Lithium chloride in vitro treatment shows potential to rescue the neuronal phenotype caused by WDFY3 haploinsufficiency.

We provide a comprehensive phenotypic characterization of loss-of-function (LoF) variants in WDFY3 based on the largest cohort reported to date (n = 32). Our findings define a monogenic disorder marked by neuropsychiatric features (including autism and ADHD), mild to moderate neurodevelopmental delay, and variable brai...

Traffic Jams in the Brain: How Kinesin Dysfunction Shapes Neurodevelopmental Disorders

The development and maintenance of the nervous system depend on a tightly regulated intracellular transport network in which kinesin superfamily (KIF) motor proteins drive microtubule-based delivery of synaptic vesicle precursors, organelles, mRNAs, and signaling components along axons and dendrites. Disruption of this...

Exploring the clinical and mutational spectrum of MORC2-associated disorders.

It is demonstrated that early-onset MORC2-associated disorders segregate into two principal neurological phenotypes: a predominantly neuromuscular form and a central nervous system-predominant form.

Variants leading to ELAVL2 haploinsufficiency cause a neurodevelopmental disorder with prominent cognitive, behavioral, and neurological features.

An integrative study combining Mendelian genetics, clinical and association studies, and animal and molecular modeling supports variants in ELAVL2 as a cause of a neurodevelopmental disorder, with haploinsufficiency as the disease mechanism, and identifies crucial roles of ELAVL2 in neuronal function, cognition, and be...

The genetic architecture of epilepsy across molecular mechanisms and clinical heterogeneity

This review synthesizes contemporary insights into the genetic and molecular pathophysiology of seizures and epilepsy, with emphasis on mechanisms that destabilize excitation–inhibition balance, promote epileptogenesis, and drive pharmacoresistance and supports more refined approaches to epilepsy classification and fut...
