Heterozygous Variants in LRP1 Cause a Neurodevelopmental Disorder With Congenital Heart Defects
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.ABSTRACT LRP1 encodes the low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor‐related protein 1 (LRP1), a transmembrane protein involved in endocytosis and activation of multiple signaling pathways. LRP1 variants have been implicated in the pathogenesis of congenital heart defects (CHD), Alzheimer's disease, and neurodevelopmental disorders (NDD).

Patient and Family Reported Clinical Picture of IRF2BPL‐Related Disorders
American Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT IRF2BPL‐related disorder is a neurodevelopmental disorder caused by heterozygous variants in the IRF2BPL (Interferon Regulatory Factor 2 Binding Protein‐Like) gene. The few reports available in the literature suggest that common symptoms include developmental delay, intellectual disability, and developmental regression.

Annals of the Child Neurology Society, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Introduction GRIA2 encodes the GluA2 ionotropic α‐amino‐3‐hydroxy‐5‐methyl‐4‐isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptor subunit. Pathogenic GRIA2 variants cause epilepsy, developmental delay, and neurobehavioral disorders. Characterizations of clinical features, including seizure types and their treatments, in patients with GRIA2‐related ...

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.Abstract The 15q11.2 microdeletion is a chromosomal condition associated with a broad epileptic phenotype. It is differentiated from Angelman syndrome, which is typically a larger maternal deletion in an overlapping area. We describe a patient with a 15q11.2 microdeletion that has clinical and EEG biomarker features similar to those seen in Angelman ...
