Primary aldosteronism (PA), caused by bilateral adrenal hyperplasia or aldosteronomas, is the leading cause of endocrine hypertension, with an estimated prevalence of 10%-20% in patients in tertiary hospitals.
Complex genomic rearrangements (CGRs) involve large-scale genomic alterations with multiple breakpoints and are implicated in genetic diseases such as malformation syndromes, intellectual disability and neurodevelopmental disorders.
Researchers from Nanjing First Hospital reported that glutamine-fructose-6-phosphate transaminase 2 (GFPT2) may be considered a diagnostic and prognostic marker of mesothelioma.
Recent evidence has suggested CDGSH iron-sulfur domain-containing protein 3 (CISD3) plays a tumorigenic role and is a key member in mitochondrial functioning. Additionally, the methylation changes surrounding the CISD3 gene plus its expression patterns in several cancer types suggest its potential as a biomarker and therapeutic target.
Autoimmune polyendocrinopathy-candidiasis-ectodermal dystrophy (APECED) is a monogenic autoimmune disease caused by biallelic genetic variants in the AIRE gene, encoding autoimmune regulator protein.
Research into the regulation of gene expression experienced a significant breakthrough with the discovery of microRNA, small RNA molecules that do not code for proteins but control their translation. This finding has earned its discoverers – Victor Ambros and Gary Ruvkun – the 2024 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine “for the discovery of microRNA and its role in post-transcriptional gene regulation.”
