e3SIM: epidemiological-ecological-evolutionary simulation framework for genomic epidemiology

open access: yes
Infectious disease dynamics are driven by the complex interplay of epidemiological, ecological, and evolutionary processes. Accurately modeling these interactions is crucial for understanding pathogen spread and informing public health strategies.

Cholesterol Promotes Lung Adenocarcinoma Brain Metastasis by Stabilizing EGFR Protein to Drive EMT, Metabolic Reprogramming, and Premetastatic Niche Formation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Cholesterol is revealed as a multitasking fuel for lung adenocarcinoma brain metastasis: it locks EGFR at the membrane to sustain AKT/NF‐κB–driven glycolysis and EMT, loosens the blood–brain barrier by promoting Claudin‐5 loss, and rewires microglia through IL‐4R lipid‐raft–JAK1/STAT6 signaling.

A Population‐Based Assessment of Cancer Risk in Children With VACTERL

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cancer risk in children with VACTERL, a nonrandom co‐occurrence of ≥ 3 defects (vertebral, anal, cardiac, tracheoesophogeal fistula, renal, and limb), remains unclear. We evaluated this association in a population‐based study. We analyzed data from the Genetic Overlap Between Anomalies and Cancer in Kids (GOBACK) Study, a US registry linkage ...

Are There Causal Associations Between Obsessive‐Compulsive Disorder and Cardiometabolic Phenotypes? A Genetic Correlation and Bi‐Directional Mendelian Randomization Study

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part B: Neuropsychiatric Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In epidemiological studies, obsessive‐compulsive disorder (OCD) is robustly associated with increased risk of cardiometabolic disorders, including cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, and obesity. However, the mechanisms behind these associations are unclear. We conducted genetic correlation analyses to explore shared genetic etiology and

Flankophile: a bioinformatic pipeline for prokaryotic genomic synteny analysis

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum
Analysis of flanking region sequences can be useful when comparing mobile prokaryotic sequences from different bacterial isolates or metagenomes. Here, we report a new bioinformatics tool, a pipeline called Flankophile, which can analyze flanking regions

Association studies of up to 1.2 million individuals yield new insights into the genetic etiology of tobacco and alcohol use. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Tobacco and alcohol use are leading causes of mortality that influence risk for many complex diseases and disorders1. They are heritable2,3 and etiologically related4,5 behaviors that have been resistant to gene discovery efforts6-11.

Post-genome respiratory epidemiology: a multidisciplinary challenge [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Respiratory Journal, 2004
The introduction of genetic approaches in respiratory epidemiology is novel for most epidemiologists, and the post-genome phase poses new challenges. After describing specific questions pertinent to the field of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, two main methodological aspects regarding technological and scientific advances are ...

Epstein–Barr Virus, Lower Vitamin D, Low Sun Exposure, and HLA‐DRB1*1501 Risk Variant Share Common Epigenetic Pathways Leading to Multiple Sclerosis Onset

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objectives Multiple sclerosis (MS) onset risk factors include Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) indices (including host response), lower serum 25‐vitamin D (25(OH)D) levels, low sun exposure, and HLA‐DRB1*1501. The underlying molecular mechanisms are unclear. Here, we examined mediation through differential DNA methylation (DNAm) to better understand possible ...

Tenecteplase Versus Alteplase for First‐Pass Reperfusion in Basilar Artery Occlusion Stroke Thrombectomy

open access: yesAnnals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective The first‐pass effect (FPE), defined as excellent reperfusion after a single attempt, is associated with improved outcomes in large vessel occlusion stroke. We evaluated whether intravenous tenecteplase (TNK) compared with alteplase (TPA) increases the likelihood of FPE in basilar artery occlusion (BAO).
