The origin of monozygotic twinning
The incidence of monozygotic twinning appears to be increasing within the field of assisted human reproduction. Many theories have been put forward as to how and when this occurs. Whatever the cause, the normal events of embryo development, which necessarily involve axis formation, patterning and polarization, need to be adhered to in order to obtain a

Despite a genetic component in the development of Parkinson’s disease (PD), monozygotic twin pairs often display discordance for PD. Here, we describe the generation of six human induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines from dermal fibroblasts of three

ABSTRACT WAGR spectrum disorder (WAGRSD) is an ultra‐rare congenital disorder caused by heterozygous deletion of chromosome 11p13. While classically associated with Wilms tumor, Aniridia, Genitourinary anomalies, and a Range of developmental delays, accurate delineation of the deletion is critical for prognosis because the phenotypic spectrum extends ...

Expanded Phenotype Associated With an Intronic PPP1R12A Variant: A Case Report and Literature Review
ABSTRACT Autosomal dominant PPP1R12A‐related genitourinary and/or brain malformation syndrome is a recently described multisystem disorder caused by loss‐of‐function variants in the protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 12a (PPP1R12A) gene. To date, 22 affected individuals have been reported with variable brain malformations and genitourinary ...

Discordant Keratoconus in Monozygotic Twins
We report a case of discordant keratoconus (KC) in a set of monozygotic twins with contrasting environmental risk factors. Twin one had bilateral, asymmetrical KC. He reported significant eye rubbing using his knuckles during his night-shift work as an emergency doctor. His usual sleeping position on the left side corresponded to the most affected eye.
