The mutation E280A in PSEN1 (presenilin-1) is the most common cause of early-onset familial Alzheimer's Disease (fAD). It presents autosomal dominant inheritance and frequently leads to the manifestation of the disease in relatively young individuals. Here we report the generation of one PSEN1 E280A iPSC line derived from an early-onset patient. OriP/EBNA1-based episomal plasmids containing OCT3/4, SOX2, KLF4, L-MYC, LIN28, BCL-xL and shp53 were used to reprogram oral mucosa fibroblasts. The iPSC line generated has normal karyotype, carry the E280A mutation, is free of plasmid integration, express high levels of pluripotency markers and can differentiate into all three germ layers.

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is one of the leading neurodegenerative diseases that affect the human population. Several hypotheses are in the pipeline to establish the commencement of this disease; however, the amyloid hypothesis is one of the most widely accepted ones. Amyloid plaques are rich in Amyloid Beta (Aβ) proteins, which are found in the brains of Alzheimer's patients.

We conducted the largest sequencing characterization of potentially disease-causing, protein-altering and splicing mutations in 710 cases and 11,827 controls from genetically predicted African or African admixed ancestries. We explored copy number variants (CNVs) and runs of homozygosity (ROHs) in prioritized early onset and familial cases.

Background: Bullying, encompassing physical, psychological, social, or educational harm, affects approximately 1 in 20 United States teens aged 12-18. The prevalence and impact of bullying, including online bullying, necessitate a deeper understanding of risk and protective factors to enhance prevention efforts. This study investigated the key risk and protective factors most highly associated with adolescent bullying victimization.

Joubert Syndrome (JS) is a congenital cerebellar ataxia typically inherited in an autosomal recessive pattern, although rare X-linked inheritance can occur. It is characterized by hypotonia evolving into ataxia, global developmental delay, oculomotor apraxia, breathing dysregulation, and multiorgan involvement. To date, there are 40 causative genes implicated in JS, all of which encode proteins of the primary cilium.
