MiRNA-34 and stress response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Psychiatric disorders are known to result from a strong interaction between genetic predisposition and environmental factors, mainly exposure to stressful events. Environmental events can modulate genes expression, possibly via epigenetic mechanisms, and

Extracting DNA from Embalmed Tissue to Study Genetic Predisposition to Degenerative Disc Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
INTRODUCTION. According to a prominent study, 80-90% of people will show some evidence of degenerative disc disease (DDD) by age 50. Researchers have proposed that a Q326W substitution in the COL9A2 gene increases susceptibility to DDD.

Predisposition to Graves’ disease and Graves’ ophthalmopathy by genetic variants of IL2RA [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Molecular Medicine, 2020
Previous studies have identified that Th17/Treg cells were involved in the occurrence and development of Graves' disease (GD). This study aimed at clarifying the association between GD susceptibility and nine single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of Th17/Treg cell-related genes, including IL2RA, miR27a, miR182, and FoxO1. A two-stage association study
