Network-assisted analysis of GWAS data identifies a functionally-relevant gene module for childhood-onset asthma

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
The number of genetic factors associated with asthma remains limited. To identify new genes with an undetected individual effect but collectively influencing asthma risk, we conducted a network-assisted analysis that integrates outcomes of genome-wide ...

Navigating the landscape of clinical genetic testing: insights and challenges in rare disease diagnostics [PDF]

open access: yesChildhood Kidney Diseases
With the rapid evolution of diagnostic tools, particularly next-generation sequencing, the identification of genetic diseases, predominantly those with pediatric-onset, has significantly advanced. However, this progress presents challenges that span from

Known allosteric proteins have central roles in genetic disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Allostery is a form of protein regulation, where ligands that bind sites located apart from the active site can modify the activity of the protein. The molecular mechanisms of allostery have been extensively studied, because allosteric sites are less conserved than active sites, and drugs targeting them are more specific than drugs binding the active ...

DENTITION CHANGES IN GENETIC DISEASES

open access: yesRomanian Journal of Oral Rehabilitation
This paperwork aims to identify the dentition’s changes in genetic diseases and to find solutions to solve them. Method: We studied 31 patients with different genetic diseases (Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, Prader-Willy syndrome, Bardet-Biel syndrome,

The role of mutation rate variation and genetic diversity in the architecture of human disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We have investigated the role that the mutation rate and the structure of genetic variation at a locus play in determining whether a gene is involved in disease. We predict that the mutation rate and its genetic diversity should be higher in genes associated with disease, unless all genes that could cause disease have already been identified ...

Endothelial Progenitor Cells: Relevant Players in the Vasculopathy and Lung Fibrosis Associated with the Presence of Interstitial Lung Disease in Systemic Sclerosis Patients

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
Endothelial progenitor cells (EPC), which are key effectors in the physiologic vascular network, have been described as relevant players in autoimmune diseases.

A weighted U statistic for association analysis considering genetic heterogeneity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Converging evidence suggests that common complex diseases with the same or similar clinical manifestations could have different underlying genetic etiologies. While current research interests have shifted toward uncovering rare variants and structural variations predisposing to human diseases, the impact of heterogeneity in genetic studies of complex ...

Ontology Based Information Extraction for Disease Intelligence [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Research in Computer Science, 2 (6): pp. 7-19, November 2012. doi:10.7815/ijorcs.26.2012.051, 2012
Disease Intelligence (DI) is based on the acquisition and aggregation of fragmented knowledge of diseases at multiple sources all over the world to provide valuable information to doctors, researchers and information seeking community. Some diseases have their own characteristics changed rapidly at different places of the world and are reported on ...

FinnGen provides genetic insights from a well-phenotyped isolated population

open access: yesNature, 2023
Genome-wide association studies of individuals from an isolated population (data from the Finnish biobank study FinnGen) and consequent meta-analyses facilitate the identification of previously unknown coding variant associations for both rare and common
