Comparative Satellitomics in Arowanas (Telostei, Osteoglossiformes) Sheds Light on the Evolution of Ancient Satellite DNAs

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This work focused on arowana fishes (Teleostei, Osteoglossiformes) as a model; their widespread intercontinental distribution and basal phylogenetic position within Teleostei make them a compelling model for evolutionary research, especially in the realm of satDNA molecular evolution. Through the integration of genomic and chromosomal data, we analyzed

Hepatitis B Virus Infection Status in Japanese Children Prior to Universal Vaccination: Sustained Effectiveness of Mother‐to‐Child Transmission Prevention and Residual Infection Burden

Hepatology Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim To evaluate the effectiveness of prevention of mother‐to‐child transmission (PMTCT) over 25 years, we conducted a nationwide epidemiological survey through a comprehensive assessment of hepatitis B virus (HBV) markers. Methods Two cohorts were recruited before universal vaccination: children aged 9–10 years undergoing school health ...

Genetic basis of Asian diabetes

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent genomic studies in Asian populations have advanced our understanding of the diagnosis, pathophysiology, risk prediction, and precision care of diabetes. Monogenic diabetes, including maturity‐onset diabetes of the young (MODY) and mitochondrial diabetes, highlights the importance of genetic diagnosis for subtype‐specific care.
