DNA damage and repair: underlying mechanisms leading to microcephaly

Jessica Honorato Ribeiro, Nazlican Altinisik, Nicholas Rajan, Mieke Verslegers, Sarah Baatout, Jay Gopalakrishnan, Roel Quintens

Summary: DNA-damaging agents and endogenous DNA damage continuously threaten genome integrity. The DNA damage response (DDR) mechanisms play a crucial role in repairing lesions and preventing mutations, especially in brain development. Defects in DNA repair pathways can lead to neurological disorders such as microcephaly. Genetic mutations, exposure to ionizing radiation, and intrauterine infections can cause microcephaly by impairing DNA repair pathways. This review discusses the importance of DDR in normal brain development and the mechanisms and exposures that can result in microcephaly.

Summary: Autosomal primary microcephaly (MCPH) is a heterogenetic disorder affecting brain size, with patients showing reduced head circumference and potential intellectual disability. A novel pathogenic DNA change in the ASPM gene and a recurrent nonsense mutation were identified in Pakistani families, highlighting the importance of premarital screening for MCPH susceptibility. Increased awareness of genetic mutations can aid in counseling and prevention of MCPH in related populations.

Novel compound heterozygous mutation in STAMBP causes a neurodevelopmental disorder by disrupting cortical proliferation

Meixin Hu, Huiping Li, Zhuxi Huang, Dongyun Li, Ying Xu, Qiong Xu, Bo Chen, Yi Wang, Jingxin Deng, Ming Zhu, Weijun Feng, Xiu Xu

Summary: Mutations in the STAMBP gene are associated with global developmental delay, microcephaly, and capillary malformation, but the functional and phenotypic characteristics of these mutations require further elucidation. A novel pathogenic mutation in STAMBP was identified in this study, which impairs the proliferation of neural stem cells and leads to microcephaly.

A recurrent de novo variant in NUSAP1 escapes nonsense-mediated decay and leads to microcephaly, epilepsy, and developmental delay

Alisa Mo, Emuna Paz-Ebstein, Shira Yanovsky-Dagan, Abbe Lai, Hagar Mor-Shaked, Tal Gilboa, Edward Yang, Diane D. Shao, Christopher A. Walsh, Tamar Harel

Summary: NUSAP1 is a cell cycle-dependent protein that plays key roles in mitotic progression, spindle formation, and microtubule stability. Mutations in NUSAP1 have been linked to microcephaly, severe developmental delay, brain abnormalities, and seizures. Our study identified a recurrent, de novo heterozygous variant in NUSAP1 in two unrelated individuals with these phenotypes. We propose that pathogenic variants in NUSAP1 may lead to microcephaly possibly through an underlying defect in neural progenitor cells.

Brickley, Mariana de Carvalho Leal Gouveia, Regina Coeli Ramos, Maria Angela Wanderley Rocha, Thalia Velho Barreto de Araujo, Sophie Helena Eickmann, Laura Cunha Rodrigues, Jeyse Polliane de Oliveira Soares Bernardes, Maria Helena Teixeira Pinto, Karina Polo Norte Danda Soares, Claudia Marina Tavares de Araujo, Maria de Fatima Pessoa Militao-Albuquerque, Ana Celia Oliveira dos Santos

Summary: This study found that oropharyngeal dysphagia (OPD) is more frequently present in children with severe brain damage associated with Zika-related microcephaly, compared to children with mild or undetectable abnormalities from prenatal Zika virus exposure. Children with microcephaly also showed more anatomic and functional abnormalities in the stomatognathic system. There was a high agreement between caregiver reports of OPD and clinical swallowing assessment, indicating the importance of caregiver reports in diagnosing OPD and referring children for rehabilitation.

The allosteric mechanism leading to an open-groove lipid conductive state of the TMEM16F scramblase

George Khelashvili, Ekaterina Kots, Xiaolu Cheng, Michael Levine, Harel Weinstein

Summary: TMEM16F is a phospholipid scramblase in the TMEM16 family, which is activated by Ca2+ ions. This study reveals an allosteric mechanism that leads to an open-groove state of the protein, allowing phospholipid scrambling. The opening of the groove is connected to the destabilization of Ca2+ ions and the dynamics of specific protein regions.

Decidual macrophages derived NO downregulates PD-L1 in trophoblasts leading to decreased Treg cells in recurrent miscarriage

Yonghong Zhang, Huiyan Wang, Panpan Qiu, Jingwen Jiang, Xuhong Wu, Jie Mei, Haixiang Sun

Summary: Placental trophoblasts play a role in the regulation of regulatory T cells through the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway, and decreased expression of PD-L1 in trophoblasts is associated with Treg deficiency in pregnancy failure. YY1 modulates the expression of PD-L1 in trophoblasts, and elevated levels of NO from M1 macrophages may lead to reduced YY1 expression in recurrent miscarriage.
