Genetic tests by next-generation sequencing in children with developmental delay and/or intellectual disability
Ji Yoon Han, In Goo Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2020;63(6):195-202.   Published online November 4, 2019
Developments in next-generation sequencing (NGS) techogies have assisted in clarifying the diagnosis and treatment of developmental delay/intellectual disability (DD/ID) via molecular genetic testing. Advances in DNA sequencing technology have not only allowed the evolution of targeted panels but also, and more currently enabled genome-wide analyses to progress from research era to clinical practice. Broad acceptance of accuracy- guided targeted gene...
The role of cytokines in seizures: interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-1Ra, IL-8, and IL-10
Youngah Youn, In Kyung Sung, In Goo Lee

Brain insults, including neurotrauma, infection, and perinatal injuries such as hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy, generate inflammation in the brain. These inflammatory cascades induce a wide spectrum of cytokines, which can cause neuron degeneration, have neurotoxic effects on brain tissue, and lead to the development of seizures, even if they are subclinical and occur at birth. Cytokines are secreted by the glial...

Case Report
A Case of 18 Ring Chromosome
Joong Hyun Bin, Moon Young Song, In Goo Lee, Won Bae Lee, Byung Churl Lee
Clin Exp Pediatr. 2001;44(6):683-686.   Published online June 15, 2001
A ring 18 chromosome(18r) karyotype is a rare disorder characterized by short stature, obesity, microcephaly, mental retardation, micropenis, cryptorchidism, hypertelorism, epicanthal folds, micrognathia, and small hands with short tapering fingers. A 22-month-old girl was referred to our department of pediatrics because of ptosis and delayed development. Karyotype revealed ring 18 and dicentric ring 18 chromosome(46,XX,r(18)[45]/45,XX,-18[7]/46,XX,dic r(18)[3]). Fluorescent in situ hybridization...
