Gollop–Wolfgang complex (GWC) is a rare congenital limb anomaly characterized by tibial aplasia with femur bifurcation, ipsilateral bifurcation of the thigh bone, and split hand and monodactyly of the feet, resulting in severe and complex limb...

Critical illness-related corticosteroid insufficiency (CIRCI) can cause hemodynamic instability in neonates after congenital heart surgery with manifestations that increase morbidity and potential mortality. We retrospectively reviewed neonates who u...

The availability of the complete genome of an organism plays a crucial role in the comprehensive analysis of the entire biological entity. Despite the rapid advancements in sequencing technologies, the inherent complexities of genomes inevitably lead...

Pericytes (PCs) are located surrounding the walls of small blood vessels, particularly capillaries and microvessels. In addition to their functions in maintaining vascular integrity, participating in angiogenesis, and regulating blood flow, PCs also...

A disease associated with malfunction of the MYH3 gene is characterised by scoliosis, contractures of the V fingers, knees and elbows, dysplasia of the calf muscles, foot deformity and limb length asymmetry. The aim of this study was to identify the...

CircRNAs are a class of non-coding RNAs able to regulate gene expression at multiple levels. Their involvement in physiological processes, as well as their altered regulation in different human diseases, both tumoral and non-tumoral, is well document...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are two crucial classes of transcripts that belong to the major group of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs). These RNA molecules have significant influence over diverse molecular processes due to their cruc...

Lafora disease (LD) is a genetic disease affecting beagles, resulting in seizures in combination with other signs. The aim of this study was to describe the clinical signs of LD in beagles with different NHLRC1 genotypes. One hundred and sixty-six be...

Cervical cancer is a widespread malignancy among women, leading to a substantial global health impact. Despite extensive research, our understanding of the basic molecules and pathogenic processes of cervical squamous cell carcinoma is still insuffic...

GNAS-activating somatic mutations give rise to Fibrous Dysplasia/McCune–Albright syndrome (FD/MAS). The low specificity of extra-skeletal signs of MAS and the mosaic status of the mutations generate some difficulties for a proper diagnosis. We...
