Front Genet. 2022 Mar 3;13:736988. PMID: 35309143, doi: 10.3389/fgene.2022.736988.Brief Summary: This molecular study highlights a novel mechanism of action of Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase 1 (MAP3K1) in the development of testicular dysgenesis.MAP3K1 is one of the most common genes that has been identified to cause 46, XY DSD and variants are attribu...

Nat Commun. 2020 Aug 13;11(1):4063. doi: 10.1038/s41467-020-17890-2. PMID: 32792525.These researchers proposed the heterogeneity of hypothalamic neural progenitor cells. Other than traditional hypothalamic radial glial (hRG) cells, which are predominantly located in the ventricular zone, there are additional basal progenitors in the mantle zone, which are named as hypothalamic mantle zo...

Brief Summary: This exome-wide association study conducted in the UK Biobank cohort (n=454 787) and in two non-European cohorts, the Mexican MCPS cohort (n=141 046) and the Pakistani PGR cohort (n=37 800), identified a association between rare protein-truncating variants (PTVs) in the APBA1 and the BSN genes and adult-onset obesity, suggesting two new genes as possible causes for monogenic obesity. Rare PTVs in BSN were also associated with Type 2 di...
