Article Abstract

Patients carrying Acyl-CoA dehydrogenase 9 (ACAD9) mutations reported to date mainly present with severe hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and isolated complex I (CI) dysfunction. Here we report a novel ACAD9 mutation in a young girl presenting with severe hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, isolated CI deficiency and interestingly multiple respiratory chain complexes assembly defects. We show that ACAD9 analysis has to be performed in first intention in patients presenting with cardiac hypertrophy even in the presence of multiple assembly defects.

Congenital disorders of glycosylation (CDG) are a heterogeneous group of inherited metabolic diseases (IMD) characterized by defects in the synthesis and modification of glycoproteins and glycolipids. One of these disorders is ATP6AP1-CDG, a rare X-linked disease with approximately 30 cases reported so far. Symptoms associated with ATP6AP1-CDG include immunodeficiency, liver dysfunction, and neurological manifestations.

Primary microcephaly, a rare congenital condition characterized by reduced brain size, occurs due to impaired neurogenesis during brain development. Through whole-exome sequencing, we identified compound heterozygous loss-of-function mutations in CENTRIN 3 (CETN3) in a 5-year-old patient with primary microcephaly. As CETN3 has not been previously linked to microcephaly, we investigated its potential function in neurodevelopment in human pluripotent stem cell-derived cerebral organoids.

Objective: Conventional penile venous surgery for erection restoration and surgery for penile augmentation have been controversial. Based on de novo penile fibrovascular assembly, we report innovative penile venous stripping (PVS) and factual penile girth enhancement (FPGE).

Methods: From 2013 to 2023, refractory impotence and dysmorphia prompted 31 patients to seek PVS and FPGE, and all of them were confirmed with veno-occlusive dysfunction.

The accumulated knowledge on the biology of the HIV-1 virus has led to the emergence of technologies that exploit the architecture of retroviruses and their integration or vectorization properties. This field of study constitutes retroviral vectorology, democratized in laboratories by the use of lentiviral vectors. By hijacking retroviral assembly, other systems are emerging and are increasingly mentioned in recent literature.

Altered nuclear morphology, one of the characteristics of cancer cells, is often indicative of tumor prognosis. While reactive oxygen species (ROS) are known to induce nuclear morphology changes, mechanisms underlying these effects remain elusive, particularly regarding nuclear assembly. We hypothesized that mitotic cells might exhibit increased susceptibility to ROSinduced nuclear deformation due to the dynamic nature of nuclear envelope during mitosis, i.
