Novel compound heterozygous mutations in the LARS2 gene in a Chinese family with hearing loss.
Neurogenetics
January 2025
Department of Otolaryngology & Head and Neck, Liuzhou Worker's Hospital of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, 156 Heping Road, Liuzhou, 545007, China.
Background: Mutations in the LARS2 gene are correlated with Perrault syndrome, a rare autosomal recessive genetic disorder, that is typically characterized by sensorineural hearing loss and ovarian insufficiency.
Methods: Whole-exome sequencing and mutational analysis were employed to identify hearing loss-causing genes in a Chinese family from the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Clinical phenotypes, audiological data, and color Doppler ultrasound of the family were collected, and a series of computer software were used to analyze the impact of genetic variations on protein structure and function.
Adult-onset vanishing white matter disease due to a novel compound heterozygous EIF2B2 mutation: a case report and brief review.
Neurol Sci
January 2025
Department of Neurology, Guangdong Provincial Key Laboratory of Diagnosis and Treatment of Major Neurological Diseases, National Key Clinical Department and Key Discipline of Neurology, The First Affiliated Hospital, Sun Yat-Sen University, Guangzhou, 510080, China.
Background And Objectives: Vanishing white matter disease (VWMD) is an autosomal recessive leukoencephalopathy caused by mutations in the EIF2B1-5 genes, typically rare in adulthood. We present a case of adult-onset VWMD with a novel EIF2B2 mutation.
Methods: We collected the patient's clinical data, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) results, laboratory tests, imaging features, genetic analysis, and follow-up data over a 4-year period.
A Novel Homozygous Loss-of-Function Variant in GPR156 Delineates Non-syndromic Hearing Loss.
Biochem Genet
January 2025
Department of Dermatology, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT, USA.
Non-syndromic hearing loss (NSHL) is a genetically heterogeneous disorder accounting for almost 70% of the total congenital hearing loss. The implementation of rapid advanced sequencing methods has significantly contributed to the correct molecular diagnosis for several rare genetic disorders, including NHSL. Features of two probands with NHSL were clinically and genetically evaluated.

Background: Peroxisome biogenesis disorders (PBD) affect multiple organ systems. It is characterized by neurological dysfunction, hypotonia, ocular anomalies, craniofacial abnormalities, and absence of peroxisomes in fibroblasts. PBDs are associated with mutations in any of fourteen different genes, which are involved in peroxisome biogenesis.

This research delves into Primary Hyperoxaluria Type 2 (PH2), an autosomal recessive disorder precipitated by a unique case of compound heterozygous deleterious mutations in the GRHPR gene, specifically the intron2/3 c.214-2 T > G and the exon8 c.864-865delTG, leading to a premature stop codon at p.
