ABSTRACT Congenital amegakaryocytic thrombocytopenia is a rare inherited bone marrow failure syndrome primarily caused by MPL gene mutations. It presents with severe neonatal thrombocytopenia and typically progresses to pancytopenia. We report the first disease‐associated case of the MPL variant c.23T>G, identified through whole‐exome sequencing in an ...

Key Clinical Message This case underscores the difficulty in diagnosis of bone marrow failure disorders, as the presentation of disease can be inconsistent, complicated by complex and ever‐expanding genetic etiologies.

Non‐Surgical Periodontal Therapy Modulates Oral Microbiome in Primary Immunodeficient Children
ABSTRACT Background and Aim Primary Immunodeficiencies (PIDs) arise from rare genetic defects affecting humoral and cellular immunity, which can lead to reduced dental plaque control. This study aimed to characterise the subgingival dental plaque microbiome in neutropenic PID children compared to healthy controls and assess their response to non ...

Germline Cancer Susceptibility Variants in Patients With Uveal Melanoma
Germline exome sequencing of 106 Finnish patients with UM, considered at higher risk for genetic cancer predisposition, identified pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants associated with varying risk of malignancies in 16 patients (15%). Six patients (6%) carried multiple variants and had a median diagnosis age of 51, compared to 60 in the full cohort

Abstract Background The bone marrow failure syndromes (BMFS) are clinically heterogeneous conditions with both inherited and acquired etiologies. Optimal care is often challenged by the complexity of these disorders and gaps in healthcare delivery.

Gene expression regulation by upstream open reading frames in rare diseases [PDF]
Upstream open reading frames (uORFs) constitute a class of cis-acting elements that regulate translation initiation. Mutations or polymorphisms that alter, create or disrupt a uORF have been widely associated with several human disorders, including ...
