Itavastatin and resveratrol increase triosephosphate isomerase protein in a newly identified variant of TPI deficiency.

Triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) deficiency (TPI Df) is an untreatable glycolytic enzymopathy that results in hemolytic anemia, progressive muscular impairment and irreversible brain damage. Although there is a 'common' mutation (TPIE105D), other pathogenic mutations have been described. We identified patients who were compound heterozygous for a newly described mutation, TPIQ181P, and the common TPIE105D mutation.

Recurrent deletions and duplications of chromosome 2q11.2 and 2q13 are associated with variable outcomes.

Copy number variation (CNV) in the long arm of chromosome 2 has been implicated in developmental delay (DD), intellectual disability (ID), autism spectrum disorder (ASD), congenital anomalies, and psychiatric disorders. Here we describe 14 new subjects with recurrent deletions and duplications of chromosome 2q11.2, 2q13, and 2q11.
