Abstract

Inactivating mutations of SDHD, which is mapped to 11q23 and encodes the cybS subunit of succinate dehydrogenase, predispose to hereditary paraganglioma (PGL) and/or pheochromocytoma. So far no disease was shown to occur in case of maternal transmission of a SDHD mutation, suggesting the existence of genomic imprinting. A hypothetic model, involving the loss of the maternal copy of a tumor suppressor gene mapped to 11p15 in the tumoral tissue, has been proposed to explain this mode of inheritance. Our objective was to investigate the possibility of maternal transmission of SDHD-linked PGL. A three-generation family carrying the SDHD W43X mutation was studied at the clinical, pathological, and genetical levels. The germline's mutation was probably inherited from the grandfather. In the second generation, three carriers (two females and one male), who had the same at risk 11q13-q23 haplotype, developed multiple cervical PGLs. In the third generation, one boy received the mutation from his mother and developed a glomus tympanicum PGL at 11 yr. He shared only the 11q23 haplotype with the other affected members of the family. Methylation analysis of the differentially methylated region upstream of the maternally expressed H19 gene, ...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.
