Genetic Landscape of Obesity in Children: Research Advances and Prospects

open access: yesJournal of Obesity, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Obesity is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by excessive accumulation or uneven distribution of fat in the body, which poses a serious threat to health. Obesity significantly increases the risk of developing сonditions such as type 2 diabetes, coronary heart disease, hypertension, obstructive sleep apnea, and some types of cancer.

Social threat exposure in juvenile mice promotes cocaine-seeking by altering blood clotting and brain vasculature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Childhood maltreatment is associated with increased severity of substance use disorder and frequent relapse to drug use following abstinence. However, the molecular and neurobiological substrates that are engaged during early traumatic events and ...

Genome-wide meta-analysis identifies 11 new loci for anthropometric traits and provides insights into genetic architecture

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2013
Approaches exploiting trait distribution extremes may be used to identify loci associated with common traits, but it is unknown whether these loci are generalizable to the broader population.

Insights into RNA‐mediated pathology in new mouse models of Huntington's disease

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 38, Issue 23, 15 December 2024.
The behavioral and molecular characterization was performed for Huntington's disease mouse models expressing a fragment of the human HTT gene, with mutation of ~100 CAG repeats, in the nontranslated version (HD/100CAG) and the translated version (HD/100Q). Abstract Huntington's disease (HD) is a neurodegenerative polyglutamine (polyQ) disease resulting

Drivers of genomic diversity and phenotypic development in early phases of domestication in Hermetia illucens

open access: yesInsect Molecular Biology, Volume 33, Issue 6, Page 756-776, December 2024.
Random drift rather than selection is the primary evolutionary force driving genomic and phenotypic variation in BSF populations during early phases of domestication. Functional trade‐offs between production and fitness traits were observed in BSF populations.

Is personalized medicine achievable in obstetrics? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Personalized medicine seeks to identify the right dose of the right drug for the right patient at the right time. Typically, individualization of therapy is based on the pharmacogenomic makeup of the individual and environmental factors that alter drug ...

Paraoxonase‐2 agonist vutiglabridin promotes autophagy activation and mitochondrial function to alleviate non‐alcoholic steatohepatitis

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, Volume 181, Issue 19, Page 3717-3742, October 2024.
Abstract Background and Purpose Only limited therapeutic agents have been developed for non‐alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH). Glabridin, a promising anti‐obesity candidate, has only limited druggability due to its low in vivo chemical stability and bioavailability.

A Five-microRNA Signature as Prognostic Biomarker in Colorectal Cancer by Bioinformatics Analysis

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2019
Mounting evidence has demonstrated that a lot of miRNAs are overexpressed or downregulated in colorectal cancer (CRC) tissues and play a crucial role in tumorigenesis, invasion, and migration.

Integration of multiomics data identifies candidate genes influencing pH levels in Beijing Black pigs

open access: yesAnimal Research and One Health, Volume 2, Issue 3, Page 260-272, August 2024.
To explore the genetic mechanism of pH values, we measured the pH values at 2 h (pH2h) and 24 h (pH24h) postmortem in the longissimus dorsi muscle of Beijing Black pigs. A total of 614 Beijing Black pigs were genotyped by the Illumina Porcine 50K SNP Chip. We conducted a genome‐wide association study and RNA sequencing (RNA‐seq) analysis.
