Purpose: Congenital isolated adrenocorticotropic hormone deficiency (CIAD) is an autosomal recessive disorder. This study identifies novel TBX19 variants for CIAD patients, explores its possible effect mechanism at the structural, functional and protein levels, and guides clinicians better understand the condition.
Methods: The clinical characteristics of three CIAD children were summarized.

Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) biosynthesis defect 11 (GPIBD11), part of the heterogeneous group of congenital disorders of glycosylation, is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in . This rare disorder has previously been described in only 12 patients. We report four novel patients: two sib fetuses with congenital anomalies affecting several organs, including the heart; a living girl with tetralogy of Fallot, global developmental delay, behavioral abnormalities, and atypic electroencephalography (EEG) without epilepsy; a girl with early-onset, treatment-resistant seizures, developmental regression, and recurrent infections, that ultimately passed away prematurely due to pneumonia.

The extract of the rhizome of Makino has potential anti-cancer and anti-inflammatory effects in many diseases, such as cancer. However, the biological functions of falcarindiol (FAD) in breast cancer are not fully understood. This study proved the anti-inflammatory and anti-cancer effects of FAD in breast cancer.

Background/objectives: Loss-of-function chymotrypsin C (CTRC) variants increase the risk for chronic pancreatitis (CP) by reducing protective pancreatic CTRC activity. Variants in the 5' upstream region that includes the promoter might affect CTRC expression but have not been investigated to date. The aim of the present study was to address this knowledge gap.

SUMOylation involves covalent attachment of small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) proteins to specific lysine residues on target proteins and regulates various aspects of their function. Sentrin-specific proteases (SENPs) are key players in both the conjugation reaction of SUMO proteins to their targets and the subsequent deconjugation of SUMO-conjugated substrates. Here, we provide the first comprehensive prenatal description of a lethal syndrome linked to a novel homozygous stop-gain variant in SENP7 c.
