Check out the most recent UDN publication! Key takeaway: Dysregulation of glutamine synthetase (GS) due to #GLUL variants in nine individuals was found to be associated with severe developmental delays and neurological issues, highlighting the importance of tightly regulating glutamine metabolism in neurodevelopment.

The Undiagnosed Diseases Network is a research study focused on rare and undiagnosed conditions.
About us
The Undiagnosed Diseases Network (UDN) is a research study that is funded by the National Institutes of Health Common Fund. Its purpose is to bring together clinical and research experts from across the United States to solve the most challenging medical mysteries using advanced technologies. Through this study, we hope to both help individual patients and families living with the burden of undiagnosed diseases, and contribute to the understanding of how the human body works.

Check out the most recent UDN publication! Key takeaway: #TUBB4B variants identified in 12 patients were found to disrupt centriole and cilium biogenesis in primary ciliary dyskinesia, affecting microtubule dynamics and enabling classification of ciliopathies into three categories.

Check out the most recent UDN publication! Key takeaway: A sibling pair had compound heterozygous variants of uncertain significance (VUS) in the #TTNgene. While this result was considered nondiagnostic, further reanalysis of RNAseq data with a different approach led to the diagnosis of congenital titinopathy four years later. The article highlights the need for ongoing reanalysis and consideration of variant data.
