A genetic and historical perspective on the origins of keratitis fugax hereditaria

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate the genetic and genealogical background of keratitis fugax hereditaria (KFH), a periodic corneal disease caused by the heterozygous pathogenic variant c.61G>C in the NLRP3 gene. KFH is characterized by recurrent unilateral autoinflammatory attacks alternating between the eyes and permanent corneal opacities.

A novel myopathy with autophagic vacuoles associated with biallelic variants in CLN8

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
We describe a novel adult‐onset myopathy with autophagic vacuoles and characteristic features of ceroid lipofuscinosis associated with biallelic CLN8 variants, seizures, and muscle weakness. Autophagosomal/lysosomal deposition of curvilinear, autofluorescent material containing the mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate (ATP) synthase membrane subunit c ...

Biallelic Truncating Variant in LRGUK Is Associated With Severe Multiple Morphological Abnormalities of the Sperm Flagella and Sperm Nuclear Defects in Humans

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
A homozygous truncating variant in LRGUK results in loss of the LRGUK protein and causes multiple morphological abnormalities of the flagella (MMAF), disrupted axonemal architecture, central pair defects, abnormal chromatin organization, and severe male infertility, establishing LRGUK as a novel human infertility gene.

Surviving Males With PORCN Variants: Expanding the Clinical, Molecular, and Mechanistic Spectrum

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Pathogenic PORCN variants are compatible with male survival in both mosaic and non‐mosaic states, expanding the FDH/PONGOS spectrum and improving diagnosis and genetic counseling. ABSTRACT Pathogenic variants in PORCN cause focal dermal hypoplasia (FDH/Goltz syndrome), an X‐linked dominant disorder historically considered lethal in males, with milder ...
