Genetics of Dizygotic Twinning: A Feasibility Study for a Biobank [PDF]

open access: yesTwin Research, 2004
To locate the genes that make a substantial contribution to variation in natural dizygotic twinning in humans, large-scale studies are needed. New studies should not stop at DNA genotyping, but collect material that allow gene-expression analysis, transcriptomics, proteomics and endocrinology.

Hemophilia A: An Ideal Disease for Prenatal Therapy

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hemophilia A (HA) is the most common inherited coagulation defect. Current state‐of‐the‐art treatment consists of frequent administration of prophylactic infusions of coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) protein or bispecific antibodies that replace the cofactor function of FVIIIa to maintain hemostasis. However, these treatments are far from ideal,

Alterations in Metabolites Associated With Umbilical Cord Blood in Monozygotic Twins Discordant for Congenital Heart Disease

open access: yesPediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
This study found that the metabolomic signature of umbilical venous cord blood in congenital heart disease (CHD) differs from that of healthy monozygotic (MZ) co‐twins. Dysregulation of metabolic pathways like glucose, lipid, and amino acid metabolism, along with altered metabolites, helps understand CHD predisposition.

A genetically informed cross‐lagged twin study of the longitudinal association between addiction‐related behaviors and obesity

open access: yesAddiction, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and aims Addiction‐related behaviors, such as loss of control eating (LOC), cigarette smoking and alcohol consumption, have been associated with high body mass index (BMI). This study aimed to assess genetic and environmental contributions to these associations over time.
