Genetic and Phenotypic Features of the Five Known Polyaminopathies: A Critical Narrative Review

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polyaminopathies are a recently described family of rare genetic neurodevelopmental disorders. Polyaminopathies disrupt the biosynthesis of the primary polyamines: putrescine, spermidine, and spermine. Snyder–Robinson syndrome results from hemizygous loss‐of‐function variants in the spermine synthase (SMS) gene, resulting in decreased or ...

Treatment of osteopenia [PDF]

open access: yesReviews in Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders, 2011
The majority of osteoporotic fractures happen in individuals with BMD t-scores in the osteopenic range (-2,5< t-score 100) than in patients with fractured and t-score below -2,5 (NNT 10-20); 2)while specific osteoporosis treatments have demonstrated significant reductions of the fracture risk in patients with t-score

Diversity analysis of gut microbiota in osteoporosis and osteopenia patients

open access: yesPeerJ, 2017
Some evidence suggests that bone health can be regulated by gut microbiota. To better understand this, we performed 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing to analyze the intestinal microbial diversity in primary osteoporosis (OP) patients, osteopenia (ON) patients
