DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-13012-z

Abstract: Assisted reproductive therapies (ART) have become increasingly common worldwide and numerous retrospective studies have indicated that ART-conceived children are more likely to develop the overgrowth syndrome Beckwith-Wiedemann (BWS). In bovine, the use of ART can… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Cold Spring Harbor molecular case studies"

DOI: 10.1101/mcs.a006267

Abstract: Alterations in epigenetic regulators are increasingly recognized as early events in tumorigenesis; thus, patients with acquired or inherited variants in epigenetic regulators may be at increased risk for developing multiple types of cancer. DNMT3A overgrowth… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Clinical and Experimental Dermatology"

DOI: 10.1111/ced.13154

Abstract: Neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1; OMIM 162200), a dominantly inherited multitumor syndrome, results from mutations in the Neurofibromin 1 (NF1) gene. We present the case of a Hungarian woman with the clinical phenotype of NF1 over… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "JCI insight"

DOI: 10.1172/jci.insight.167074

Abstract: Overgrowth syndromes can be caused by pathogenic genetic variants in epigenetic writers, such as DNA and histone methyltransferases. However, no overgrowth disorder has previously been ascribed to variants in a gene that acts primarily as… read more here.
