Abstract Carrier screening for genetic conditions performed preconception or during pregnancy allows identification of fetal risk for inherited autosomal recessive and X‐linked conditions. The goal is to identify at‐risk patients/couples and offer them reproductive options such as preimplantation genetic diagnosis, prenatal testing, or targeted newborn

Network Analysis-Based Approach for Exploring the Potential Diagnostic Biomarkers of Acute Myocardial Infarction [PDF]
Acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a severe cardiovascular disease that is a serious threat to human life. However, the specific diagnostic biomarkers have not been fully clarified and candidate regulatory targets for AMI have not been identified.

Brain Atrophy Associated With Risk Variant rs10191329 Extends Beyond Multiple Sclerosis
The risk allele rs10191329*A is associated with disease severity and brain atrophy in people with multiple sclerosis (MS). We investigated the association of rs10191329 with age‐related brain atrophy in a population‐based cohort using 10,308 magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of 4,815 participants aged ≥ 45 years without MS in cross‐sectional and ...

How collective cell migration starts and stops is a fundamental question but remains poorly understood. This review discusses the distinct mechanisms in in vivo models and cancer metastasis that define the regulatory pathways and collective features governing the initiation and termination of collective cell migration.

Murine obscurin and Obsl1 have functionally redundant roles in sarcolemmal integrity, sarcoplasmic reticulum organization, and muscle metabolism. [PDF]
Biological roles of obscurin and its close homolog Obsl1 (obscurin-like 1) have been enigmatic. While obscurin is highly expressed in striated muscles, Obsl1 is found ubiquitously.

The Dysferlin Domain-Only Protein, Spo73, Is Required for Prospore Membrane Extension in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]
Sporulation of Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a developmental process in which an ascus containing four haploid spores forms from a diploid cell. During this process, newly formed membrane structures called prospore membranes extend along the nuclear ...

ABSTRACT Severe COVID‐19 involves hyperinflammation and multiorgan pathology, but consistent gene signatures remain elusive. We aimed to identify consensus transcriptomic signatures and molecular mechanisms in severe COVID‐19. We performed an integrative analysis of 39 studies spanning 11 tissue types, 1551 bulk RNA‐seq samples, and over 2 million ...
