Genetics of monogenic disorders of calcium and bone metabolism. [PDF]
AbstractDisorders of calcium homeostasis are the most frequent metabolic bone and mineral disease encountered by endocrinologists. These disorders usually manifest as primary hyperparathyroidism (PHPT) or hypoparathyroidism (HP), which have a monogenic aetiology in 5%–10% of cases, and may occur as an isolated endocrinopathy, or as part of a complex ...

Clinical interpretation of cell-based non-invasive prenatal testing for monogenic disorders including repeat expansion disorders: potentials and pitfalls [PDF]
Introduction: Circulating fetal cells isolated from maternal blood can be used for prenatal testing, representing a safe alternative to invasive testing.

Noninvasive prenatal testing of common aneuploidies has become routine over the past decade, but testing of monogenic disorders remains a challenge in clinical implementation. Most recent studies have inherent limitations, such as complicated procedures,

Monogenic disorders of obesity and body fat distribution
Recently, great progress has been made towards understanding the molecular basis of body fat regulation. Identification of mutations in several genes in spontaneous monogenic animal models of obesity and development of transgenic models have indicated ...

Monogenic Disorders of Puberty [PDF]
Normal puberty is associated with the onset and progressive activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal (HPG) axis and the resultant development of secondary sexual characteristics. Puberty begins with increasing nocturnal pulsatile hypothalamic GnRH secretion, which gradually occurs throughout the 24-h day. Pulsatile GnRH stimulates pituitary FSH

A Roadmap to Gene Discoveries and Novel Therapies in Monogenic Low and High Bone Mass Disorders
Genetic disorders of the skeleton encompass a diverse group of bone diseases differing in clinical characteristics, severity, incidence and molecular etiology. Of particular interest are the monogenic rare bone mass disorders, with the underlying genetic

Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Monogenic Disorders [PDF]
Preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) has evolved into a well-established alternative to invasive prenatal diagnosis, even though genetic testing of single or few cells is quite challenging. PGT-M is in theory available for any monogenic disorder for which the disease-causing locus has been unequivocally identified. In practice, the list of indications

What Can RNA-Based Therapy Do for Monogenic Diseases?
The use of RNA-based approaches to treat monogenic diseases (i.e., hereditary disorders caused by mutations in single genes) has been developed on different fronts.
