Mutations in genes encoding ribonuclease H2 subunits cause Aicardi-Goutières syndrome and mimic congenital viral brain infection.

TL;DR: It is shown that AGS can result from mutations in the genes encoding any one of its three subunits, demonstrating a role for ribonuclease H in human neurological disease and suggesting an unanticipated relationship between ribonUClease H2 and the antiviral immune response that warrants further investigation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pharmacogenetics of morphine poisoning in a breastfed neonate of a codeine-prescribed mother.

TL;DR: This case shows that polymorphism of CYP2D6 can be life threatening for some breastfed babies and avoidance of codeine use during breastfeeding, with its use being retained as second or third line for uncontrolled pain, could also avert this situation.
