1st INCF Workshop on Genetic Animal Models for Brain Diseases [PDF]
The INCF Secretariat organized a workshop to focus on the “role of neuroinformatics in the processes of building, evaluating, and using genetic animal models for brain diseases” in Stockholm, December 13–14, 2009.

Phase Diagrams of Quasispecies Theory with Recombination and Horizontal Gene Transfer
We consider how transfer of genetic information between individuals influences the phase diagram and mean fitness of both the Eigen and the parallel, or Crow-Kimura, models of evolution.

Genetic and environmental links between self-reports and parent-reports of child personality [PDF]
Personality ratings have been consistently found to be reliable and moderately heritable, but interrater agreement between self- and other-report of personality are low-to-moderate, particularly in childhood samples. The current study aims to examine the

Determination of Nonlinear Genetic Architecture using Compressed Sensing
We introduce a statistical method that can reconstruct nonlinear genetic models (i.e., including epistasis, or gene-gene interactions) from phenotype-genotype (GWAS) data.

Misspecification in mixed-model based association analysis
Additive genetic variance in natural populations is commonly estimated using mixed models, in which the covariance of the genetic effects is modeled by a genetic similarity matrix derived from a dense set of markers.

Fused in sarcoma (FUS) inhibits milk production efficiency in mammals
Efficient milk production in mammals confers evolutionary advantages by facilitating the transmission of energy from mother to offspring. However, the regulatory mechanism responsible for the gradual establishment of milk production efficiency in mammals,

Targeting cuproptosis by zinc pyrithione in triple-negative breast cancer
Summary: Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) poses a considerable challenge due to its aggressive nature. Notably, metal ion-induced cell death, such as ferroptosis, has garnered significant attention and demonstrated potential implications for cancer ...

Evolution in range expansions with competition at rough boundaries. [PDF]
When a biological population expands into new territory, genetic drift develops an enormous influence on evolution at the propagating front. In such range expansion processes, fluctuations in allele frequencies occur through stochastic spatial wandering ...

The mutational landscapes of genetic and chemical models of Kras-driven lung cancer
Next-generation sequencing of human tumours has refined our understanding of the mutational processes operative in cancer initiation and progression, yet major questions remain regarding the factors that induce driver mutations and the processes that ...

ABSTRACT Background The delipid extracorporeal lipoprotein filter from plasma (DELP) treatment can effectively reduce blood lipid, increase blood flow, and improve neurological deficits in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS). However, its effect on vision and retinal microcirculation in stroke patients has never been reported.
