We report a new Japanese family with tricho-rhino-phalangeal syndrome type III (TRPS III) who have a missense mutation (Arg908Gln) of theTRPS1 gene (TRPS1) in affected individuals of the family. This study supports the notion that TRPS III results from missense mutations in exon 6 of TRPS1.

Association Analysis of Rare CNTN5 Variants With Autism Spectrum Disorder in a Japanese Population.

Background: Contactin-5 (CNTN5), a neural adhesion molecule involved in synaptogenesis and synaptic maturation in the auditory pathway, has been associated with the pathophysiology of autism spectrum disorder (ASD), particularly hyperacusis. To investigate the role of rare CNTN5 variants in ASD susceptibility, we performed resequencing and association analysis in a Japanese population.
Methods: We resequenced the CNTN5 coding regions in 302 patients with ASD and prioritized rare putatively damaging variants.

Congenital heart defects and skeletal malformations syndrome (CHDSKM) is a rare autosomal dominant genetic disorder characterized by specific clinical features, including dysmorphic facial traits, congenital heart defects, skeletal abnormalities, joint issues, and failure to thrive. The novelty of this case lies in the identification of a novel mutation in the ABL1 gene, expanding the genetic spectrum associated with this syndrome. A 5.

Aims: The goal of this study was to explore new candidate genes and pathogenesis mechanisms of nonsyndromic hereditary gingival fibromatosis (nsHGF) and to provide an experimental basis for the diagnosis of nsHGF.
Methods: Whole-exome sequencing (WES) was performed on peripheral blood DNA from three nsHGF family members to screen for new candidate genes, and Sanger sequencing and related databases were used to verify the pathogenicity of this gene deficiency. Moreover, the effects of gene deficiency on the biological characteristics of human gingival fibroblasts (HGFs) were evaluated via cell proliferation assays, extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition detection, cell apoptosis and cell cycle assessment, cell migration and gene expression analyses.
