Complicated Spastic Paraparesis: Study of a Patient With a De Novo Pathogenic Variant in ELOVL1

International Journal of Developmental Neuroscience, Volume 86, Issue 3, May 2026.
A de novo ELOVL1 variant causes syndromic spastic paraparesis with congenital ichthyosis, cerebellar signs and white matter abnormalities. Long‐term clinical and MRI follow‐up showed mild motor and neuroradiological progression with preserved intelligence and subtle cognitive efficiency decline, supporting the hypothesis of a primary neuronal disease ...

Carrier screening in the reproductive setting—Are there medical implications for the heterozygote?—A guide for clinicians

Pregnancy, Volume 2, Issue 3, May 2026.
Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

HTLV‐1 Tax Reshapes the DNA‐Binding Pattern of Transcription Factor IRF4 and Disrupts Host Gene Regulation

Cancer Science, Volume 117, Issue 5, Page 1497-1509, May 2026.
Proteomic mapping of Tax complexes in HTLV‐1–infected T‐cells identified IRF4 as a Tax interactor. Chromatin profiling showed Tax reprograms IRF4 occupancy with H3K27ac gains at super‐enhancers; Tax–IRF4 co‐expression altered chromatin accessibility and transcription, and ATL‐associated IRF4 mutants partially phenocopied these changes. ABSTRACT Human T‐
