We report the identification of mutations in a non-syndromic autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis (ARCI) in a new gene mapping within a previously identified locus on chromosome 19p12-q12, which has been defined as LI3 in the OMIM database (MIM 604777). The phenotype usually presents as lamellar ichthyosis and hyperlinearity of palms and soles. Seven homozygous mutations including five missense mutations and two deletions were identified in a new gene, FLJ39501, on chromosome 19p12 in 21 patients from 12 consanguineous families from Algeria, France, Italy and Lebanon.

Gemcitabine (G) and cisplatin (P) are active reference agents in patients with non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Ifosfamide (I) has also been approved for NSCLC treatment. This phase I trial aimed to determine the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), maximum tolerated dose [maximum tolerated dosage (MTD)], and recommended dose (RD) of a GIP combination in patients with advanced/metastatic NSCLC.

X-linked lymphoproliferative disease is a rare inherited immunodeficiency in which affected males present abnormal responses to Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection. The gene defective in X-linked lymphoproliferative disease, SH2D1A (also named SAP or DSHP), has been identified and shown to code for an adapter protein that interacts with signaling lymphocytic activation molecule (SLAM) and several other members of the CD2 superfamily. SH2D1A is mutated in no more than 60% of X-linked lymphoproliferative disease patients.
