A Path to Implement Precision Child Health Cardiovascular Medicine. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Congenital heart defects (CHDs) affect approximately 1% of live births and are a major source of childhood morbidity and mortality even in countries with advanced healthcare systems. Along with phenotypic heterogeneity, the underlying etiology of CHDs is

Mitochondrial DNA disorders in neuromuscular diseases in diverse populations

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Neuromuscular features are common in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) disorders. The genetic architecture of mtDNA disorders in diverse populations is poorly understood. We analysed mtDNA variants from whole‐exome sequencing data in neuromuscular patients from South Africa, Brazil, India, Turkey and Zambia. In 998 individuals, there were two definite

Multiplexed imaging of tumor immune microenvironmental markers in locally advanced or metastatic non‐small‐cell lung cancer characterizes the features of response to PD‐1 blockade plus chemotherapy

open access: yesCancer Communications, Volume 42, Issue 12, Page 1331-1346, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Although programmed cell death 1 (PD‐1) blockade plus chemotherapy can significantly prolong the progression‐free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in first‐line settings in patients with driver‐negative advanced non‐small‐cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the predictive biomarkers remain undetermined.

Pharmacogenomics in children: advantages and challenges of next generation sequencing applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Pharmacogenetics is considered as a prime example of how personalized medicine nowadays can be put into practice. However, genotyping to guide pharmacological treatment is relatively uncommon in the routine clinical practice. Several reasons can be found

Whole-Exome Sequencing of an Exceptional Longevity Cohort [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journals of Gerontology: Series A, 2018
Abstract Centenarians represent a unique cohort to study the genetic basis for longevity and factors determining the risk of neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The estimated genetic contribution to longevity is highest in centenarians and super-cententenarians, but few genetic variants have been shown to ...

Relationship of cognitive decline with glucocerebrosidase activity and amyloid‐beta 42 in DLB and PD

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and Parkinson's disease (PD) share clinical, pathological, and genetic risk factors, including GBA1 and APOEε4 mutations. Biomarkers associated with the pathways of these mutations, such as glucocerebrosidase enzyme (GCase) activity and amyloid‐beta 42 (Aβ42) levels, may hold potential as predictive ...

LINC00323 variant is associated with increased risk of essential tremor

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract Essential tremor (ET) is a common adult movement disorder, with accumulating evidence suggesting that genetic factors primarily account for ET risk. However, replication studies on the genetic variants have yielded inconsistent results. In our case–control study, we show that the LINC00323 variant, identified in a European GWAS study, is ...

De novo mutations in SMCHD1 cause Bosma arhinia microphthalmia syndrome and abrogate nasal development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Bosma arhinia microphthalmia syndrome (BAMS) is an extremely rare and striking condition characterized by complete absence of the nose with or without ocular defects.

UDP‐glucose dehydrogenase variants cause dystroglycanopathy

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
Abstract UDP‐glucose dehydrogenase (UGDH) variants have been associated with hypotonia, developmental delay, and epilepsy. We report the first pathologic evidence of dystroglycanopathy in siblings with UGDH variants. Both presented around 6 months with developmental delay and elevated creatinine kinase.
