BJMG Dear Participants, We welcome you all for joining us in this 13th Balkan Congress of Human Genetics in Edirne between the dates of April 17-20, 2019. We will start our congress with four different course topics specialized in the various fields of Human Genetics, where apparent associations are frequent but cause-to-effect issues are challenging. Major subjects of the Congress will cover Prenatal Diagnosis, Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis, Non Invasive Prenatal Screening, Pharmacogenetics, Genetics and Personalized Medicine, Orphan Diseases, Cancer Genetics, Complex Genetic Disorders, Omics Data and Bioinformatics tools. We hope not only you will find the content of the program scientifically appealing, but also will enjoy being in Edirne, charming and lovely city of Turkey, hosted many cultures in the history. On behalf of Board Members of Medical Genetics Association of Turkey and Balkan Congress Organizing Committee, we will be happy to see you all in Edirne and would like to thank you in advance for your scientific contributions.

  • Genetics of Azoospermia
    International Journal of Molecular Sciences Review Genetics of Azoospermia Francesca Cioppi , Viktoria Rosta and Csilla Krausz * Department of Biochemical, Experimental and Clinical Sciences “Mario Serio”, University of Florence, 50139 Florence, Italy; francesca.cioppi@unifi.it (F.C.); viktoria.rosta@unifi.it (V.R.) * Correspondence: csilla.krausz@unifi.it Abstract: Azoospermia affects 1% of men, and it can be due to: (i) hypothalamic-pituitary dysfunction, (ii) primary quantitative spermatogenic disturbances, (iii) urogenital duct obstruction. Known genetic factors contribute to all these categories, and genetic testing is part of the routine diagnostic workup of azoospermic men. The diagnostic yield of genetic tests in azoospermia is different in the different etiological categories, with the highest in Congenital Bilateral Absence of Vas Deferens (90%) and the lowest in Non-Obstructive Azoospermia (NOA) due to primary testicular failure (~30%). Whole- Exome Sequencing allowed the discovery of an increasing number of monogenic defects of NOA with a current list of 38 candidate genes. These genes are of potential clinical relevance for future gene panel-based screening. We classified these genes according to the associated-testicular histology underlying the NOA phenotype. The validation and the discovery of novel NOA genes will radically improve patient management. Interestingly, approximately 37% of candidate genes are shared in human male and female gonadal failure, implying that genetic counselling should be extended also to female family members of NOA patients.

  • Uncommon Forms of Diabetes

It is estimated to account for 1%–2% will encounter in their clinical practice. The most common of patients diagnosed with diabetes and, in the UK, the prevalence form is type 2 diabetes followed by type 1 diabetes. However, of MODY is estimated to be at 108 cases per million.3 However, there are many other atypical forms of diabetes which are it may be a significant underestimate and these figures are not important for a clinician to consider as it can impact on the accurate until large population screening studies are performed. ABSTRACT diagnosis and their management. The most common mutations are hepatocyte nuclear factor-1- This article focuses on maturity onset diabetes of the young alpha (HNF1α; 52%), glucokinase (GCK; 32%) and HNF4α (10%), (MODY), latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA), see Table 2.3 ketosis-prone diabetes and other secondary forms of diabetes such as pancreatic cancer and haemochromatosis. We briefly Hepatocyte nuclear factor-1-alpha gene describe the key clinical features of these forms of diabetes and their investigations and treatment. Formerly called MODY3, mutations on the HNF1α gene on chromosome 3 are associated with a progressive defect of insulin secretion.4 Mutations here also result in low renal threshold for 5 Introduction glucose and thus mutation carriers have detectable glycosuria. In the UK, around 90% of people with diabetes have type 2 diabetes (T2D), around 8% have type 1 diabetes (T1D) and around 2% have other forms of diabetes.1 Key points Typically, we see T1D present in a young, lean patient with Suspect other uncommon forms of diabetes if the clinical marked symptoms of polyuria, polydipsia, weight loss and diabetic picture does not fit type 1 or type 2 diabetes.

Received: 4 April 2014; in revised form: 7 July 2014 / Accepted: 14 July 2014 / Published: 4 August 2014 Abstract: The last decade has seen considerable advances in our understanding of the genetic basis of skin disease, as a consequence of high throughput sequencing technologies including next generation sequencing and whole exome sequencing. We have now determined the genes underlying several monogenic diseases, such as harlequin ichthyosis, Olmsted syndrome, and exfoliative ichthyosis, which have provided unique insights into the structure and function of the skin. In addition, through genome wide association studies we now have an understanding of how low penetrance variants contribute to inflammatory skin diseases such as psoriasis vulgaris and atopic dermatitis, and how they contribute to underlying pathophysiological disease processes. In this review we discuss strategies used to unravel the genes underlying both monogenic and complex trait skin diseases in the last 10 years and the implications on mechanistic studies, diagnostics, and therapeutics.
