Photobiomodulation‑Engineered Extracellular Vesicles Enhance Neural Differentiation via UFL1‑Mediated UFMylation in Spinal Cord Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Photobiomodulated microglia release engineered extracellular vesicles that deliver UFL1 to the injured spinal cord. UFL1 competitively binds p53 with MDM2, inhibiting p53 ubiquitination and stabilizing p53 signaling. This dual mechanism simultaneously promotes anti‐inflammatory microglial polarization and directs neural stem cell differentiation toward

TECTB Variants Reveal Tectorial Membrane Vulnerability in Dominant Non‐Syndromic Hearing Loss

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
TECTB is a non‐collagenous protein of the tectorial membrane – an extracellular matrix of the cochlea. This study identifies dominant missense variants in TECTB linked to human hereditary deafness in two unrelated families. Genetically engineered mice homozygous for one of the variants are profoundly deaf, whereas heterozygous mice have normal hearing ...

TNAP and PHOSPHO1 Function Synergistically to Afford Critical Control Over the Mineralization of the Postnatal Murine Skeleton

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Biomineralization underpins skeletal development, yet its molecular control remains incompletely understood. Using a novel murine knockout model, this study reveals the essential and complementary roles of PHOSPHO1 and TNAP in postnatal skeletal development.

Genotype–Phenotype Correlations of Monoallelic PFIC Variants in Pediatric Liver Disease: A Multicenter Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis (PFIC) is classically caused by biallelic pathogenic variants, yet monoallelic variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in PFIC‐associated genes are increasingly identified in children with cholestasis, creating diagnostic uncertainty.

Heterozygous Variants in LRP1 Cause a Neurodevelopmental Disorder With Congenital Heart Defects

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT LRP1 encodes the low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor‐related protein 1 (LRP1), a transmembrane protein involved in endocytosis and activation of multiple signaling pathways. LRP1 variants have been implicated in the pathogenesis of congenital heart defects (CHD), Alzheimer's disease, and neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD).
