Abstract

Although a few familial forms of congenital hypothyroidism (CH) due to thyroid dysgenesis (TD) have been reported, this disorder is usually considered to be sporadic. Recently, we reported that 2% of CH patients with TD have a positive familial history. The aim of this study was to describe the clinical characteristics of these familial cases and to compare them with sporadic cases. We used the French national population-based registry of the first 19-yr screening program, which included 14,416,428 screened neonates with a 100% recovery rate. Familial history of CH with TD was investigated by means of a questionnaire sent to the pediatricians (n = 592) who provided ongoing clinical care for the 4049 CH patients detected during this period, including 2863 CH cases due to TD. Information was obtained from 73% of these pediatricians who were following up 2472 CH patients with TD (86%). In all, 67 patients with a positive family history of CH with TD were referred, belonging to 32 multiplex families (i.e. including at least 2 affected members). Families were identified with ectopic gland (n = 12), athyreosis (n = 7), or both (n = 13). Comparison of familial with isolated cases showed a similar etiological diagnosis distribution of ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
