Pathogenesis and potential therapeutic targets of trichorhinophalangeal syndrome; lessons obtained from animal studies

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Trichorhinophalangeal syndrome (TRPS) is a rare genetic disease inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. It occurs in 1 in 100,000 people globally and is caused by several types of mutations of the TRPS1 gene.

Expression of mutant TIE2 p.L914F during mouse development causes embryonic lethality and defects in vascular remodeling

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Sporadic venous malformation (VM) is associated with the hyperactivating p.L914F mutation in TIE2, a receptor tyrosine kinase essential for vascular development. This mutation is not found in hereditary VM, suggesting incompatibility with life when expressed during early vascular development.

Risk of autism spectrum disorder at 18 months of age is associated with prenatal level of polychlorinated biphenyls exposure in a Japanese birth cohort

Scientific Reports
Prenatal exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) has a detrimental effect on early cognitive development. Based on these observations, some researchers suggested that prenatal exposure to PCB may be an environmental cause of autism spectrum disorder

Maternal Gestational Low‐Grade Inflammation and the Risk of Anorexia Nervosa in Daughters

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Prenatal exposures have been suggested to have a programming effect on neural and metabolic development, which may affect the risk of eating disorders. We investigated the association between prospectively measured maternal gestational high‐sensitivity C‐reactive protein (hs‐CRP), an established inflammatory biomarker, and subsequent

Preliminary Evidence of the Association Between Binge Eating and Preeclampsia in Pregnant U.S. Military Active‐Duty Service Women

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Binge eating is the most common disordered eating behavior among pregnant women. This study examined the association of binge‐eating frequency with the presence of a self‐reported current preeclampsia diagnosis in a sample of U.S. military active‐duty Service women. Methods Active‐duty Service women (N = 134), 20–27 weeks gestation,

An estimating equations approach to fitting latent exposure models with longitudinal health outcomes

, 2009
The analysis of data arising from environmental health studies which collect a large number of measures of exposure can benefit from using latent variable models to summarize exposure information. However, difficulties with estimation of model parameters
