic events play a critical role in the tumorigenic process of breast cancer. The more genes are studied, the more accurate the epigenetic "signature" can be established. The aim of our work has been to apply the technique Methylation-Specific Multiplex Ligation dependent Probe Amplification (MS-MLPA) to study the methylation profile ...

Molecular Testing in Sickle Cell Disease: From Newborn Screening to Transfusion Care
ABSTRACT Sickle cell disease (SCD) is one of the most frequent monogenic diseases worldwide and a highly heterogeneous and complex disease. SCD care carries several challenges. This includes early and accurate diagnosis as well as optimal red blood cell transfusion matching in this population carrying a high risk of alloimmunization.

DNA Methylation Episignature as a Novel Diagnostic Tool for Diamond‐Blackfan Anemia Syndrome
Diamond‐Blackfan Anemia Syndrome (DBAS) is a congenital bone marrow failure disorder characterized by defective erythropoiesis and a spectrum of congenital anomalies, including craniofacial malformations, limb abnormalities, and cardiac and renal defects.

ABSTRACT O‐GlcNAc transferase (OGT) and its antagonist O‐GlcNAcase (OGA) regulate protein O‐GlcNAcylation, a highly conserved post‐translational modification involved in metabolic sensing. Pathogenic variants in the OGT gene cause an X‐linked congenital disorder of glycosylation (OGT‐CDG) presenting developmental delay, hypotonia, intellectual ...
