Article Abstract

Multigene panels can analyze high and moderate/intermediate penetrance genes that predispose to breast cancer (BC), providing an opportunity to identify at-risk individuals within affected families. However, considering the complexity of different pathogenic variants and correlated clinical manifestations, a multidisciplinary team is needed to effectively manage BC. A classification of pathogenic variants included in multigene panels was presented in this narrative review to evaluate their clinical utility in BC. Clinical management was discussed for each category and focused on BC, including available evidence regarding the multidisciplinary and integrated management of patients with BC. The integration of both genetic testing and counseling is required for customized decisions in therapeutic strategies and preventative initiatives, as well as for a defined multidisciplinary approach, considering the continuous evolution of guidelines and research in the field.

Regional Genetic Study: Monosymptomatic Nocturnal Enuresis and Array Technology.

Urol J

September 2025

Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, Faculty of Medicine, Recep Tayyip Erdogan University, Rize, TURKIYE.

Purpose: This study aimed to investigate the genetic heterogeneity of primary monosymptomatic nocturnal enuresis (PMNE) and assess potential genetic variants contributing to its etiology.

Materials And Methods: A total of 92 children aged 5-15 years with a positive family history of PMNE were evaluated. All patients underwent detailed urological and nephrological assessments to exclude organic causes.

The peptidoglycan-binding domain of a mycobacterial prophage-encoded LysinB reveals diverse approaches for domain conservation in hydrolases.

Mycobacteriophage-encoded LysinB enzymes target mycolyl ester linkages in mycolyl-arabinogalactan-peptidoglycan of mycobacterium hosts and generally exhibit a globular architecture. Here, we present the structural and functional characterization of a novel Mycobacterium fortuitum prophage-encoded modular LysinB (LysinB_MF), which contains the α/β hydrolase domain and a distinct peptidoglycan-binding domain (PGBD). The enzyme's active site features the conserved Ser-Asp-His catalytic triad common to esterases and forms a funnel-like topology.

Bardet-Biedl Syndrome (BBS) is a rare autosomal recessive ciliopathy characterized by genetic heterogeneity. Despite significant progress in understanding the BBSome-coding genes associated with ciliopathies, the pathogenesis linked to mutations in chaperonin-coding genes (BBS6, BBS10, and BBS12) remains poorly defined. This study aims to confirm the genetic diagnosis of BBS and elucidate the pathological mechanisms in causative genes of BBS10 and BBS12.

Parkinson's disease is a prevalent neurodegenerative disease, in which genetic mutations in many genes play an important role in its pathogenesis. Among these, a mutation in the PINK1 gene, a mitochondrial-targeted serine/threonine putative kinase 1 that protects cells from stress-induced mitochondrial dysfunction, is implicated in autosomal recessive Parkinsonism. However, the exact etiology is not well understood.
