CD9+ B Cells Induce T Follicular Helper Cell Apoptosis to Regulate Germinal Center Regression

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A unique subset of CD9+ B cells regulates germinal center B (GC‐B) cell regression by inducing T follicular helper (Tfh) cell apoptosis through multiple signaling pathways, such as ALCAM‐CD6. FOXP1 plays a key role in GC‐B cell differentiation. These findings clarify mechanisms of GC degeneration and termination and offer potential targets for adenoid ...

Transient Sleep Deprivation Induces Persistent Auditory Neuropathy via ROS‐Initiated Neuroinflammation and BK Channel Suppression

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sleep disturbance severity closely tracks hearing loss in a clinical cohort, yet the mechanistic link remains unclear. Acute sleep deprivation is shown to trigger transient cochlear oxidative stress that switches into a self‐sustaining neuroinflammatory state, suppressing BK channels and causing irreversible synaptopathy.

Chronic insomnia remitting after maxillomandibular advancement for mild obstructive sleep apnea: a case series

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2019
Background Chronic insomnia and obstructive sleep apnea are both common sleep disorders. Chronic insomnia is thought to result from stress-related physiologic hyperarousal (somatic arousal) that makes it difficult for an individual to fall or stay asleep.

Proteogenomic Profiling of Idiopathic Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Identifies Sex‐Differential Proteins and Candidate Therapeutic Targets

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
An integrated proteogenomic analysis of 44,137 predominantly European‐ancestry UK Biobank participants aged 40–69 years identifies 12 robust proteins associated with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension. These proteins define a high‐mortality molecular endotype, support early detection and mortality prediction, reveal sex‐differential proteomic ...

An Adult Presentation of KIF11‐Related MCLID Syndrome: Case Report and 40‐Year Follow‐Up

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pathogenic variants in KIF11 are linked to autosomal dominant syndromes with microcephaly, chorioretinopathy, lymphedema, and intellectual disability (MCLID), though adult presentations remain underreported. We report a 42‐year‐old female presenting with a de novo single‐amino acid in‐frame deletion in the KIF11 gene (c.1294_1296del; p ...

ADNP‐Related Helsmoortel–Van der Aa Syndrome: A Review of the Literature and Clinical Recommendations for Assessment and Monitoring

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT ADNP‐related Helsmoortel–Van der Aa syndrome (ADNP‐related HVDAS) is a single gene form of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) caused by pathogenic sequence variants in the activity‐dependent neuroprotective protein (ADNP) gene. In addition to ASD, ADNP‐related HVDAS is associated with a wide range of cognitive, behavioral, and physical health ...

Dual Aberrant Splicing Caused by an Apparently Missense CHD7 Variant, c.5273A>G (p.Asp1758Gly), in CHARGE Syndrome

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT CHARGE syndrome is a rare congenital disorder primarily attributed to heterozygous pathogenic variants of the CHD7 gene. Most pathogenic CHD7 variants are loss‐of‐function (LoF) variants, whereas the interpretation of missense variants remains challenging in the absence of functional evidence for their pathogenicity.

The Influence of a Mandibular Advancement Plate on Polysomnography in Different Grades of Obstructive Sleep Apnea

open access: yeseJournal of Oral Maxillofacial Research, 2015
Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a mandibular advancement device on different grades of obstructive sleep apnea using a relatively simple test for the apnea-hypopnea index to determine if a mandibular device will be ...
