Concealed for a Long Time on the Marches of Empires: Hepatitis B Virus Genotype I [PDF]
Genotype I, the penultimate HBV genotype to date, was granted the status of a bona fide genotype only in the XXIst century after some hesitations. The reason for these hesitations was that genotype I is a complex recombinant virus formed with segments ...

Molecular Basis for Hypochondroplasia in Japan
Hypochondroplasia is an autosomal dominant genetic disorder due to a heterozygous pathogenic variant of the FGFR3 gene. The early diagnosis of hypochondroplasia is necessary, since growth hormone is effective for improving adult height.

Ala54Thr Fatty Acid-Binding Protein 2 (FABP2) Polymorphism in Recurrent Depression: Associations with Fatty Acid Concentrations and Waist Circumference [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Fatty acid (FA)-alterations may mediate the mutual association between Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD). However, etiology of observed FA-alterations in MDD and CVD remains largely unclear.
