Overview of Gene Research
Check the content of the review LYSMD4, information about its common aliases is not provided in the given references. Its essential functions, associated pathways, and overall biological importance are yet to be comprehensively defined. However, genetic models could potentially be valuable for further exploring its roles.
In genetic studies, LYSMD4 has been associated with several conditions. In a multi-ethnic whole-genome sequencing study, LYSMD4 was identified among loci demonstrating sex-specific associations with bone mineral density (BMD), specifically in men [2]. In addition, in transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) for Alzheimer's disease (AD), LYSMD4 was identified as one of five novel gene associations in cortical brain tissue, suggesting its possible involvement in the genetic architecture underlying AD risk [1,4]. 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 [3].
In conclusion, LYSMD4 appears to be associated with bone mineral density in a sex-specific manner in men, may play a role in the genetic risk of Alzheimer's disease, and is affected in a chromosomal deletion related to Weill-Marchesani syndrome 4. The study of LYSMD4 through genetic models could potentially provide more insights into these disease-related biological processes.
