Abstract: Incomplete penetrance characterizes the two most frequent inherited optic neuropathies, Leber's Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON) and dominant optic atrophy (DOA), due to genetic errors in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and the nuclear DNA (nDNA), respectively.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/aogs.13963
Abstract: Genetic testing platforms such as chromosomal microarray analysis and next generation sequencing often detect genetic variants of incomplete penetrance and variable expressivity. The difficulty to determine the exact genotype-phenotype correlations and to predict the clinical… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/genes8110309
Abstract: Monogenic forms of diabetes may account for 1–5% of all cases of diabetes, and may occur in the context of syndromic presentations. We investigated the case of a girl affected by insulin-dependent diabetes, diagnosed at… read more here.
