Filippi syndrome is an autosomal recessive condition characterized by syndactyly of fingers and toes, microcephaly, growth retardation and abnormal Mug facies.We are describing a boy who presented with syndactyly, mental retardation, microcephaly, depressed nasal bridge and growth retardation.In addition he had some dental abnormalities like missin

The colourful causal construction. A corpus-based cross-linguistic analysis of its form and function in Dutch, English and French
Previous research has shown that colours are used in many languages to express emotions.This study aims to provide a cross-linguistic constructional analysis of the Colourful Causal Construction (CCC) (e.g., she is red with anger) in which colour-emotion associations play a central role.A corpus study was conducted using the TenTen web corpora to i
H3K4 mono- and di-methyltransferase MLL4 is required for enhancer activation during cell differentiation
Enhancers play a central role in cell-type-specific gene expression and are marked by H3K4me1/2.Active enhancers are further marked by H3K27ac.However, the methyltransferases responsible for H3K4me1/2 on enhancers remain elusive.Furthermore, how these enzymes function on enhancers to regulate cell-type-specific gene expression is unclear.In this st
Positive solutions for parametric nonlinear periodic problems with competing nonlinearities
We consider a nonlinear periodic problem driven by a nonhomogeneous differential operator plus an indefinite potential and a reaction having the Coupe Glasses competing effects of concave and convex terms.For the superlinear (concave) term we do not employ the usual in such cases Ambrosetti-Rabinowitz condition.Using variational methods together wi
