Bernard Soulier Syndrome should be suspected in patients with bleeding disorder symptoms and significant family history, where consanguineous marriages are common. Diagnosis can be confirmed using a ristocetin test and a peripheral blood smear.

Constitutional platelet disorders have become better understood since Bernard and Soulier first described a case in 1948. Their diagnosis can also be challenging due to overlap in clinical presentation and lab findings with platelet type von Willebrand. Bernard-Soulier syndrome is a disorder caused by GPIb receptor mutations that decrease its affinity for von Willebrand factor resulting in reduced platelet function and macrothrombocytopenia.

Background:  Megakaryocytes (MK) from Bernard-Soulier syndrome (BSS) induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) yielded reduced numbers but increased sizes of platelets. The molecular mechanisms remain unclear. This study aims to determine roles of signaling molecules involved in this process.

Nontargeted screening (NTS) utilizing liquid chromatography electrospray ionization high-resolution mass spectrometry (LC/ESI/HRMS) is increasingly used to identify environmental contaminants. Major differences in the ionization efficiency of compounds in ESI/HRMS result in widely varying responses and complicate quantitative analysis. Despite an increasing number of methods for quantification without authentic standards in NTS, the approaches are evaluated on limited and diverse data sets with varying chemical coverage collected on different instruments, complicating an unbiased comparison.

Bernard-Soulier syndrome (BSS) is an inherited platelet function disorder caused by mutations in the genes that encode the glycoprotein (GP) Ibα and GPIbβ subunits, as well as the GPIX subunit in the GPIbIX complex, which is located on the platelet surface and has roles in platelet adhesion and activation. Patients with autosomal recessively inherited biallelic BSS have a homozygous or compound heterozygous expression in the GPIbα, GPIbβ, and GPIX subunits of the GPIbIX complex. Patients with autosomal dominantly inherited monoallelic BSS have a heterozygous expression in only the GPIbα and GPIbβ subunits of the GPIbIX complex.

Objective: There is currently scarce data on the electroclinical characteristics of epilepsy associated with synapsin 1 (SYN1) pathogenic variations. We examined clinical and electro-encephalographic (EEG) features in patients with epilepsy and SYN1 variants, with the aim of identifying a distinctive electroclinical pattern.

Methods: In this retrospective multicenter study, we collected and reviewed demographic, genetic, and epilepsy data of 19 male patients with SYN1 variants.
