Giant Renal Angiomyolipomas and Pulmonary Lymphangioleiomyomatosis: Follow-up Report after More than a Decade
Saudi J Kidney Dis Transpl. 2023 Nov 1;34(6):671-675. doi: 10.4103/sjkdt.sjkdt_324_21. Epub 2024 May 9.ABSTRACTRenal angiomyolipomas (AMLs) and pulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) are two major presentations of tuberous sclerosis (TS), an autosomal dominant multisystem disorder. Renal AMLs can lead to life-threatening complications like hemorrhage and cause progressive renal failure requiring dialysis and kidney transplant. mTOR inhibitors showed promising results in TS patients with renal AMLs, LAM, and subependymal giant cell astrocytomas. This case report is a follow-up of a patient we reported in 2010 with giant A...

Impaired GABAergic regulation and developmental immaturity in interneurons derived from the medial ganglionic eminence in the tuberous sclerosis complex
AbstractGABAergic interneurons play a critical role in maintaining neural circuit balance, excitation –inhibition regulation, and cognitive function modulation. In tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC), GABAergic neuron dysfunction contributes to disrupted network activity and associated neurological symptoms, assumingly in a cell type-specific manner. This GABAergic centric study focuses on identifyin g specific interneuron subpopulations within TSC, emphasizing the unique characteristics of medial ganglionic eminence (MGE)- and caudal ganglionic eminence (CGE)-derived interneurons. Using single-nuclei RNA sequencing in TSC ...

Germline findings in cancer predisposing genes from a small cohort of chordoma patients
CONCLUSION: We report here a chordoma cohort of 24 families with newly found germline genetic mutations in cancer predisposing genes. We discuss implications for genetic counseling, clinical management, and universal germline genetic testing for cancer patients with solid tumors.PMID:38700789 | DOI:10.1007/s00432-024-05706-5 (Source: Clin Med Res)
