Why does infantile epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) occur with a variety of underlying conditions and why does it respond to adrenocorticotrophin hormone (ACTH)/corticosteroids? Our scoping review summarizes five hypotheses from the literature: gene/epigenetic regulation, stress/HPA axis activation, neuroinflammation/immune function, altered neuronal ...

Alteration of WWOX in human cancer, a clinical view [PDF]
WWOX gene is located in FRA16D, the highly affected chromosomal fragile site. Its tumor suppressor activity has been proposed on a basis of numerous genomic alterations reported in chromosome 16q23.3–24.1 locus. WWOX is affected in many cancers, showing as high as 80% loss of heterozygosity in breast tumors.

WWOX somatic ablation in skeletal muscles alters glucose metabolism
Objective: WWOX, a well-established tumor suppressor, is frequently lost in cancer and plays important roles in DNA damage response and cellular metabolism.

SUMOylation regulates LKB1 localization and its oncogenic activity in liver cancer [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Even though liver kinase B1 (LKB1) is usually described as a tumor suppressor in a wide variety of tissues, it has been shown that LKB1 aberrant expression is associated with bad prognosis in Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC).

This cohort of 2563 patients is one of the largest published epilepsy genetic studies, achieved in a clinical routine setup. The anonymized clinical and genetic information are provided as a resource for future research. Detailed per‐syndrome and per‐gene analysis have been performed. ABSTRACT Background Epileptic disorders are a heterogeneous group of

Nuclear hyaluronidase 2 drives alternative splicing of CD44 pre-mRNA to determine profibrotic or antifibrotic cell phenotype [PDF]
The cell surface protein CD44 is involved in diverse physiological processes, and its aberrant function is linked to various pathologies such as cancer, immune dysregulation, and fibrosis.

Abstract Objective A large proportion of pediatric epilepsies have an underlying genetic etiology. Limited studies have explored the efficacy of whole genome sequencing (WGS) in a clinical setting. Our academic–clinical center implemented clinical whole exome sequencing (WES) in 2014, then transitioned to WGS from 2015.

Modeling WWOX Loss of Function in vivo: What Have We Learned?
The WW domain–containing oxidoreductase (WWOX) gene encompasses a common fragile sites (CFS) known as FRA16D, and is implicated in cancer. WWOX encodes a 46kDa adaptor protein, which contains two N-terminal WW–domains and a catalytic domain at its C ...

Genome‐wide association of tau neuroimaging and plasma biomarkers in adults with Down syndrome
Abstract INTRODUCTION Plasma biomarkers in Down syndrome (DS) accurately detect Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathology. This study aimed to identify genetic loci associated with plasma tau biomarkers (phosphorylated tau [p‐tau]181, p‐tau217, total tau [t‐tau]) and tau positron emission tomography (PET) in DS. METHODS We examined 375 people with DS from the
