Spontaneous gene glitches linked to autism risk with older dads, April 4, 2012 News Release - National Institutes of Health (NIH)

nih.gov — “Researchers have turned up a new clue to the workings of a possible environmental factor in: fathers were four times more likely than mothers to transmit tiny, spontaneous mutations to their children with the disorders. Moreover, the number of such transmitted genetic glitches increased with paternal age. The discovery may help to explain earlier evidence linking autism risk to older fathers.View full resource at nih.gov

Advanced-Stage Neuroblastoma Diagnosis Age Linked To Genetic Mutation - QualityPoint Technologies

qualitypointtech.net — “In children and young adults with advanced-stage neuroblastoma (a cancerous tumor that develops from nerve tissue), researchers have identified that certain variations of the gene ATRX are associated with age at diagnosis. The study is published in the March 14 issue of JAMA. In children, neuroblastoma is the most prevalent extracranial (outside the cranium) solid tumor. The disease is responsible for 15% of all cancer-related deaths in children...View full resource at qualitypointtech.net

New Genetic Studies Suggest Why Autism Is More Common In Boys Than Girls | Care2 Causes

care2.com — “Three new studies in Neuron reports that hundreds of spontaneous genetic mutations have been linked to autism. Such CBS News describes the findings as a shocker, previous research has indicated that de novo or spontaneous gene mutations can be linked to the neurodevelopmental disorder. As Time magazine says, the new studies differ from previous genetic studies, which looked at families with at least two autistic children; such families may represent cases in which inherited genetic mutations mayView full resource at care2.com

Nephrology: New gene linked to kidney disease

sciencedaily.com — “Nephronophthisis (NPHP) is the most common genetic cause of kidney failure in children. Ten causative genes (NPHP1-NPHP9 and NPHP11), all of which generate proteins that localize to a cellular complex known as the primary cilia-centrosome complex, have been identified previously. A team of researchers has now identified an association between mutations in the XPNPEP3 gene and an NPHP-like nephropathy in two consanguineous families, one in northern Finland and one in Turkey.View full resource at sciencedaily.com
