Exposure to per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) remains an important public health issue due widespread detection persistence in environmental media, slow metabolism humans, influences on physiological processes such as neurological signaling. Maternal depression is highly prevalent during pregnancy postpartum potentially sensitive PFAS. The risks associated with PFAS may be further amplified historically marginalized communities, including immigrants.

Racial inequities and rare CFTR variants: Impact on cystic fibrosis diagnosis and treatment

Journal of Clinical & Translational Endocrinology, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 36, С. 100344 - 100344

Cystic fibrosis (CF) has been traditionally viewed as a disease that affects White individuals. However, CF occurs among all races, ethnicities, and geographic ancestries. The disorder results from mutations in the transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR). Varying incidence of is reported Black, Indigenous, People Color (BIPOC), who typically exhibit worse clinical outcomes. These populations are more likely to carry rare CFTR variants omitted newborn screening panels, leading disparities care such delayed diagnosis treatment. In this study, we present case-in-point describing an individual Gambian descent identified with CF. Patient genotype includes premature termination codon (PTC) (c.2353C>T) previously undescribed single nucleotide deletion (c.1970delG), arguing against effectiveness currently available modulator-based interventions. Strategies for overcoming these two will include combinations PTC suppressors, nonsense mediated decay inhibitors, and/or alternative approaches (e.g. gene therapy). Investigations study establish foundation which therapeutic treatments may be developed. Importantly, c.2353C>T c.1970delG were not detected patient by traditional implicit racial ethnic diagnostic bias tests comprised largely observed people European ancestry. We suggest next-generation sequencing should utilized confirm or exclude diagnosis, order equitably serve BIPOC Additional epidemiologic data, basic science investigations, translational work imperative improving understanding prevalence progression, variant frequency, genotype-phenotype correlation, pharmacologic responsiveness, personalized medicine patients African ancestry other historically understudied lineages.
