PRODH polymorphisms, cortical volumes and thickness in schizophrenia. [PDF]
Schizophrenia is a neurodevelopmental disorder with high heritability. Several lines of evidence indicate that the PRODH gene may be related to the disorder.

SlgA, encoded by the homolog of the human schizophrenia-associated gene PRODH, acts in clock neurons to regulate Drosophila aggression [PDF]
Mutations in the proline dehydrogenase gene PRODH are linked to behavioral alterations in schizophrenia and as part of DiGeorge and velo-cardio-facial syndromes, but the role of PRODH in their etiology remains unclear.

Proline dehydrogenase (PRODH) gene polymorphisms and the risk of schizophrenia in Iranian populations [PDF]
Schizophrenia is a highly heritable mental disorder which can be occurred as a result of mutations or single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in various genes.

P53 family members modulate the expression of PRODH, but not PRODH2, via intronic p53 response elements. [PDF]
The tumor suppressor p53 was previously shown to markedly up-regulate the expression of the PRODH gene, encoding the proline dehydrogenase (PRODH) enzyme, which catalyzes the first step in proline degradation.

Hyperprolinemia type I caused by homozygous p.T466M mutation in PRODH [PDF]
Hyperprolinemia type I (HPI) is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder caused by defects in proline oxidase. We herein describe a case of a patient with HPI and harboring the NM_016335.4 (PRODH_v001):c.1397 C > T (p.T466M) mutation and polymorphisms ...

Understanding the Role of Estrogen Receptor Status in PRODH/POX-Dependent Apoptosis/Survival in Breast Cancer Cells [PDF]
It has been suggested that activation of estrogen receptor α (ER α) stimulates cell proliferation. In contrast, estrogen receptor β (ER β) has anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic activity.

Connexin43 Deficiency Leads to Ventricular Arrhythmias by Reprogramming Proline Metabolism. [PDF]
The study demonstrated that connexin43 (Cx43) knockout caused arrhythmic phenotype and decreased proline content in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, Cx43 interacts with the amino acid transporter SNAT2 (sodium‐dependent neutral amino acid transporter), and its deficiency disrupts proline transport and metabolism.

Mexican Patients With Suspected 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome: Clinical Characterization and Molecular Findings by Fluorescence In Situ Hybridization and Multiplex Ligation-Dependent Probe Amplification. [PDF]
Evaluation of 80 Mexican patients with suspected 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, including detailed phenotypic characterization. Multiplex ligation‐dependent probe amplification identified both typical and atypical deletions, underscoring the need for complementary approaches to fluorescence in situ hybridization.

Functional Consequences of PRODH Missense Mutations [PDF]
PRODH maps to 22q11 in the region deleted in the velocardiofacial syndrome/DiGeorge syndrome (VCFS/DGS) and encodes proline oxidase (POX), a mitochondrial inner-membrane enzyme that catalyzes the first step in the proline degradation pathway. At least 16 PRODH missense mutations have been identified in studies of type I hyperprolinemia (HPI) and ...
