Minigene splicing assays reveal new insights into exonic variants of the SLC12A3 gene in Gitelman Syndrome.

open access: yes, 2021
Gitelman syndrome (GS) is a kind of salt-losing tubular disease, most of which is caused by SLC12A3 gene variants, and missense variants account for the majority. Recently, the phenomenon of exon skipping, in which exonic variants disrupt normal pre-mRNA splicing, has been related to a variety of diseases.

Gitelman Syndrome: a Сlinical and Molecular Overview

open access: yesPočki, 2015
Gitelman syndrome (OMIM #263800) is an autosomal recessive renal tubular disorder due to loss of function mutations of SLC12A3 gene, encoding the thiazide-inhibitable, electroneutral Na+-Cl– cotransporter (NCC) of the distal convoluted tubule.

Genes for blood pressure: an opportunity to understand hypertension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Hypertension (HTN) is quantitatively the major cardiovascular risk factor and responsible for ∼50% of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. Blood pressure (BP) is also a classical complex genetic trait with heritability estimates of 30-50%.

Resequencing the whole MYH7 gene (including the intronic, promoter, and 3´ UTR sequences) in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
MYH7 mutations are found in approximately 20% of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) patients. Currently, mutational analysis is based on the sequencing of the coding exons and a few exon-flanking intronic nucleotides resulting in omission of single exon ...
