The clinical and molecular spectrum of AGO2-associated Lessel-Kreienkamp neurodevelopmental syndrome
Abstract Background Pathogenic variants in AGO2 ,encoding a central component of the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC), cause the neurodevelopmental disorder Lessel-Kreienkamp syndrome (LESKRES). The variant spectrum and associated molecular mechanisms underlying phenotypic va...

Early Longitudinal Brain Network Changes in Huntington's Disease Before Clinical Motor Onset
Abstract Background Longitudinal studies of seed‐based functional connectivity (SBFC) in young adult Huntington's disease gene‐expanded (HDGE) individuals are rare, and none, to our knowledge, have examined adult cohorts decades from predicted clinical motor diagnosis. Objectives...

Abstract Collision tumours, defined by the coexistence of two histologically distinct neoplasms within a single organ, are rare and typically arise from different cell lineages. We report a unique case of a 64-year-old woman with a history of oestrogen receptor (ER)–positive, HER...
