Co-occurring risk factors for alcohol dependence and habitual smoking. [PDF]

, 2000
Smoking and alcohol dependence frequently occur together, and both behaviors are determined in part by genetic influences. The Collaborative Study on the Genetics of Alcoholism (COGA), which is investigating the genetic factors contributing to alcohol ...

Molecular characterisation of human penile carcinoma and generation of paired epithelial primary cell lines

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Generation of two normal and tumour (cancerous) paired human cell lines using an established tissue culture technique and their characterisation is described. Cell lines were characterised at cellular, protein, chromosome and gene expression levels and for HPV status.

Emerging patterns of genetic overlap across autoimmune disorders. [PDF]

, 2012
Most of the recently identified autoimmunity loci are shared among multiple autoimmune diseases. The pattern of genetic association with autoimmune phenotypes varies, suggesting that certain subgroups of autoimmune diseases are likely to share ...

Transcriptional network analysis of PTEN‐protein‐deficient prostate tumors reveals robust stromal reprogramming and signs of senescent paracrine communication

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining PTEN protein assessment and transcriptomic profiling of prostate tumors, we uncovered a network enriched in senescence and extracellular matrix (ECM) programs associated with PTEN loss and conserved in a mouse model. We show that PTEN‐deficient cells trigger paracrine remodeling of the surrounding stroma and this information could help ...

Chromosome 15 Imprinting Disorders: Genetic Laboratory Methodology and Approaches

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2020
Chromosome 15 imprinting disorders include Prader-Willi (PWS) and Angelman (AS) syndromes, which are caused by absent expression from the paternal and maternal alleles in the chromosome 15q11. 2–q13 region, respectively.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Application of trio-based whole-exome sequencing in fetal ultrasound anomalies: a single-center retrospective study of 454 cases

Frontiers in Genetics
This study assessed the diagnostic effectiveness of trio-WES compared to CMA in fetuses with ultrasound anomalies and explored optimal prenatal testing strategies. A retrospective review included 454 fetuses who underwent trio-WES and/or CMA between 2020

A comprehensive and universal approach for embryo testing in patients with different genetic disorders

Clinical and Translational Medicine, 2021
Background In vitro fertilization (IVF) with preimplantation genetic testing (PGT) has markedly improved clinical pregnancy outcomes for carriers of gene mutations or chromosomal structural rearrangements by the selection of embryos free of disease ...

Overview of molecular signatures of senescence and associated resources: pros and cons

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cells can enter a stress response state termed cellular senescence that is involved in various diseases and aging. Detecting these cells is challenging due to the lack of universal biomarkers. This review presents the current state of senescence identification, from biomarkers to molecular signatures, compares tools and approaches, and highlights ...

Catastrophic chromosomal restructuring during genome elimination in plants. [PDF]

, 2015
Genome instability is associated with mitotic errors and cancer. This phenomenon can lead to deleterious rearrangements, but also genetic novelty, and many questions regarding its genesis, fate and evolutionary role remain unanswered.
