Introduction: Understanding the etiology and risk factors of lung cancer (LC) is the key to developing scientific and effective prevention and control strategies for LC. CYP4B1 genetic polymorphism has been reported to be associated with susceptibility to various diseases. We aimed to explore the association between CYP4B1 genetic variants and LC susceptibility.
Methods: One thousand three hundred thirty-nine participants were recruited to perform an association analysis through SNPStats online software. Statistical analysis of this study was mainly completed by SPSS 22.0 software. False-positive report probability analysis (FPRP) to detect whether the positive findings were noteworthy. Finally, the interaction of SNP-SNP in LC risk was evaluated by multi-factor dimensionality reduction.
Results: We found evidence that missense variants in CYP4B1 (rs2297810, rs4646491, and rs2297809) are associated with LC susceptibility. In particular, genotype GA of CYP4B1-rs2297810 was significantly associated with an increased risk of LC in both overall and stratified analyses (genotype GA: OR (95% CI) = 1.35 (1.08-1.69), p = 0.010). CYP4B1-rs4646491 (overdominant: OR (95% CI) = 1.30 (1.04-1.62), p = 0.023) and CYP4B1-rs2297809 (genotype CT: OR (95% CI) = 1.26 (1.01-1.59), p = 0.046) are also associated with an increased risk of LC. FPRP analysis showed that all positive results in this study are noteworthy findings CONCLUSION: Three missense variants in CYP4B1 (rs2297810, rs4646491, and rs2297809) are associated with increasing risk of LC.

Objective: To investigate the clinical phenotype and molecular pathogenic mechanism of a hereditary coagulation factor V deficiency (FⅤD) family.
Methods: A phase I assay was used to measure coagulation factors II, V, VII, VIII, IX, X, Ⅺ, Ⅻ (FⅡ∶C, FⅤ∶C, FⅦ∶C, FⅧ∶C, FⅨ∶C, FⅩ∶C, FⅪ∶C, FⅫ∶C), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and prothrombin time (PT) to determine the clinical phenotype and molecular pathogenesis of F VD. Prothrombin time (PT) were used for phenotypic identification; high-throughput exome sequencing was applied to screen the whole gene variants, and Sanger sequencing was used to verify the suspected variants in gene; MutationTaster, PolyPhen-2 bioinformatics software was used to predict the pathogenicity of the variants, ClustalX software was used to analyze the amino acid conservatism, and PyMol software was used to simulate the model of the mutant protein.

Background/aim: Adult granulosa cell tumor (aGCT) is a rare and challenging ovarian tumor due to its unpredictable recurrence and its associated increased risk of breast and endometrial cancer. Identifying and describing molecular alterations in tumors has become common with the advent of high-throughput sequencing. However, DNA sequencing in rare tumors, such as aGCT, often lacks statistical power due to the limited number of cases in each study, thereby clinical implications of DNA alterations are difficult to interpretate.

KAT6A syndrome or Arboleda-Tham Syndrome (ARTHS; OMIM #616268) is a syndromic neurodevelopmental disorder mainly presenting with variable degrees of intellectual disability (ID) and developmental delay (DD), especially speech delay, hypotonia and autism spectrum disorders/behavioral problems. Multiple organ-systems including eyes, heart, gastrointestinal and neurological system can be involved. Other phenotypic features with a suggested association to KAT6A include immune dysfunction and pituitary anomalies.

Hepatic fibrinogen storage disease is an uncommon autosomal dominant hereditary illness marked by hypofibrinogenemia and the accumulation of variant fibrinogen in the hepatic endoplasmic reticulum. We present an asymptomatic 15-month-old male with elevated liver enzymes. Test results indicate hypofibrinogenemia.

RICTOR is a key component of the mTORC2 signaling complex which is involved in the regulation of cell growth, proliferation and survival. RICTOR is highly expressed in neurons and is necessary for brain development. Here, we report eight unrelated patients presenting with intellectual disability and/or development delay and carrying variants in the RICTOR gene.
