Background: Wilson's disease (WD) results from pathogenic ATP7B gene variations, causing copper accumulation mainly in the liver, brain, and kidneys.

Objectives: In India, despite studies on ATP7B variants, WD often goes undiagnosed, with the prevalence, carrier rate, and mutation spectrum remaining unknown.

Methods: A multicenter study examined genetic variations in WD among individuals of Indian origin via whole exome sequencing.

Objective Patient expectations in the Australian healthcare system are for coordinated, collaborative practice. There is a need for education institutions, health services, accreditation authorities, and consumers to work together to achieve this goal. As part of a larger body of work, we sought to understand how these stakeholders contribute to the development of collaborative healthcare practice.

Purpose: Multiple Endocrine Neoplasia (MEN) is a group of familial cancer syndromes that encompasses several types of endocrine tumors differentiated by genetic mutations in RET, MEN1 and CDKN1B genes. Accurate diagnosis of MEN subtypes can thus be performed through genetic testing. However, MEN variants remain largely understudied in Indian populations.

Article Synopsis
  • Lumpy skin disease (LSD) is a viral illness that primarily affects cattle, caused by a specific poxvirus from the capripoxvirus genus.
  • The text outlines a detailed protocol for sequencing the LSD virus genome using an amplicon-based method, including steps like DNA extraction and library preparation.
  • This protocol is adaptable to various Illumina sequencing platforms and offers a fast and scalable approach for researchers; for more detailed information, refer to the work by Bhatt et al.

Article Synopsis
  • * This study aimed to assess the effectiveness of whole-genome sequencing (WGS) in diagnosing patients with suspected cardiac channelopathies who previously tested negative using whole exome sequencing (WES).
  • * Analysis of 25 patients revealed three pathogenic genetic variations and several variations of unknown significance, highlighting the potential advantages of WGS over WES in identifying these heart disorders.
