Abstract excerpt
Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) exhibits extensive genetic heterogeneity, with 72% of cases involving pathogenic variants in 10 genes forming a gene regulatory network (GRN) essential for enteric nervous system (ENS) development. The receptor tyrosine kinase gene RET is the most significant contributor, implicated in 12%-50% of individuals depending on the phenotype. RET plays a critical role in ENS precursor...
