Whole-exome sequencing reveals a novel frameshift and a recurrent nonsense SPG11 variant causing rare familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis type 5 in two consanguineous Pakistani families - Riaz Ahmad; Muhammad Naeem; Henry Houlden (Molecular Biology Reports, 2026)
Background Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a neurodegenerative disease that affects both upper and lower motor neurons, disturbing communication between the brain and muscles. So far, few reports have been published for the SPG11 -associated ALS, and this is the first documented case from Pakistan. Methods We report a rare subtype of ALS with an autosomal recessive mode of inheritance with juvenile onset before 25 years of age in the five affected individuals from two unrelated families. Whole-exome sequencing was performed to identify disease-causing variants, and selected variants were further prioritized based on predicted pathogenicity and similarity to clinical phenotypes. Results Two homozygous variants within the SPG11 gene were identified as pathogenic according to the ACMG and ClinGen Sequence Variant Interpretation (SVI) Working Group recommendations: a novel truncation (NM_025137.4:c.6738dup, p.Glu2247Ter) variant as validated by Sanger sequencing and a recurrent nonsense (NM_025137.4: c.782C>A, p.Ser261Ter) variant (rs765477482) previously reported in a family affected with autosomal recessive hereditary spastic paraplegia (ARHSP). In silico prediction tools further confirmed their pathogenicity. Conclusion Five patients with juvenile-onset ALS born to consanguineous parents were found to have homozygous SPG11 gene variants. Our findings describe the overlapping phenotypes of SPG11 -related autosomal recessive juvenile ALS and ARHSP, suggesting that these disorders show a clear overlapping phenotype with common genetic defects. In clinical practice, it is challenging to distinguish between these two disorders. Additional Mendelian cases should be included to clarify further and investigate whether these represent two diverse diseases caused by variants in a single gene.

In-vitro modelling of Alzheimer’s disease using cholinergic neurons derived from human neuroblastoma (SH-SY5Y) retinoic acid-induced differentiation - Muhammad-Safuan Zainuddin; Kasthuri Bai Magalingam; Narendra Pamidi; Adzzie Shazleen Azman; Saatheeyavaane Bhuvanendran (Molecular Biology Reports, 2026)
Background Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is characterised by severe degeneration of cholinergic neurons within the basal forebrain complex (FBC) which is a key regulator of cognitive function. Cholinergic loss represents a central pathological hallmark of AD; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood. Although various in-vitro models are available, many are limited by species-specific differences, high cost, and technical complexity. Human neuroblastoma (SH-SY5Y) cells can be differentiated into neuron-like cells and represent a practical alternative for AD research. This study aimed to optimise retinoic acid (RA)-based differentiation conditions to enhance cholinergic characteristics in SH-SY5Y cells and evaluate their susceptibility to AD-related stressors as a simplified, cost-effective model for preliminary high-throughput AD studies. Methods A structured literature search (2000–2025) was conducted using PubMed and ScienceDirect. After screening based on predefined criteria, 23 relevant studies were analysed for differentiation inducers, serum concentration, duration, neuronal markers, and cholinergic markers. Here, a simplified RA-only protocol was evaluated using 10µM RA with 1% or 3% heat-inactivated foetal bovine serum (1% or 3% HI-FBS) over 3, 5, and 7 days. Neuronal differentiation was assessed by morphological analysis, neurite length measurement, choline acetyltransferase ( ChAT ) and acetylcholinesterase ( AChE ) gene expressions, acetylcholinesterase (AChE) activity. Additionally, model relevance was further evaluated using AD-associated stressors such as streptozotocin (STZ), hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂), lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and aluminium chloride (AlCl₃). Results Although most protocols generated mature neuron-like cells, only ~ 30% reported cholinergic marker expression, with retinoic acid (RA) and brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) as the most common inducers. This study reports that differentiation with 1% HI-FBS with 10µM RA for 7 days produced pronounced neuronal morphology, significant neurite extension, and extensive branching. These cells demonstrated a cholinergic-like phenotype, with significant upregulation of ChAT and AChE gene expressions, accompanied by increased AChE enzymatic activity. These neuron-like cells also showed dose-dependent responses to STZ, H₂O₂, and AlCl₃, with time-dependent effects observed for H₂O₂ and AlCl₃. Notably, cells were resistant to LPS-induced cytotoxicity. Conclusion These findings support the utility of this RA-differentiated SH-SY5Y for neuronal-like cells for cholinergic-like model (1% HI-FBS, 10µM RA) as a practical and cost-effective platform for high-throughput AD drug screening.

Clinico-genetic heterogeneity in Pakistani families affected with muscular dystrophies - Riaz Ahmad; Muhammad Almas Hashmi; Asad Ullah; Ubaid Ur Rehman; Muhammad Naeem; Henry Houlden (Molecular Biology Reports, 2026)
Background Muscular dystrophies are a group of inherited neuromuscular disorders characterized by degenerative and progressive muscle weakness. Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD), Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD) and merosin-deficient congenital muscular dystrophy type 1 (MDC1A) are frequent forms caused by DMD (NM_004006.3) and LAMA2 (NM_000426.4) mutations, respectively. Methods and results Our study used whole exome sequencing to explore the molecular genetics of muscular dystrophies in six unrelated Pakistani families. We found four novel variants in the LAMA2 ; c.7470_7473del; p.(Lys2490AsnfsTer56) in family A, c.7807del; p.(Ala2603HisfsTer4) in family C, c.8651T > C; p.(Met2884Thr) in family D and c.4127T > A; p.(Leu1376Ter) in family E associated with MDC1A in these families. Furthermore, two already cited DMD variants were identified: c.10,801 C > T; p.(Gln872Ter) in family B and hemizygous genomic deletion in DMD (NM_004006.3):g.32438241_32809611del (corresponding to deletion of exons 7–29; GRCh38), which was identified (in family F) associated with BMD and DMD, respectively. Conclusions We present the first report of MDC1A-associated phenotypes caused by the LAMA2 gene in the Pakistani population, while DMD -related cases have already been documented in the literature and public databases. Clinical and molecular diagnosis of these six affected families will be valuable in therapeutic interventions and prenatal diagnosis of neuromuscular dystrophies in the familial and Pakistani populations. Our study emphasizes the effectiveness of next generation sequencing technology over traditional diagnostic methods such as muscle biopsies.

PIAS4, a SUMO E3 ligase involved in maintaining genome stability and stress response, may play a role in these mechanisms. However, its function in breast cancer progression and DOX resistance remains uncertain. This study investigates the potential role of PIAS4 in mediating DOX resistance in breast cancer. Methods and results Naked mole-rats (NMRs) are cancer-resistant rodents with improved genome maintenance, yet the role of SUMOylation in this trait remains unclear. SUMOylation machinery gene expression levels are investigated using qPCR in NMR tissue in comparison with carcinogenic breast cancer (MCF-7) cell line. Functional studies are performed in MCF-7 cells overexpressing PIAS4 to demonstrate effects on proliferation, invasion, drug sensitivity, and protein expression in the presence and absence of DOX treatment. While most SUMOylation genes were expressed at low levels in NMR intestinal tissues, PIAS4 showed higher expression compared to MCF-7 cells. PIAS4 overexpression in MCF-7 cells significantly decreases colony formation, invasiveness, and resistance to DOX. Western blot analysis showed downregulated Bcl-2 protein levels after DOX treatment, indicating a potential role in apoptosis evasion. Conclusion PIAS4 expression level plays a role in breast cancer cell survival, invasiveness, and chemoresistance, partly by altering anti-apoptotic pathways. These findings position PIAS4 as a potential biomarker and therapeutic target for overcoming resistance to anthracycline-based therapies in breast cancer.

Genome sequencing reveals genes under selection for olfactory transduction in highland sheep - Anees Ahmad; Muhammad Ibrahim; Muhammad Yaqoob; Muhammad Fahim; Sher Hayat Khan; Israr Ud Din; Majid Khan; Sohail Ahmad (Molecular Genetics and Genomics, 2026)
Kutta is an indigenous sheep breed found in the mountainous region of Swat, Pakistan. In this study we evaluated the performance of Kutta sheep within their natural habitat and identified genomic regions associated with environmental adaptability using whole genome sequencing. Flocks are mostly managed under a transhumant production system with year-round breeding. Kutta sheep demonstrated higher lambing efficiency under the available resources. Although the body size of rams and ewes was comparable, significant variation was observed among different age groups. Whole genome sequencing identified 15.46 million variants relative to Oar_v1.0 reference genome assembly. Exonic variants accounted for 2.3% of all protein coding gene variants and affected 6347 genes. These genes were primarily enriched in pathways related to G protein-coupled receptor signaling (700 genes) and olfactory transduction (500 genes). Selective sweep analysis detected 1930 genes within the regions of high homozygosity across the genome. Based on homozygosity patterns, biological relevance, and colocalization with known QTLs, 11 candidate genes were identified as putative selective signature. Five of these genes (OR4C6L, OR1086L, OR5AK2L, QR5T2L, OR9Q2) belonged to the olfactory receptor family. These olfactory receptor genes may contribute to high-altitude adaptation in Kutta sheep by enhancing their ability to locate food resources, recognize mates, and detect predators in challenging mountainous environments. Further screening of the OR4C6L sequence across 12 indigenous sheep breeds revealed marked differences between highland and lowland populations. Collectively, these findings provide comprehensive genomic insights into high-altitude adaptation of sheep and highlight the potential role of olfactory perception in survival and environmental fitness.
