Diagnóstico clínico del síndrome Smith-Lemli-Opitz tipo I. Informe de Caso [PDF]
With a low incidence, the relatively recent finding that the Smith-Lemli-Opitz syndrome is caused by a disorder of cholesterol metabolism, increases its interest as an expression of a new path for better knowledge of monogenic syndromes with multiple ...

Molecular Landscape in Limb Anomalies: Diagnostic Yield and New Candidate Genes
In 132 individuals with limb anomalies, diagnostic yield was 36% (47/132), including 25 novel variants, three cases with new phenotypes, and two candidate loci, HOXA11 and a small 2q31.1 deletion. Mouse data and exome‐wide analysis, key in identifying the candidate loci, represent an important opportunity for gene discovery.

Inborn Errors of Metabolism Associated With Autism Spectrum Disorders: Approaches to Intervention
Increasing evidence suggests that the autism spectrum disorder (ASD) may be associated with inborn errors of metabolism, such as disorders of amino acid metabolism and transport [phenylketonuria, homocystinuria, S-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase ...

Cholesterol Deficiency Directs Autophagy‐Dependent Secretion of Extracellular Vesicles
Inhibition of cholesterol biosynthesis within models of rare disease and cancer causes increased release of small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) with distinct biological properties. Mechanistically, cholesterol depletion leads to impaired autophagic flux, redirection of autophagosomes to late endosomes, and subsequently increased sEV secretion ...

Common arterial trunk and ventricular non-compaction in Lrp2 knockout mice indicate a crucial role of LRP2 in cardiac development [PDF]
Lipoprotein-related receptor protein 2 (LRP2) is important for development of the embryonic neural crest and brain in both mice and humans. Although a role in cardiovascular development can be expected, the hearts of Lrp2 knockout (KO) mice have not yet ...
