Case report: genetic analysis of a novel frameshift mutation in FMR1 gene in a Chinese family

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2023
Fragile X syndrome (FXS) [OMIM 300624] is a common X-linked inherited syndrome with an incidence only second to that of trisomy 21. More than 95% of fragile X syndrome is caused by reduced or absent fragile X intellectual disability protein 1 (FMRP ...

Whole exome sequencing identified a novel compound heterozygous variation in COL7A1 gene causing dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2022
Dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (DEB) is a series of severe genetic conditions affecting skin and nails caused by mutations in the COL7A1 gene. DEB has a strong phenotypic variability.

Integrated analysis of the transcriptome-wide m6A methylome in preeclampsia and healthy control placentas [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2020
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is the most prevalent modification in eukaryotic mRNA and potential regulatory functions of m6A have been shown by mapping the RNA m6A modification landscape. m6A modification in active gene regulation manifests itself as altered

Prenatal diagnosis of mosaic chromosomal aneuploidy and uniparental disomy and clinical outcomes evaluation of four fetuses

open access: yesMolecular Cytogenetics, 2023
Background Few co-occurrence cases of mosaic aneuploidy and uniparental disomy (UPD) chromosomes have been reported in prenatal periods. It is a big challenge for us to predict fetal clinical outcomes with these chromosome abnormalities because of their ...

Delineation of an inverted tandem Xq23-26.3 duplication in a female featuring extremely short stature and mild mental deficiency

open access: yesMolecular Cytogenetics, 2023
Background Partial duplications involving the long arm of the X chromosome are associated with mental retardation, short stature, microcephaly, and a wide range of physical findings. Female carriers usually have no clinical phenotype.

Maternal and Fetal Outcomes in Women with Diabetes in Pregnancy Treated before and after the Introduction of a Standardized Multidisciplinary Management Protocol

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Research, 2021
Background. Diabetes in pregnancy is associated with an increased risk to the woman and to the developing fetus. Currently, there is no consensus on the optimal management strategies for the follow-up and the timing of delivery of pregnancies affected by
