ABSTRACT Background The implementation of pharmacogenetics in clinical practice increasingly relies on multigene panels. Objectives The objective of this study is to develop harmonized recommendations for the design and analytical implementation of multigene pharmacogenetic panels, defining clinically relevant genes and associated regions of interest ...

The FoxM1-ABCC4 axis mediates carboplatin resistance in human retinoblastoma Y-79 cells [PDF]
Carboplatin is the most commonly used drug in the first-line treatment of human retinoblastoma (RB), but its clinical application is greatly limited due to acquired drug resistance upon the long-term treatment. Forkhead box protein M1 (FoxM1) is the transcription factor aberrantly expressed in various types of human cancers, which plays an essential ...

Comprehensive analysis of genomic mutations, gene expression, DNA methylation, and pathway analysis of TCGA data was carried out to define cancer types in which proteasome subunits expression is associated with worse survival. Albeit the effect of specific proteasome subunits on cellular function, the main role of the proteasome is better evaluated ...

Lamivudine and tenofovir pharmacokinetic variability in people with HIV in Papua New Guinea
Aims Demographics and kidney function contribute to variability in lamivudine and tenofovir drug concentrations. The aim was to assess, for the first time, the pharmacokinetic variability of lamivudine and tenofovir in Papua New Guinean (PNG) HIV/AIDS patients.

Stabilization of Human Multidrug Resistance Protein 4 (MRP4/ABCC4) Using Novel Solubilization Agents [PDF]
Membrane proteins (MPs) are important drug discovery targets for a wide range of diseases. However, elucidating the structure and function of native MP is notoriously challenging as their original structure has to be maintained once removed from the lipid bilayer.

Exercise serum regulates uric acid transporters in normal rat kidney cells
Hyperuricemia (HUA) refers to a physiological condition of high serum uric acid (SUA) level in the body, which may cause an increased risk of several chronic diseases. The kidney’s impaired uric acid (UA) metabolism is an important reason for HUA.

The Role of DNA Methyltransferases in Urinary System Diseases
Multiple signaling pathways mediated by DNMTs in the formation of renal fibrosis: (a) DNMTs suppress the expression of transcription factor KLF4 by mediating promoter hypermethylation, thereby promoting epithelial–mesenchymal transition and contributing to the development of renal fibrosis; (b) oxidative stress can upregulate the levels of DNMTs, which
