This is the first report to our knowledge of viable homozygous truncating mutations in any human HOX gene and of a mendelian disorder resulting from mutations in a human HOX gene critical for development of the central nervous system.
Pathology

6 November 2010WKP
Definition: Serine/threonine-protein kinase PLK1, also known as polo-like kinase 1 (PLK-1) or serine/threonine-protein kinase 13 (STPK13), is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PLK1 (polo-like kinase 1) gene.
Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) is an essential protein in communicating cell-cycle progression and DNA damage. Polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) is a multi-functional protein and its aberrant expression is a driver of cancerous transformation and progression.

OXE receptor
29 August 2005The eicosanoid 5-oxo-6E,8Z,11Z,14Z-eicosatetraenoic acid (5-oxo-ETE) has recently been identified as the ligand for the oxoeicosanoid (OXE) receptor.
Pathology
asthma In vitro and in vivo studies have suggested that 5-oxo-ETE has a role in the asthmatic inflammatory response and it has been shown to stimulate eosinophil migration to the airways.
