Objectives: Biallelic HPDL variants have been identified as the cause of a progressive childhood-onset movement disorder, with a broad clinical spectrum from severe neurodevelopmental disorder to juvenile-onset pure hereditary spastic paraplegia type 83. This study aims at delineating the geno- and phenotypic spectra of patients with HPDL-related disease, quantitatively modelling the natural history, and uncovering genotype-phenotype associations.
Methods: A cross-sectional analysis of 90 published and one novel case was performed, employing a Human Phenotype Ontology-based approach.

Originally developed to meet the challenges of genomic data deluge, GeniePool emerged as a pioneering platform, enabling efficient storage, accessibility, and analysis of vast genomic datasets, enabled due to its data lake architecture. Building on this foundation, GeniePool 2.0 advances genomic analysis through the integration of cutting-edge variant databases, such as CHM13-T2T, AlphaMissense, and gnomAD V4, coupled with the capability for variant co-occurrence queries.

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.

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.

Kell is one of the most complex blood group systems, with a highly polymorphic genetic background. Extensive allelic variations in the gene affect the encoded erythrocyte surface protein Kell. Genetic variants causing aberrant splicing, premature termination of protein translation, or specific amino acid exchanges lead to a variety of different phenotypes with altered Kell expression levels or changes in the antigenic properties of the Kell protein.
