Identification of a Novel FLNC Truncating Variant in Fetal Tetralogy of Fallot: A Case Report and Review of the Literature

Diagnostics
Background and Clinical Significance: FLNC encodes filamin C, a muscle-scaffolding protein crucial for cardiac integrity. Pathogenic FLNC variants cause diverse cardiomyopathies (hypertrophic, dilated, restrictive, and arrhythmogenic) and myofibrillar ...

Epilepsy characteristics in patients with muscle‐eye‐brain disease: A systematic review of electroclinical features

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Objectives Muscle‐Eye‐Brain disease (MEB) is a dystroglycanopathy that belongs to the congenital muscular dystrophies. Central nervous system manifestations include congenital brain abnormalities, neurodevelopmental delay, and epilepsy, making it a rare but important cause of developmental and epileptic encephalopathy.

Neonatal developmental and epileptic encephalopathy with movement disorder and arthrogryposis: A shared phenotype across brain‐expressed sodium channelopathies

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Neonatal developmental and epileptic encephalopathy with movement disorder and arthrogryposis (NDEEMA) represents the most severe end of the gain‐of‐function (GOF) SCN1A disorder spectrum. Sporadic cases of congenital arthrogryposis have also been reported in individuals with SCN2A‐, SCN3A‐, and SCN8A‐related developmental and ...

Genetic epilepsies with myoclonic seizures: Mechanisms and syndromes

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Genetic epilepsy with myoclonic seizures encompasses a heterogeneous spectrum of conditions, ranging from benign and self‐limiting forms to severe, progressive disorders. While their causes are diverse, a significant proportion stems from genetic abnormalities.

-associated triadopathy presenting with myalgia, muscle weakness, and asymptomatic hyperCKemia

Therapeutic Advances in Neurological Disorders
CACNA1S variants can alter the structure and function of the calcium channel, resulting in abnormal calcium influx and homeostasis. It is well established that pathogenic variants in CACNA1S can lead to hypokalemic periodic paralysis, malignant ...

ESPGHAN position paper on screening, diagnosis and investigation of paediatric metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease

Journal of Pediatric Gastroenterology and Nutrition, EarlyView.
Abstract Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is the most common reason for elevated liver enzymes in children in Europe, affecting more than 5% of all children. Since the last iteration of this position paper, there have been substantial advances in our understanding of the disease.

Enzymology of the metazoan tRNA ligase complex: a lifetime in cycles

Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences
This review highlights the emerging biochemistry and biology of the metazoan tRNA-ligase complex (tRNA-LC). We begin with an overview of the cleavage-ligation pathways dependent on the tRNA-LC, epitomised by the essential process of pre-tRNA splicing ...

Optical mapping reveals a higher level of large‐scale structural variants in a family with paternally transmitted myotonic dystrophy and independent Parkinson's disease

The Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a clinically challenging multisystem neuromuscular hereditary disorder, with generational increase in severity and earlier age at onset. It is caused by an unstable cytosine‐thymine‐guanine repeat expansion at the DMPK locus, accompanied by associated genetic and epigenetic modifications.

Null mutations causing depletion of the type 1 ryanodine receptor (RYR1) are commonly associated with recessive structural congenital myopathies with cores

Human Mutation, 2008
Mutations of the ryanodine receptor cause dominant and recessive forms of congenital myopathies with cores. Quantitative defects of RYR1 have been reported in families presenting with recessive forms of the disease and epigenic regulation has been recently proposed to explain potential maternal monoallelic silencing of the RYR1 gene.
