The first case of a point pathogenic variant in the RREB1 gene in Noonan-like Rasopathy
This study reinforces previous data on RREB1 haploinsufficiency as the driver of a new Noonan-like RASopathy variant, which includes intellectual disability, delayed motor skills, short stature, short neck, and distinctive facial dysmorphisms as key clinical indicators. These findings shed light on this RREB1-related syndrome and underscore the necessity for further investigation into the functional consequences of RREB1 mutations.PMID:38332451 | DOI:10.1111/cge.14496 (Source: Clinical Genetics)

Perineuronal net deglycosylation associates with tauopathy ‐induced gliosis and neurodegeneration
Brain perineuronal nets (PNNs) are vital for neurocircuit stability and changes in their abundance and composition have been linked to Alzheimer's disease (AD) progression. In this work, we investigated age-associated PNN changes in transgenic mice with tauopathy-related AD neuropathology. 9-month-old PS19 (P301S) mice exhibited changes in PNN chondroitin sulfate-glycosaminoglycan (CS-GAG) composition and abundance, but not the underlying CS proteoglycan (CSPG) core proteins, in association with pTau, gliosis, and neurodegeneration. In contrast, Tau4RTg2652 mice showed stable PNNs despite pTau accumulation, emphasizing the...

Chronic health conditions and adolescents' social connectedness
This study investigated associations between chronic developmental/behavioral and physical health conditions and social connectedness of adolescents using rich population-based data from a national U.S. birth cohort study. Potentially disabling health conditions were reported by caregivers and categorized by our team as developmental/behavioral or physical. Social connectedness was assessed using a validated scale that measured adolescents' reports of positive social connectedness across relevant contexts (family, friends, school). Of the 3,207 adolescents included, over one third had at least one chronic health condition....

Rare Congenital Dissecting Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm in a Child with Noonan Syndrome: A Case Report
We present a rare case of congenital thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) complicated with dissection in a nine-year-old girl with Noonan syndrome and atrial septal defect. She presented with rapid breathing and upper respiratory tract symptoms. Chest X-ray revealed a huge upper mediastinum with cardiomegaly. Echocardiogram showed possible ascending TAA. Computerized tomography angiogram of the aorta revealed huge aortic root-ascending TAA with small aortic dissection. Despite immediate treatment, the patient passed away due to severe airway compromise.PMID:38269208 | PMC:PMC10806284 | DOI:10.5001/omj.2023.66 (Source: Oman Medical Journal)

Restraining of glycoprotein VI- and integrin α2β1-dependent thrombus formation by platelet PECAM1
Cell Mol Life Sci. 2024 Jan 18;81(1):44. doi: 10.1007/s00018-023-05058-2.ABSTRACTThe platelet receptors, glycoprotein VI (GPVI) and integrin α2β1 jointly control collagen-dependent thrombus formation via protein tyrosine kinases. It is unresolved to which extent the ITIM (immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif) receptor PECAM1 and its downstream acting protein tyrosine phosphatase PTPN11 interfere in this process. Here, we hypothesized that integrin α2β1 has a co-regulatory role in the PECAM1- and PTPN11-dependent restraint of thrombus formation. We investigated platelet activation under flow on collagens with ...

Floating-Harbor Syndrome in a Korean Patient with Short Stature and Early Puberty: A Case Report
We present a case of an 11-year-old Korean girl who was initially suspected of having Noonan-like syndrome but was later diagnosed with Floating-Harbor syndrome. The patient exhibited short stature, developmental language delay, dysmorphic facial features, and early puberty. Targeted exome sequencing revealed a heterozygous mutation, c.7303C>T (p.Arg2435Ter), in the SRCAP gene, confirming a diagnosis of Floating-Harbor syndrome. She responded well to human recombinant growth hormone and gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist, effectively suppressing bone maturation and improving her height SDS from -4.6 to -2.4.P...

Language profiles in Noonan Syndrome - A multiple case study
This study aims to provide a comprehensive description of the linguistic profiles of children and adolescents with NS, focusing on vocabulary, grammar skills, phonological memory skills, working memory skills, and visuospatial skills. Sixteen participants aged 6-16 took part in the study. The findings reveal substantial variation in the affected linguistic areas, with some participants demonstrated normal findings, while inconsistent and overall weak language skills were observed in a large subgroup of participants.PMID:38226429 | DOI:10.1080/02699206.2023.2298976 (Source: Clinical Linguistics and Phonetics)
