The Prop1-like homeobox gene unc-42 specifies the identity of synaptically connected neurons
Many neuronal identity regulators are expressed in distinct populations of cells in the nervous system, but their function is often analyzed only in specific isolated cellular contexts, thereby potentially leaving overarching themes in gene function ...

Counseling for Fetal Central Nervous System Defects
AbstractFetal central nervous system defects are one of the commonest antenatally detected abnormalities. They consist of a wide array of lesions with heterogeneous etiologies and outcomes. Counselling of the family in such cases forms an integral part of management.

Aging Is a Key Driver for Adult Acute Myeloid Leukemia
Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is a classical age‐related hematologic malignancy, and a key driver of AML is aging, which profoundly regulates intrinsic factors such as genomic instability, epigenetic reprogramming, and metabolic dysregulation, and alters bone marrow microenvironment.

IgCAMs redundantly control axon navigation in
Background Cell adhesion molecules of the immunoglobulin superfamily (IgCAMs) form one of the largest and most diverse families of adhesion molecules and receptors in the nervous system. Many members of this family mediate contact and communication among

Exploratory Analysis of ELP1 Expression in Whole Blood From Patients With Familial Dysautonomia
ABSTRACT Background Familial dysautonomia (FD) is a hereditary neurodevelopmental disorder caused by aberrant splicing of the ELP1 gene, leading to a tissue‐specific reduction in ELP1 protein expression. Preclinical models indicate that increasing ELP1 levels can mitigate disease manifestations.

Mitochondrial proteins and congenital birth defect risk: a mendelian randomization study
Background Mitochondrial dysfunction has been hypothesized to play a role in the etiology of congenital birth defects. However, evidence from observational studies is susceptible to bias and confounding.
