The Impact of Modifiable Risk Factors on the Endothelial Cell Methylome and Cardiovascular Disease Development by Hashum Sum, Alison C. Brewer

“…Further, the potential mechanisms whereby such risk factors might impact upon the activities and/or specificities of the epigenetic writers and erasers which determine the methylome [the DNA methyl transferases (DNMTs) and Ten Eleven translocases (TETs)] are considered here. Notably, the TET proteins are members of the 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase superfamily which require molecular oxygen (O2) and α-ketoglutarate (α-KG) as substrates and iron-2+ (Fe II) as a cofactor. …”

Hypercalcemia and co-occurring TBX1 mutation in Glycogen Storage Disease Type Ib: case report by Zakaria Kasmi, Imane Ain El Hayat, Zahra Aadam, Abderrahmane Errami, Ibtihal Benhsaien, Jalila EL Bakkouri, Dalal Ben Sabbahia, Meryem Atrassi, Ahmed Aziz Bousfiha, Fatima Ailal

“…Abstract Glycogen Storage Disease Type Ib (GSD-Ib) is a rare autosomal recessive metabolic disorder caused by mutations in SLC37A4, leading to a deficiency in glucose-6-phosphate translocase. This disorder is characterized by impaired glycogenolysis and gluconeogenesis, resulting in clinical and metabolic manifestations. …”
