The E3 Ligase NEDD4L Prevents Colorectal Cancer Liver Metastasis via Degradation of PRMT5 to Inhibit the AKT/mTOR Signaling Pathway

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Neural precursor cell expressed developmentally down‐regulated gene 4‐like (NEDD4L) prevents colorectal cancer liver metastasis through ubiquitination and degradation of protein arginine methyltransferase 5 (PRMT5). PRMT5 degradation attenuates the methylarginine of AKT1.

Children With 22.Q.11.2 Deletion Syndrome: Sleep‐Disordered Breathing and Management

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS) are predisposed to obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) due to an abnormal craniofacial anatomy with pharyngeal hypotonia, retrognathia, micrognathia, and glossoptosis. The aim of the study was to describe the prevalence and management of OSA in a cohort of children with 22q11DS.
