Novel mutation in the TCOF1 gene in a patient with Treacher Collins syndrome

open access: yesPediatria Polska, 2014
AbstractTreacher Collins syndrome (TCS) is an autosomal dominant disorder of craniofacial development. The syndrome is characterized by a similar phenotype: micrognathia, microtia, midface hypoplasia, cleft lip and palate. The estimated incidence rate is 1/50000 live births.

Oto-facial syndrome and esophageal atresia, intellectual disability and zygomatic anomalies: expanding the phenotypes associated with EFTUD2 mutations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Mutations in EFTUD2 were proven to cause a very distinct mandibulofacial dysostosis type Guion-Almeida (MFDGA, OMIM #610536). Recently, gross deletions and mutations in EFTUD2 were determined to cause syndromic esophageal atresia (EA), as ...

Tissue Engineered Human Elastic Cartilage From Primary Auricular Chondrocytes for Ear Reconstruction

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Despite over three decades of research, no tissue‐engineered solution for auricular reconstruction in microtia patients has reached clinical translation. The key challenge lies in generating functional elastic cartilage ex vivo. Here, we integrate synergistic cell‐biomaterial strategies to engineer auricular grafts with mechanical and histological ...

Associations between variants of FADS genes and omega-3 and omega-6 milk fatty acids of Canadian Holstein cows [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
BACKGROUND: Fatty acid desaturase 1 (FADS1) and 2 (FADS2) genes code respectively for the enzymes delta-5 and delta-6 desaturases which are rate limiting enzymes in the synthesis of polyunsaturated omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids (FAs). Omega-3 and-6 FAs

Large deletions encompassing the TCOF1 and CAMK2A genes are responsible for Treacher Collins syndrome with intellectual disability [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Human Genetics, 2013
Mandibulofacial dysostosis is part of a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of disorders of craniofacial development, which lead to malar and mandibular hypoplasia. Treacher Collins syndrome is the major cause of mandibulofacial dysostosis and is due to mutations in the TCOF1 gene.

Prenatal Tympanic Ring Anomaly Without Microtia: A Subtle Clue Toward Severe Early‐Onset Monogenic Disorders

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the genetic etiologies and clinical significance of fetal tympanic ring abnormalities detected during second‐trimester ultrasound in the absence of microtia. Method Between November 2019 and June 2024, we examined the fetal tympanic rings of 10,277 unselected pregnant women during the 20–22 weeks of morphology ...

Co‐occurrence of orofacial clefts and clubfoot phenotypes in a sub‐Saharan African cohort: Whole‐exome sequencing implicates multiple syndromes and genes

open access: yesMolecular Genetics & Genomic Medicine, 2021
Background Orofacial clefts (OFCs) are congenital malformations of the face and palate, with an incidence of 1 per 700 live births. Clubfoot or congenital talipes equinovarus (CTEV) is a three‐dimensional abnormality of the leg, ankle, and feet that ...
