Clonal hematopoiesis of indeterminate potential (CHIP) is a condition where blood or bone marrow cells carry mutations associated with hematological malignancies. Individuals with CHIP have an increased risk of developing hematological malignancies, atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, and all-cause mortality. Bone marrow transplantation (BMT) of cells carrying CHIP mutations into irradiated mice are useful procedures to investigate the dynamics of clonal expansion and potential therapeutic strategies, but myeloablative conditioning can induce confounding effects.

Objective: Reactivity of microglia, the resident cells of the brain, underlies innate immune mechanisms (e.g., injury repair), and disruption of microglial reactivity has been shown to facilitate psychiatric disorder dysfunctions.

Background: The clinical manifestations of PI4KA-related disorders are characterized by considerable variability, predominantly featuring neurological impairments, gastrointestinal symptoms, and a combined immunodeficiency. The aim of this study was to delineate the novel spectrum of PI4KA variants detected prenatally and to assess their influence on fetal development.
Methods: A thorough fetal ultrasound screening was conducted, supplemented by both antenatal and post-abortion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies.

Alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) is an autosomal disorder that causes liver and lung disease. The risk of developing lung emphysema, chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder and liver cirrhosis is observed in >75 % people affected with a homozygous mutation. Here, we describe the generation of an induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) line from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) isolated from a AATD patient using non viral and non-integrating episomal vectors.

Loeys-Dietz Syndrome (LDS) is a rare autosomal dominant connective tissue disorder characterized by vascular aneurysms, arterial dissections, and distinct craniofacial and skeletal anomalies. This study focuses on generating and characterizing two induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines derived from LDS patients with distinct mutations in the TGFBR1 gene. These two iPSC lines were found to display characteristic iPSC morphology, strong expression of pluripotency markers, typical karyotypes, and the capacity for differentiation into the three germ layers.
