    Abstract Introduction: Mendelian disorders of the epigenetic machinery are a growing group of disorders exhibiting several overlapping clinical features that are probably due to common abnormalities at the epigenomic level, which lead to downstream convergence at the transcriptomic level.
    Case presentation: Here, we report a new case of short stature, brachydactyly, intellectual developmental disability, and seizures (SBIDDS) syndrome with a severe ocular phenotype and hypogonadism.
    Conclusion: Similarities and connections with other mendelian disorders of the epigenetic machinery are highlighted, confirming SBIDDS' enrolment as a new spoke of the epigenetic machinery wheel.

    Abstract This review provides the current laboratory criteria for the detection and evaluation of the possible causes of alteration of non-concentrated industrial derivatives of tomatoes (peeled tomatoes, pulps, purees, sauces, and fillets), packaged in coated or uncoated tinplate cans. We discuss how the product alterations are typically the consequence of technological errors either in the can production, or in the storage process, or in the product sterilization. The described procedures include the quantitative determination of the distribution of gases (H

    Abstract Cancer is a leading cause of death worldwide and involves an oxidative stress mechanism. The transcription factor Nrf2 has a crucial role in cytoprotective response against oxidative stress, including cancer growth and progression and therapy resistance. For this reason, inhibitors of Nrf2 are new targets to be studied. Traditional plant-based remedies rich in phytochemicals have been used against human cancers and phenolic compounds are known for their chemopreventive properties. This comprehensive review offers an updated review of the role of phenolic compounds as anticancer agents due to their action on Nrf2 inhibition. In addition, the role of naturally-occurring bioactive anticancer agents are covered in the clinical applications of polyphenols as Nrf2 inhibitors. Video Abstract.

    Abstract Post-zygotic mosaicism is a well-known biological phenomenon characterized by the presence of genetically distinct lineages of cells in the same individual due to post-zygotic de novo mutational events. It has been identified in about 13% of Cornelia de Lange (CdLS) syndrome patients with a molecular diagnosis, an unusual high frequency. Here, we report the case of a patient affected by classic CdLS harboring post-zygotic mosaicism for two different likely pathogenic variants at the same nucleotide position in NIPBL. Double somatic mosaicism has never been reported in CdLS and only rarely recognized in human diseases. Possible pathogenetic mechanisms are discussed.

    Abstract DYRK1A-related intellectual disability is a recently described syndrome characterized by microcephaly, global developmental delay, impaired speech development, and distinctive facial features, which let to define it as a recognizable syndrome. Here we report four new patients of different ethnicity, broadening the clinical phenotype of the condition and highlighting how ethnic influences in the facial appearance could make it less recognizable.

    Abstract Introduction: Medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) is a rare type of neuroendocrine tumor that produces a hormone called calcitonin (CT). Thyroidectomy is the preferred treatment for MTC, as chemotherapy has been shown to have limited effectiveness. Targeted therapy approaches are currently being used for patients with advanced, metastatic MTC. Several studies have identified microRNAs, including miR-21, as playing a role in the development of MTC. Programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) is a tumor suppressor gene that is an important target of miR-21. Our previous research has shown that high levels of miR-21 are associated with low PDCD4 nuclear scores and high CT levels. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of this pathway as a novel therapeutic target for MTC.
    Methods: We used a specific process to silence miR-21 in two human MTC cell lines. We studied the effect of this anti-miRNA process alone and in combination with cabozantinib and vandetanib, two drugs used in targeted therapy for MTC. We analyzed the effect of miR-21 silencing on cell viability, PDCD4 and CT expression, phosphorylation pathways, cell migration, cell cycle, and apoptosis.
    Results: Silencing miR-21 alone resulted in a reduction of cell viability and an increase in PDCD4 levels at both mRNA and protein levels. It also led to a reduction in CT expression at both mRNA and secretion levels. When combined with cabozantinib and vandetanib, miR-21 silencing did not affect cell cycle or migration but was able to enhance apoptosis.
    Conclusion: Silencing miR-21, although not showing synergistic activity with TKIs (tyrosine kinase inhibitors), represents a potential alternative worth exploring as a therapeutic target for MTC.
