Refining the Genetic Contribution to Type 2 Diabetes Subtypes
ABSTRACT Background Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a complex and highly heterogeneous disease driven in part by genetic predisposition and can be stratified into clinical subgroups to aid disease management. We recently grouped T2D subjects in the Qatar Biobank (QBB) cohort into Severe Insulin‐Deficient Diabetes (SIDD), Severe Insulin‐Resistant Diabetes ...

Polyphenism Through RNA Chemical Modifications
ABSTRACT Polyphenism, the capacity of a single genotype to produce discrete phenotypes in response to environmental cues, has long served as a model for understanding developmental plasticity. While classical studies have highlighted hormonal signalling and transcription‐factor‐driven gene regulatory networks that mediate these environmentally induced ...

Epitranscriptomic marks are highly variable across life stages and tissues, complicating comparisons between species. Using m6A consensus motifs, we developed a genomic indicator reflecting transcript methylability, the DRACH o/e score, that we used to investigate epitranscriptomic features and associated functions across nine bilaterian species.

ABSTRACT Excess adiposity is not a recently developed problem but has existed since at least the upper Paleolithic, allowing evolutionary selection pressures to adapt the physiology of the pregnant woman and the feto‐placental unit for maternal and fetal protection.
