Phenotypic heterogeneity of ZMPSTE24 deficiency [PDF]
A 4‐year‐old girl was referred to the Undiagnosed Diseases Network with a history of short stature, thin and translucent skin, macrocephaly, small hands, and camptodactyly. She had been diagnosed with possible Hallerman–Streiff syndrome. Her evaluation showed that she was mosaic for uniparental isodisomy of chromosome 1, which harbored a pathogenic c ...

Privatization of Biofilm Matrix in Structurally Heterogeneous Biofilms
The self-produced biofilm provides beneficial protection for the enclosed cells, but the costly production of matrix components makes producer cells susceptible to cheating by nonproducing individuals.

Immunodeficiency in Vici syndrome: A heterogeneous phenotype [PDF]
AbstractVici syndrome is a rare congenital multisystem disorder characterized by agenesis of the corpus callosum, hypotonia, developmental delay, hypopigmentation, cataract, cardiomyopathy, and immunological abnormalities. Recurrent infections, mainly affecting the respiratory tract, have been reported in the majority of cases, representing an ...

Modeling the emergence of phenotypic heterogeneity in vascularized tumors [PDF]
We present a mathematical study of the emergence of phenotypic heterogeneity in vascularized tumors. Our study is based on formal asymptotic analysis and numerical simulations of a system of nonlocal parabolic equations that describes the phenotypic ...

Phenotypic heterogeneity in mycobacterial stringent response [PDF]
Abstract Background A common survival strategy of microorganisms subjected to stress involves the generation of phenotypic heterogeneity in the isogenic microbial population enabling a subset of the population to survive under stress. In a recent study, a mycobacterial population of M.

Cellular Environment and Phenotypic Heterogeneity: How Data-Driven Modeling Finds the Smoking Gun
The cellular environment modifies cellular phenotypes, in particular, the stress response phenotype, which easily exhibits high phenotypic heterogeneity due to the common characteristics of its regulatory networks. The aim of this work is to quantify and
