AI Article Synopsis

  • Human iPSC cell line FAMRCi009-A was created from a patient with restrictive cardiomyopathy and a specific genetic variant (FLNC p.Val2264Met).
  • The cell line was generated using non-integrative Sendai viruses, resulting in iPSCs that have a normal karyotype and express key pluripotency markers.
  • These iPSCs demonstrated the ability to differentiate into three germ layers in vitro, making them valuable for studying filaminopathies in greater detail.

Article Abstract

Human iPSC cell line FAMRCi009-A was generated from a patient with restrictive cardiomyopathy and congenital myopathy carrying FLNC p.Val2264Met genetic variant. Patient-specific peripheral blood mononuclear cells were reprogrammed using non-integrative Sendai viruses. Generated iPSC lines showed normal karyotype, expressed pluripotency markers and exhibited trilineage differentiation potential in vitro. The reported iPSC lines could be used for a deeper study of filaminopathies.

Human succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase is a mitochondrial enzyme fundamental in the neurotransmitter γ-aminobutyric acid catabolism. It catalyzes the NAD-dependent oxidative degradation of its derivative, succinic semialdehyde, to succinic acid. Mutations in its gene lead to an inherited neurometabolic rare disease, succinic semialdehyde dehydrogenase deficiency, characterized by mental and developmental delay.

Family Genetic Risk Communication and Reverse Cascade Testing in the BabySeq Project.

Genet Med

December 2024

Division of Genetics and Genomics, Boston Children's Hospital, Boston, MA; The Manton Center for Orphan Disease Research, Boston Children's Hospital, Boston, MA; Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA.

Purpose: Genomic sequencing of newborns (NBSeq) can initiate disease surveillance and therapy for children, and may identify at-risk relatives through reverse cascade testing. We explored genetic risk communication and reverse cascade testing among families of newborns who underwent exome sequencing and had a risk for autosomal dominant disease identified.

Methods: We conducted semi-structured interviews with parents of newborns enrolled in the BabySeq Project who had a pathogenic or likely-pathogenic (P/LP) variant associated with an autosomal dominant (AD) childhood- and/or adult-onset disease returned.

Real-world experience of diagnosis, disability, and daily management in parents of children with different genetic developmental and epileptic encephalopathies: a qualitative study.

Ann Med

December 2025

Research Group of Humanities and Qualitative Research in Health Science of Universidad Rey Juan Carlos (Hum&QRinHS), Department of Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy, Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, Universidad Rey Juan Carlos, Alcorcón, Spain.

Purpose: This study describes the experience of parents of children with developmental and epileptic encephalopathies (DEE) and how the disease impacts their daily lives.

Materials And Methods: A descriptive qualitative study was conducted using purposeful sampling. Twenty-one parents of children with DEEs caused by SCN1A, KCNQ2, CDKL5, PCDH19, and GNAO1 variants were included.

Background: Substance use disorders are multifaceted conditions influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. Serotonergic pathways are known to be involved in substance use disorder susceptibility, with genetic markers within serotonin receptor genes identified as potential risk factors.

Methods: To further explore this relationship, we conducted a study to investigate the association between several polymorphisms in five serotonin receptor genes (, , ) and substance use disorders (SUD) in Jordanian males by sequencing genotypes in 496 SUD patients and 496 healthy controls.
