Genomic Structural Variations Provide Insights Into Litter Size and Teat Number Traits in Hu Sheep

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Here, we conducted whole genome sequencing on 300 Hu sheep with an average depth of 16.51X. Two candidate genes associated with litter size and teat number traits were identified, namely MAST2 and AFDN. ABSTRACT Litter size and the teat number are important economic indicators in sheep production.

Case‐Based Immunology: B Cells and Systemic Sclerosis Interstitial Lung Disease

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is an important complication of systemic sclerosis (SSc), with high mortality and morbidity. Recent clinical studies in SSc‐ILD have led to US Food and Drug Administration–approved therapies in SSc‐ILD. Importantly, evidence from these studies has been extrapolated to guide management of ILDs of other systemic autoimmune

Distinct HLA Associations for Antibody Multireactivity With Citrulline‐Containing Type II Collagen Epitopes Versus More Limited Antibody Reactivity With Citrulline‐Containing IgG Epitopes in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Anticitrullinated protein antibodies (ACPAs) in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) can be promiscuous, with cross‐reactive binding to many antigens containing short motifs, or private with little cross‐reactivity. Also, ACPA reactivity patterns differ among patients with RA, including for motif‐containing epitopes in important self‐antigens like ...

Distinct Effects of Complement C4A and C4B Copy Numbers in Systemic Sclerosis Serological and Clinical Subtypes

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Complement component 4 (C4), encoded by C4A and C4B within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) on chromosome 6, regulates the immune response and clears immune complexes. The variable copy number (CN) of C4 genes and retroviral human endogenous retrovirus K (HERV‐K) element influence its function.

Pharmacogenetic CYP2B6 variants affect steroid hormone metabolism in human breast cancer cells

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Common genetic CYP2B6 variants correlate with adverse breast cancer outcome. The oestrogen metabolites estriol and 16‐epiestriol, which are formed downstream of CYP2B6‐catalysed 16α/β‐hydroxytestosterone, may be linked to elevated breast cancer risk and might increase due to the demonstrated CYP2B6 variants‐related metabolic shifts.

The power of many: when genetics met yeasts and high‐throughput

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In recent years, complex technological capabilities have evolved, driven by the need to solve complex and integrative biological questions through global analyses. New equipment allows the scaling up and automation of processes which previously were carried out on a very limited scale.

An Update to the Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium (CPIC) SLCO1B1 Allele Functionality Table Leveraging Evidence from Participants of Predominantly Sub‐Saharan African Ancestry

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
The Clinical Pharmacogenetics Implementation Consortium (CPIC) has formally updated the SLCO1B1 allele functionality table based on new evidence. Notably, the alleles studied (SLCO1B1 *9, *31, *41) are enriched in the genomes of patients historically excluded from pharmacogenomics research.

Lower Dose‐Normalized Tacrolimus Exposure in CYP3A5*6 vs. *3 Loss‐of‐Function Allele Carriers: A Longitudinal Retrospective Real‐World Study in Kidney Transplant Recipients

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Pharmacogenomic research has historically focused on individuals of European ancestry, leading to the underrepresentation of genetic variants common in non‐European populations. This bias is exemplified by CYP3A5*6, a functionally consequential variant common in individuals of African ancestry (MAF: 11–19%) but virtually absent in Europeans (MAF: 0.15%)
