Fast Identification of Biological Pathways Associated with a Quantitative Trait Using Group Lasso with Overlaps [PDF]
Where causal SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) tend to accumulate within biological pathways, the incorporation of prior pathways information into a statistical model is expected to increase the power to detect true associations in a genetic ...

Identification of gene pathways implicated in Alzheimer's disease using longitudinal imaging phenotypes with sparse regression [PDF]
We present a new method for the detection of gene pathways associated with a multivariate quantitative trait, and use it to identify causal pathways associated with an imaging endophenotype characteristic of longitudinal structural change in the brains ...

The thiopurine drugs are purine antimetabolites widely used in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia, autoimmune disorders (e.g. Crohn’s disease and rheumatoid arthritis) and of organ transplant recipients. As inactive prodrugs, 6-mercaptopurine (6-MP), 6-thioguanine (6-TG) and azathioprine require intracellular activation, catalyzed by ...

Multivesicular bodies (MVBs) deliver cargo destined for degradation to the vacuole or lysosome. The ESCRT (endosomal sorting complex required for transport) pathway is a key mediator of MVB biogenesis, but it also plays critical roles in retroviral budding and cytokinetic abscission.

The Pathway Tools Pathway Prediction Algorithm [PDF]
The PathoLogic component of the Pathway Tools software performs prediction of metabolic pathways in sequenced and annotated genomes. This article provides a detailed presentation of the PathoLogic algorithm. The algorithm consists of two phases. The reactome inference phase infers the reactions catalyzed by the organism from the set of enzymes present ...

Background Multimorbidity-risk is established early in life, therefore reducing modifiable risk factors such as overweight or obesity may, in part, tackle the burden of multimorbidity in later life.

Targeting cancer stem cell pathways for cancer therapy
Since cancer stem cells (CSCs) were first identified in leukemia in 1994, they have been considered promising therapeutic targets for cancer therapy. These cells have self-renewal capacity and differentiation potential and contribute to multiple tumor ...

KEGG: new perspectives on genomes, pathways, diseases and drugs
KEGG (http://www.kegg.jp/ or http://www.genome.jp/kegg/) is an encyclopedia of genes and genomes. Assigning functional meanings to genes and genomes both at the molecular and higher levels is the primary objective of the KEGG database project.
