Developmental pleiotropy revealed by mosaic heterozygous Snrpb deletion underlies CCMS-like axial skeletal defects

Biology

TL;DR

It is indicated that Snrpb dysfunction disrupts the early specification of axial skeletal identity without overtly altering somite patterning, establishing the first in vivo model of CCMS-associated axial skeletal abnormalities and indicating that Snrpb dysfunction contribute to disease pathogenesis.

Autosomal recessive HOXA3 deficiency causes congenital athymia and laryngeal malformation.

BACKGROUND Approximately 10% of patients with Severe Combined Immunodeficiency (SCID) phenotype lack a known genetic cause. In particular, the molecular basis of thymic defects is poorly understood. Homeobox (HOX) genes encode conserved transcription factors that control spatial body development. The function of human...

Systematic genotype-phenotype mapping and transcriptomic analyses highlight SEMA6A as a candidate for neuronal migration defects in 5q22-q23 deletions.

Re-analysis of human fetal cortex single-cell RNA sequencing data demonstrated that SEMA6A and FLNA are significantly co-expressed in apical radial glia and newborn excitatory neurons, suggesting that SEMA6A is a candidate contributor to neuronal migration defects in 5q22.3-q23.3 deletions.

Two Unrelated Families With Noncoding Duplications Upstream of MSX2 Refine the Critical Regulatory Region Likely Involved in Cranial Bone Development and a Cleidocranial Dysplasia‐Like Phenotype

The findings establish a causal link between MSX2 upstream duplications and CCD‐like phenotypes, emphasizing the role of epigenetic mechanisms and TAD structures in regulating skeletal development.

TCF4 at the crest of development: a zebrafish model to explore craniofacial and gastrointestinal defects in Pitt-Hopkins syndrome

Light is shed on TCF4 as a key regulator of neural crest-derived lineages that contribute to craniofacial and Enteric Nervous System development and a new perspective on two major clinical features of PTHS is provided.

Loss of wbp11 causes multi-system developmental defects: a zebrafish model of VACTERL association

Introduction VACTERL association is a congenital disorder characterized by the non-random co-occurrence of vertebral, anal, cardiac, tracheo-esophageal, renal, and limb anomalies. WBP11 has been identified as a candidate causative gene; however, existing heterozygous Wbp11 knockout mice recapitulate only a subset of th...
