Rare Genetic Diseases: Nature's Experiments on Human Development

open access: yesiScience, 2020
Rare genetic diseases are the result of a continuous forward genetic screen that nature is conducting on humans. Here, we present epistemological and systems biology arguments highlighting the importance of studying these rare genetic diseases.

Low-density lipoprotein receptor genotypes modify the sera metabolome of patients with homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: Homozygous familial hypercholesterolemia (HoFH) is an extremely rare metabolism disorder usually caused by low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) mutations.

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 ...

FoxO1 signaling in B cell malignancies and its therapeutic targeting

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
FoxO1 has context‐specific tumor suppressor or oncogenic character in myeloid and B cell malignancies. This includes tumor‐promoting properties such as stemness maintenance and DNA damage tolerance in acute leukemias, or regulation of cell proliferation and survival, or migration in mature B cell malignancies.

Efficient inference for genetic association studies with multiple outcomes [PDF]

open access: yesBiostatistics, 2017, 2016
Combined inference for heterogeneous high-dimensional data is critical in modern biology, where clinical and various kinds of molecular data may be available from a single study. Classical genetic association studies regress a single clinical outcome on many genetic variants one by one, but there is an increasing demand for joint analysis of many ...

The immunological interface: dendritic cells as key regulators in metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) affects nearly one‐third of the global population and poses a significant risk of progression to cirrhosis or liver cancer. Here, we discuss the roles of hepatic dendritic cell subtypes in MASLD, highlighting their distinct contributions to disease initiation and progression, and their ...

A Partially Functional Linear Modeling Framework for Integrating Genetic, Imaging, and Clinical Data [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
This paper is motivated by the joint analysis of genetic, imaging, and clinical (GIC) data collected in the Alzheimer's Disease Neuroimaging Initiative (ADNI) study. We propose a regression framework based on partially functional linear regression models to map high-dimensional GIC-related pathways for Alzheimer's Disease (AD). We develop a joint model

Insights into PI3K/AKT signaling in B cell development and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This Review explores how the phosphoinositide 3‐kinase and protein kinase B pathway shapes B cell development and drives chronic lymphocytic leukemia, a common blood cancer. It examines how signaling levels affect disease progression, addresses treatment challenges, and introduces novel experimental strategies to improve therapies and patient outcomes.
