Effect of mitophagy in oocytes and granulosa cells on oocyte quality†
Biology of Reproduction, 2020 Abstract Mitophagy is the process by which cells selectively remove supernumerary or damaged mitochondria through autophagy, and is crucial for mitochondrial homeostasis and cell survival. Mitochondria play vital roles in determining the developmental competence of oocytes.

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Turner Syndrome (TS) is a sex chromosomal disorder associated with karyotype heterogeneity. Although TS can be associated with severe prenatal findings, most often linked to the 45, X karyotype, the majority of TS fetuses have no overt phenotype, resulting in delayed diagnosis and management.

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part C: Seminars in Medical Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Turner syndrome (TS) is frequently complicated by congenital heart disease (CHD). While left‐sided lesions such as bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and coarctation of the aorta are the most common structural heart lesions in TS, other anomalies, such as aortic arch malformations, hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), persistent left superior vena

HCN2‐Associated Neurodevelopmental Disorders: Data from Patients and Xenopus Cell Models
Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.Objective We aimed to characterize the phenotypic spectrum and functional consequences associated with variants in HCN2, encoding for the hyperpolarization‐activated cyclic nucleotide (HCN) gated channel 2. Methods GeneMatcher facilitated the recruitment of 21 individuals with HCN2 variants from 15 unrelated families, carrying HCN2 variants.

The MinK Potassium Channel Exists in Functional and Nonfunctional Forms When Expressed in the Plasma Membrane of \u3cem\u3eXenopus\u3c/em\u3e Oocytes [PDF]
, 1994 The minK protein induces a slowly activating voltage-dependent potassium current when expressed in Xenopus oocytes. In order to measure the levels of minK protein in the plasma membrane, we have modified the minK gene by inserting a 9 amino acid epitope ...
