Overview of Gene Research
Check the content of the review Lysmd4, details about its common aliases are not provided in the given references. Its essential functions, associated pathways are currently not clearly defined, but genetic models like those used in transcriptome-wide association studies can potentially shed light on its role.
In a multi-ethnic whole genome sequencing study, LYSMD4 was identified among loci demonstrating sex-specific associations with bone mineral density, specifically in men [2]. In another study, LYSMD4 was found to be one of the five novel genes associated with Alzheimer's disease in cortical brain tissue through transcriptome-wide association studies [1,3]. Also, in a case of Weill-Marchesani syndrome 4, a maternal submicroscopic deletion on chromosome 15q26.3 affected the sequences of LYSMD4 along with ADAMTS17 and CERS3 [4].
In conclusion, LYSMD4 shows associations with bone mineral density in men and Alzheimer's disease in cortical brain tissue. The case report also indicates its potential involvement in Weill-Marchesani syndrome 4. These findings from different research models help in understanding the role of LYSMD4 in various biological processes and disease conditions.
