Generation of a GPR146 knockout human induced pluripotent stem cell line (ITXi001-A-1)

open access: yesStem Cell Research, 2022
Dyslipidemia is a key modifiable causal risk factor involved in the development of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease. Recently, the G protein-coupled receptor 146 (GPR146), a member of the G-coupled protein receptors’ family, has been shown to be a ...

The IL-15 / sIL-15Rα complex modulates immunity without effect on asthma features in mouse

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2020
Background Interleukin 15 (IL-15) is a growth and modulating factor for B, T lymphocytes and natural killer cells (NK). Its action on innate and adaptive immunity is modulated by its alpha chain receptor (IL-15Rα).

Urine-sample-derived human induced pluripotent stem cells as a model to study PCSK9-mediated autosomal dominant hypercholesterolemia

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2016
Proprotein convertase subtilisin kexin type 9 (PCSK9) is a critical modulator of cholesterol homeostasis. Whereas PCSK9 gain-of-function (GOF) mutations are associated with autosomal dominant hypercholesterolemia (ADH) and premature atherosclerosis ...

Familial screening in case of acute myocarditis reveals inherited arrhythmogenic left ventricular cardiomyopathies

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, 2020
Aims Several data suggest that acute myocarditis could be related to genetic variants involved in familial cardiomyopathies, particularly arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy, but the management of patients with acute myocarditis and their families regarding ...

The Brugada syndrome: a rare arrhythmia disorder with complex inheritance

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2016
For the last ten years, applying new sequencing technologies to thousands of whole exomes has revealed the high variability of the human genome. Extreme caution should thus be taken to avoid misinterpretation when associating rare genetic variants to ...
