Mapping Causal Biology: Mendelian Randomization in the Era of Big Data

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
Mendelian randomization (MR) leverages genetic variants to mitigate confounding biases in causal inference. This review systematically maps MR's methodological evolution, highlights its expanding applications in epidemiology and drug target validation, and outlines future directions for overcoming current biases through dynamic, multi‐omics, and cross ...

Omics GWAS: A Multi‐Omics Integrative Analysis Platform for Genome‐Wide Association Studies

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With the rapid advancement of genome‐wide association studies (GWAS), downstream analyses of GWAS data have become essential for elucidating the genetic mechanisms that underlie complex diseases. However, current post‐GWAS analyses face numerous challenges, including heterogeneous data formats, challenges in multi‐omics integration, and ...

Toxicity Differences Between Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Organs: From Molecular Mechanisms to Potential Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
This review systematically compares the size‐dependent toxicity of microplastics and nanoplastics in the intestine, liver, kidney, lung, and brain. Particle size determines bioavailability, barrier penetration, and injury mechanisms. Because of their small size and high surface reactivity, NPs readily cross the intestinal epithelium and blood–brain ...

Frequency of ZFHX3‐Mediated Spinocerebellar Ataxia 4 in a US Undiagnosed Ataxia Cohort

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Spinocerebellar ataxia 4 (SCA4) is a late‐onset dominant ataxia with neuropathy caused by exonic GGC repeat expansion in the ZFHX3 gene thought to originate from a Swedish founder event. The GC‐rich expansion is highly thermodynamically stable, posing challenges for standard clinical genetic testing methods.

DNAJC13 Variants Show No Robust Association With Parkinson's Disease in a Multiancestry Cohort

open access: yesMovement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background DNAJC13 was initially linked to autosomal dominant (AD) Parkinson's disease (PD) in a European Mennonite family carrying the p.N855S variant. However, imperfect segregation and conflicting reports of pathogenicity raised uncertainty of the role of DNAJC13 in the disease.
