Neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation

open access: yesАнналы клинической и экспериментальной неврологии, 2017
Neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA) is aclinically and genetically heterogeneous group of hereditary (predominantlyautosomal recessive) progressive disorders of the CNSwith a common feature of iron accumulation in basal ganglia ...

Genetic heterogeneity of murine coronaviruses [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Virology, 1983
Several mouse hepatitis viruses (MHV) with different pathogenicity were studied by oligonucleotide fingerprinting. Two strains, MHV-K and MHV-D, which were isolated in Japan and, which cause anaplasia and necrosis of bone marrow and diarrhea, respectively, were found to be closely related to MHV-A59, the prototype MHV.

Phenotypic Plasticity, Bet-Hedging, and Androgen Independence in Prostate Cancer: Role of Non-Genetic Heterogeneity

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2018
It is well known that genetic mutations can drive drug resistance and lead to tumor relapse. Here, we focus on alternate mechanisms—those without mutations, such as phenotypic plasticity and stochastic cell-to-cell variability that can also evade drug ...

Modelling stem cell differentiation related processes—A practical overview for biologists

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Stem cell differentiation is complex and difficult to control experimentally. This review introduces suitable computational modelling approaches that can support stem cell research, from mechanistic ODE and abstract models to multiscale and deep learning methods.

Integrative analysis of large-scale loss-of-function screens identifies robust cancer-associated genetic interactions

open access: yeseLife, 2020
Genetic interactions, including synthetic lethal effects, can now be systematically identified in cancer cell lines using high-throughput genetic perturbation screens.

Genetic conflicts and intercellular heterogeneity [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Evolutionary Biology, 2004
Adaptation is what elevates biology above mere chemistry and physics, and the salient feature of adaptation is that it is generally associated with individual organisms. The edge of an organism is a crucial boundary, within which we generally find adaptive cooperation and outside of which we find competition and conflict.

Design and analysis strategies for robust microbiome ageing research

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The gut microbiome changes with age and associates with age‐related morbidity and mortality, establishing it as a potential biomarker and intervention target for ageing. Realising this potential requires methodological rigour, yet distinguishing biological signals from methodological artefacts remains challenging across cohorts. This review provides an

Genome-wide association study results for educational attainment aid in identifying genetic heterogeneity of schizophrenia

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Higher educational attainment (EA) is negatively associated with schizophrenia (SZ). However, recent studies found a positive genetic correlation between EA and SZ.

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Decoding the dynamic extracellular matrix in cancer—3D models and bioscaffolds rewire the rules of tumor progression

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cancer progression is regulated by the dynamic matrix code of the tumor microenvironment, which influences cellular behavior and disease development. Importantly, matrix remodeling in three‐dimensional cancer models more accurately reflects in vivo conditions compared to conventional two‐dimensional systems.
