In a multicenter study of 692 patients with kidney disease, a 44‐gene panel achieved a 36% diagnostic yield. The 36% yield was not significantly lower than with larger panels or whole‐exome sequencing. A post hoc machine‐learning model identified key predictors to stratify patients into four risk bins (11%–74% yield), enabling more cost‐effective ...

Comprehensive characterization of PKHD1 mutation in human colon cancer
Introduction The PKHD1 (Polycystic Kidney and Hepatic Disease 1) gene is essential for producing fibrocystin or polyductin, which is crucial in various cellular functions.

A polycystin-centric view of cyst formation and disease: the polycystins revisited [PDF]
It is 20 years since the identification of PKD1, the major gene mutated in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), followed closely by the cloning of PKD2. These major breakthroughs have led in turn to a period of intense investigation into

Background In pediatric hereditary cystic kidney diseases, epithelial cell defects mostly result from rare, autosomal recessively inherited pathogenic variants in genes encoding proteins of the cilia-centrosome complex.

Invited review: Bioinformatic methods to discover the likely causal variant of a new autosomal recessive genetic condition using genome-wide data [PDF]
In animals, new autosomal recessive genetic diseases (ARGD) arise all the time due to the regular, random mutations that occur during meiosis. In order to reduce the effect of any damaging new variant, it is necessary to find its cause.

ABSTRACT Background TP53 gain‐of‐function (GOF) effects lead to cellular responses beyond the capabilities of wild‐type TP53 and are known to promote cancer progression, resulting in poorer outcomes in cancer. Methods A total of 486 patients diagnosed with non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) with baseline DNA sequencing data were enrolled in our study ...

Sirenomelia in Twin IVF Pregnancy: A Rare Case Report
ABSTRACT Sirenomelia is a rare and fatal anomaly. It typically manifests as a partial or complete fusion of the lower limbs, along with genitourinary and pulmonary malformations. In the case of twin pregnancies, the occurrence is extremely low.

Defects of renal tubular homeostasis and cystogenesis in the Pkhd1 knockout
Summary: Loss of PKHD1-gene function causes autosomal recessive polycystic kidney disease (ARPKD) characterized by bilateral severely enlarged kidneys and congenital liver fibrosis requiring kidney replacement therapy most frequently during childhood ...
