Microbiome−host proteostasis crosstalk—An emerging perspective on mechanisms and interventions toward healthy longevity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Proteostasis and the gut microbiota play a key role in shaping host physiology. Microbiota‐derived metabolites, vitamins, and RNA modulate host proteostasis. Findings from model systems, including C. elegans, indicate microbes can either stabilize or disrupt host proteostasis.

Quantifying risk modifiers of hereditary hemochromatosis using genomic and electronic health record data

open access: yesJHEP Reports
Background & Aims: Hereditary hemochromatosis is an autosomal recessive disorder of excessive iron accumulation. Early diagnosis enables treatment before organ damage. The C282Y variant in the HFE gene is the main cause, but its penetrance of only 20%

From mice to humans—divergent strategies for intestinal homeostasis and regeneration

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Recent advances such as organoid genome editing, xenotransplantation, imaging, and whole‐genome sequencing have enabled direct studies of human intestinal stem cells (ISCs). These studies reveal species‐specific features, including slower ISC proliferation, distinct injury responses, slower somatic mutation accumulation in humans, and an inverse ...

Association between night shift work and risk of osteoporosis and osteoporosis-related pathological fracture

open access: yesFrontiers in Public Health
BackgroundNight shift work may increase the risk of various diseases, this study aims to explore the associations of both past and current night shift rotations with osteoporosis and its related fracture risks, and to evaluate the role of potential ...

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

Cancer genetic risk assessment - Studies on genetic testing, genetic counselling and risk management [PDF]

open access: yes
The assessment for hereditary cancer is a consultative service in clinical genetics and cancer care that includes genetic testing and genetic counselling for patients and their relatives, defining elevated cancer risk, and recommendations for risk ...

Germline HLA heterozygosity is associated with decreased lung cancer risk

open access: yesHGG Advances
Summary: Heterozygosity at human leukocyte antigen (HLA) loci may improve lung cancer immunosurveillance by increasing recognition of the tumor by the immune system.

Principles in genetic risk assessment

open access: yesTherapeutics and Clinical Risk Management, 2005
Risk assessment constitutes an essential component of genetic counseling and testing, and the genetic risk should be estimated as accurately as possible for individual and family decision making. All relevant information retrieved from population studies and pedigree and genetic testing enhances the accuracy of the assessment of an individual's genetic

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 ...
