Journal ArticleDOI

Mutations in amphiphysin 2 ( BIN1 ) disrupt interaction with dynamin 2 and cause autosomal recessive centronuclear myopathy

TL;DR: The results suggest that mutations in BIN1 cause centronuclear myopathy by interfering with remodeling of T tubules and/or endocytic membranes, and that the functional interaction between Bin1 and DNM2 is necessary for normal muscle function and positioning of nuclei.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the origin of trisomy 21 Down syndrome

TL;DR: It is suggested that most normal female foetuses are trisomy 21 ovarian mosaics and the maternal age effect is caused by differential selection of these cells during foetal and postnatal development until ovulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

A high degree of aneuploidy in frozen-thawed human preimplantation embryos

TL;DR: The data show a slightly higher incidence of abnormal embryos compared to those obtained with FISH in non-cryopreserved embryos and confirm that the majority of preimplantation embryos fertilised in vitro contain abnormal blastomeres.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fetal membrane cells for treatment of steroid-refractory acute graft-versus-host disease.

TL;DR: Fetal membrane cells isolated from term placenta may be successfully used for immune modulation and tissue repair in treatment of steroid‐refractory acute GVHD.
