Abstract
Germline and somatic pathogenic variants (PVs) in DICER1 , encoding a miRNA biogenesis protein, are associated with a wide variety of highly specific pathologic entities. The lung tumors pleuropulmonary blastoma, pulmonary blastoma (PB), and well-differentiated fetal lung adenocarcinoma (WDFLAC) are all known to harbor DICER1 biallelic variants (loss of function and/or somatic hotspot missense mutations), and all share pathologic features reminiscent of the immature lung. However, the role of DICER1 PVs in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is relatively unknown. Here, we aimed to establish the spectrum of lung pathologies associated with DICER1 hotspot PVs and to compare the mutational landscape of DICER1 -mutated NSCLC with and without hotspots. We queried DNA sequencing data from 12,146 NSCLCs featuring somatic DICER1 variants. 235 (1.9%) cases harboring ≥ 1 DICER1 PV were found and 9/235 (3.8%) were DICER1 hotspot-positive cases. Histologic review of DICER1 hotspot-positive cases showed that all but one tumor were classified as within the histologic spectrum of PB/WDFLAC, whereas all the DICER1 non-hotspot double variants were classified as lung adenocarcinomas, not otherwise specified. Comparison between the mutational landscape of DICER1 hotspot-positive and hotspot-negative cases revealed a higher frequency of CTNNB1 mutations in the hotspot-positive cases (5/9 vs. 2/225; P <0.00001). We conclude that DICER1 somatic hotspots are not implicated in the most common forms of NSCLC but rather select for morphologic features of lung tumor types such as PB and WDFLAC. As a corollary, cases showing this tumor morphology should undergo testing for DICER1 variants, and if positive, genetic counseling should be considered.

Abstract
A small subset of testicular sex cord-stromal tumors, designated as Sertoli-stromal cell tumors (SSCTs), comprises a mixture of Sertoli, spindle, and/or Leydig cells. The clinicopathologic features of these tumors have not been studied in any detail, and their molecular features are unknown. We, therefore, assessed the morphologic and genomic features of 14 SSCTs, including 1 tumor with features similar to the ovarian Sertoli-Leydig cell tumor (SLCT) with retiform tubules. The median age of the patients was 24 years (range, 10-55 years), and the median tumor size was 2.3 cm (range, 0.7-4.7 cm). All tumors showed Sertoli-like sex cord cells arranged in variably developed tubular structures, typically also forming nests and cords. These imperceptibly blended with a neoplastic spindle cell stroma or, in the SLCT, vacuolated to eosinophilic Leydig cells. Genomic analysis demonstrated the presence of a hotspot loss-of-function DICER1 mutation in the SLCT (patient 1) and hotspot gain-of-function CTNNB1 mutations in the tumors of patients 2 and 3, with both CTNNB1 variants being interpreted as possible subclonal events. The mutations were the only relevant findings in the tumors of patients 1 and 2, whereas the tumor of patient 3 harbored concurrent chromosomal arm-level and chromosome-level copy number gains. Among the remaining 11 tumors, all of those that had interpretable copy number data (9 tumors) harbored multiple recurrent chromosomal arm-level and chromosome-level copy number gains suggestive of a shift in ploidy without concurrent pathogenic mutations. The results of the present study suggest that CTNNB1 mutations (likely subclonal) are only rarely present in SSCTs; instead, most of them harbor genomic alterations similar to those seen in testicular sex cord-stromal tumors with pure or predominant spindle cell components. A notable exception was a testicular SLCT with morphologic features identical to the ovarian counterpart, which harbored a DICER1 mutation.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW This review will focus on the current knowledge of the diagnosis and management of overgrowth syndromes with specific focus on mosaic conditions and treatment strategies. RECENT FINDINGS With the implementation of massively parallel sequencing, the genetic etiology of many classically described overgrowth syndromes have been identified. More recently, the role of mosaic genetic changes has been well described in numerous syndromes. Furthermore, the role of imprinting and methylation, especially of the 11p15 region, has been shown to be instrumental for growth. Perhaps most importantly, many overgrowth syndromes carry an increased risk of neoplasm formation especially in the first 10 years of life and possibly beyond. The systematic approach to the child with overgrowth will aide in timely diagnosis and efficiently align them with appropriate screening strategies. In some cases, precision medical interventions are available to target the perturbed growth signaling pathways. SUMMARY The systematic approach to the child with overgrowth aids in the standardization of the diagnostic pathway for these young patients, thereby expediting the diagnostic timeline, enabling rigorous monitoring, and delivering tailored therapeutic interventions.

Abstract
R-loops, which consist of a DNA-RNA hybrid and a displaced DNA strand, are known to threaten genome integrity. To counteract this, different mechanisms suppress R-loop accumulation by either preventing the hybridization of RNA with the DNA template (RNA biogenesis factors), unwinding the hybrid (DNA-RNA helicases), or degrading the RNA moiety of the R-loop (type H ribonucleases [RNases H]). Thus far, RNases H are the only nucleases known to cleave DNA-RNA hybrids. Now, we show that the RNase DICER also resolves R-loops. Biochemical analysis reveals that DICER acts by specifically cleaving the RNA within R-loops. Importantly, a DICER RNase mutant impaired in R-loop processing causes a strong accumulation of R-loops in cells. Our results thus not only reveal a function of DICER as an R-loop resolvase independent of DROSHA but also provide evidence for the role of multi-functional RNA processing factors in the maintenance of genome integrity in higher eukaryotes.

Abstract
DICER1 syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that predisposes patients to the development of malignant and non-malignant diseases. Presently, DICER1 syndrome diagnosis still occurs late, usually following surgical operations, affecting patients' outcomes, especially for further neoplasms, which are entailed in this syndrome. For this reason, herein we present a multicenter report of DICER1 syndrome, with the prospective aim of enhancing post-surgical surveillance. A cohort of seven patients was collected among the surgical registries of Pediatric Surgery at the University of Pisa with the General and Oncologic Surgery of Federico II, University of Naples, and the Pediatric Surgery, Regina Margherita Hospital, University of Turin. In each case, the following data were analyzed: sex, age at diagnosis, age at first surgery, clinical features, familial, genetic investigations, and follow-up. A comprehensive literature review of DICER1 cases, including case reports and multicenter studies published from 1996 to June 2022, was performed. Eventually, the retrieved data from the literature were compared with the data emerging from our cohort of patients.

Abstract
Germline pathogenic variants in DICER1 predispose individuals to develop a variety of benign and malignant tumors. Accurate variant curation and classification is essential for reliable diagnosis of DICER1-related tumor predisposition and identification of individuals who may benefit from surveillance. Since 2015, most labs have followed the American College of Medical Genetics and Genomics and the Association for Molecular Pathology (ACMG/AMP) sequence variant classification guidelines for DICER1 germline variant curation. However, these general guidelines lack gene-specific nuances and leave room for subjectivity. Consequently, a group of DICER1 experts joined ClinGen to form the DICER1 and miRNA-Processing Genes Variant Curation Expert Panel (VCEP), to create DICER1- specific ACMG/AMP guidelines for germline variant curation. The VCEP followed the FDA-approved ClinGen protocol for adapting and piloting these guidelines. A diverse set of 40 DICER1 variants were selected for piloting, including 14 known Pathogenic/Likely Pathogenic (P/LP) variants, 12 known Benign/Likely Benign (B/LB) variants, and 14 variants classified as variants of uncertain significance (VUS) or with conflicting interpretations in ClinVar. Clinically meaningful classifications (i.e., P, LP, LB, or B) were achieved for 82.5% (33/40) of the pilot variants, with 100% concordance among the known P/LP and known B/LB variants. Half of the VUS or conflicting variants were resolved with four variants classified as LB and three as LP. These results demonstrate that the DICER1-specific guidelines for germline variant curation effectively classify known pathogenic and benign variants while reducing the frequency of uncertain classifications. Individuals and labs curating DICER1 variants should consider adopting this classification framework to encourage consistency and improve objectivity.

Two Genetic Mechanisms in Two Siblings with Intellectual Disability, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and Psychosis. J Pers Med 2022; 12:jpm12061013.

Abstract
Intellectual disability (ID) and autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are complex neurodevelopmental disorders with high heritability. To search for the genetic deficits in two siblings affected with ID and ASD in a family, we first performed a genome-wide copy number variation (CNV) analysis using chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA). We found a 3.7 Mb microdeletion at 22q13.3 in the younger sister. This de novo microdeletion resulted in the haploinsufficiency of SHANK3 and several nearby genes involved in neurodevelopment disorders. Hence, she was diagnosed with Phelan–McDermid syndrome (PMS, OMIM#606232). We further performed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) analysis in this family. We did not detect pathogenic mutations with significant impacts on the phenotypes of the elder brother. Instead, we identified several rare, likely pathogenic variants in seven genes implicated in neurodevelopmental disorders: KLHL17, TDO2, TRRAP, EIF3F, ATP10A, DICER1, and CDH15. These variants were transmitted from his unaffected parents, indicating these variants have only moderate clinical effects. We propose that these variants worked together and led to the clinical phenotypes in the elder brother. We also suggest that the combination of multiple genes with moderate effects is part of the genetic mechanism of neurodevelopmental disorders.
