TL;DR

Re-analysis of human fetal cortex single-cell RNA sequencing data demonstrated that SEMA6A and FLNA are significantly co-expressed in apical radial glia and newborn excitatory neurons, suggesting that SEMA6A is a candidate contributor to neuronal migration defects in 5q22.3-q23.3 deletions.

Elucidating the Role of SET as a Key Contributor to Neurodevelopmental Disability Within the 9q34.11 Deletion Syndrome Interval

Current knowledge on the genotypic and phenotypic spectra of SET-NDD is expanded, and pinpoints a smaller 9q34.11 critical region excluding upstream NDD-associated genes, STXBP1 and SPTAN1, implicating SET as a significant NDD-associated gene.

Clinical and Cytogenomic Characterization of Three Patients With Distal 1q43q44 Deletion: Twin Sisters With a de novo Deletion and a Patient With der(1)t(1;21)(q43;q22.3)mat

Findings further support the role of haploinsufficient genes within the distal 1q43q44 region, particularly AKT3, HNRNPU, and ZBTB18, to the core neurodevelopmental phenotype and highlight the value of high‐resolution genomic analysis for patient characterization.

Phenotypic Expansion of PPP1R12A-Related Syndrome: A Novel Splicing Variant Associated with Hearing Loss and Inner Ear Malformations

The findings suggest that PPP1R12A-related disorders may exhibit a broader phenotypic variability than previously recognized and it is proposed that HL and inner ear malformations may represent novel features associated with this clinical spectrum.
