Added comment: PMID: 40926052: 1x cHet individual with primary microcephaly (-2 SD at birth and -3 SD at 5yo), motor delay, enlarged bilateral ventricles on MRI, horizontal nystagmus. Two frameshift variants identified, p.Lys15Glufs*9 (5’ NMD-escape; 432 hets, 2 homs in gnomAD v4) and p.Asp40Lysfs*5 (NMD-predicted; filtered out in v4).

CETN3-KO hCOs (human cerebral organoids) were significantly smaller than control hCOs.
The identified patient variants were introduced into WT iPSCs. Western blot analysis demonstrated a complete loss of CETN3 protein in both CETN3-KO cells and CETN3-mutant iPSCs. These were then used to generate hCOs, both of which exhibited reduced size compared to their respective controls.

Forebrain-specific Cetn3-ablated mice were also generated. At embryonic day 13.5 a significant but subtle reduction in forebrain size was detected in Cetn3-KO mice compared to control, while no difference was observed at P0.
