Generation of a human induced pluripotent stem cell line (FDCHi012-A) from a patient with DYRK1A-related intellectual disability syndrome carrying DYRK1A mutation (c.1024G > T).

DYRK1A haploinsufficiency causes a neurodevelopmental syndrome termed DYRK1A-related intellectual disability syndrome which is associated with a range of symptoms including microcephaly, epileptic seizures, and autism spectrum disorder. Here, we generated an induced Pluripotent Stem Cell (iPSC) line with a de novo missense mutation (DYRKIA c.1024G > T) from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells of a patient with DYRK1A-related intellectual disability syndrome.

Primary carnitine deficiency: Estimation of prevalence in Chinese population and insights into newborn screening.

Primary carnitine deficiency (PCD) caused by pathogenic variants in the solute carrier family 22 member 5 () gene is a rare autosomal recessive disease that results in defective fatty acid oxidation. PCD can be detected through tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), but transplacental transport of free carnitine from mothers may cause false negatives or positives during newborn screening (NBS). This study aimed to analyze the genetic characteristics of and estimate the prevalence of PCD in the Chinese population, providing useful information for NBS and genetic counseling.
