A Novel PTPN11 mutation in LEOPARD syndrome [PDF]
PTPN11 gene mutations are common to both patients with Noonan (NS) and LEOPARD syndrome (LS). So far only two recurrent mutations have been identified in LS patients by different research groups, i.e., Tyr279Cys and Thr468Met. In this work we describe the third PTPN11 mutation that has been found in a single LS patient.

KAT7‐acetylated and cytoplasm‐translocated G‐protein GαS enhances IL‐6 effect and drives HCC progenitor cell progression. Abstract Background and Aims Hepatocarcinogenesis goes through HCC progenitor cells (HcPCs) to fully established HCC, and the mechanisms driving the development of HcPCs are still largely unknown.

Loss-of-function mutations in PTPN11 cause metachondromatosis, but not Ollier disease or Maffucci syndrome. [PDF]
Metachondromatosis (MC) is a rare, autosomal dominant, incompletely penetrant combined exostosis and enchondromatosis tumor syndrome. MC is clinically distinct from other multiple exostosis or multiple enchondromatosis syndromes and is unlinked to EXT1 ...

PTPN11 mutations in LEOPARD syndrome [PDF]
LEOPARD syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder with multiple lentigines, congenital cardiac abnormalities, ocular hypertelorism, and retardation of growth. Deafness and genital abnormalities are less frequently found. We report a father and daughter and a third, unrelated patient with LEOPARD syndrome.

LEPOARD syndrome: A report of a case with a novel PTPN11 mutation [PDF]
LEOPARD syndrome (LS) is an autosomal dominant inherited or sporadic disease associated with high penetrance and phenotypic variablity.1 It is caused by mutations in the protein tyrosine phosphatase nonreceptor 11 (PTPN11), B-RAF, and RAF1 genes.2 The acronym LEOPARD refers to the main manifestations of the syndrome, namely, Lentigines ...

Outcomes in growth hormone-treated Noonan syndrome children: impact of PTPN11 mutation status
Introduction: Mutations in PTPN11 are associated with Noonan syndrome (NS). Although the effectiveness of growth hormone therapy (GHT) in treating sh ort stature due to NS has been previously demonstrated, the effect of PTPN11 mutation status on the long-

Thoracic low grade glial neoplasm with concurrent H3 K27M and PTPN11 mutations
We present the case of a 41-year-old man who developed worsening mid-thoracic back pain and imaging revealed a well-circumscribed intramedullary tumor in the thoracic spinal cord.

Somatic PTPN11 mutations in childhood acute myeloid leukaemia [PDF]
SummarySomatic mutations in PTPN11, the gene encoding the transducer SHP‐2, have emerged as a novel class of lesions that upregulate RAS signalling and contribute to leukaemogenesis. In a recent study of 69 children and adolescents with de novo acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), we documented a non‐random distribution of PTPN11 mutations among French ...
