Variants in KIF1A are associated with hereditary spastic paraplegia (SPG30), which can manifest in both pure and complex forms. We describe a Japanese family with a novel KIF1A variant presenting with a complex form of SPG30. Patient 1, a 69-year-old woman, experienced progressive gait disturbance due to spastic paraparesis and cerebellar atrophy, and intellectual disability.

Different sheep breeds show distinct phenotypic plasticity in fat deposition in the tails. The genetic background underlying fat deposition in the tail of sheep is complex, multifactorial, and may involve allele-specific expression (ASE) mechanism to modulate allelic expression. ASE is a common phenomenon in mammals and refers to allelic imbalanced expression modified by cis-regulatory genetic variants that can be observed at heterozygous loci.

Focal cortical dysplasia (FCD) II is a cortical malformation characterized by cortical architectural abnormalities, dysmorphic neurons, with or without balloon cells. Here, we systematically explored the pathophysiological role of the GATOR1 subunit NPRL3 variants including a novel mutation from iPSCs derived from one FCD II patient. Three FCD II children aged 0.

-Related Neurodevelopmental Disorder and Multiple Haemangiomas: A Novel Phenotypic Trait?

Pediatr Rep

December 2024

Pediatric and Rare Diseases Clinic, Microcitemico Hospital "A. Cao", Department of Medical Sciences and Public Health, University of Cagliari, 09124 Cagliari, Italy.

Background: Houge-Janssens syndrome 1 is a condition with onset in early childhood caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants in the gene, which encodes a B56 regulatory subunit of the serine/threonine protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A). There is evidence that the PP2A-PPP2R5D complex is involved in regulating the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)/AKT signalling pathway, which is crucial for several cellular processes, including the pathogenesis and progression of haemangiomas.

Case Presentation: We report the first -related neurodevelopmental disorder case from Sardinia, a child with transient hypoglycaemia, facial dysmorphisms, and multiple haemangiomas.
