A comprehensive analysis of the health effects associated with smoking in the largest population using UK Biobank genotypic and phenotypic data

open access: yesHeliyon
Background: Smoking is a widespread behavior, while the relationship between smoking and various diseases remains a topic of debate. Objective: We conducted analysis to further examine the identified associations and assess potential causal relationships.

Single‐Cell RNA Editing Identifies T Cell ADAR1 as a Key Regulator of Immune Exhaustion and Anti‐PD‐1 Resistance in Colorectal Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Single‐cell RNA editing analysis identifies ADAR1 as a regulator of dysfunctional T cell states in colorectal cancer. Elevated ADAR1 activity promotes T cell exhaustion and impairs antitumor immunity partly through TGF‐β‐SMAD signaling, contributing to anti‐PD‐1 resistance and highlighting T cell ADAR1 as a potential therapeutic target and biomarker ...

A Phenome Wide Association Study of Multiple Sclerosis and COmorbidities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Genome wide association studies (GWAS) have identified relationships between many different genes and diseases. GWAS studies scan whole genomes of many individuals and then associate genetic variants with diseases that the individuals have.

Phenome-Wide Association Study for Alcohol and Nicotine Risk Alleles in 26394 Women [PDF]

open access: yesNeuropsychopharmacology, 2016
To identify novel traits associated with alleles known to predispose to alcohol and nicotine use, we conducted a phenome-wide association study (PheWAS) in a large multi-population cohort. We investigated 7688 African-Americans, 1133 Asian-Americans, 14 081 European-Americans, and 3492 Hispanic-Americans from the Women's Health Initiative, analyzing ...

Phenome‐wide association studies: a new method for functional genomics in humans [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, 2017
AbstractIn experimental physiological research, a common study design for examining the functional role of a gene or a genetic variant is to introduce that genetic variant into a model organism (such as yeast or mouse) and then to search for phenotypic consequences.

Rational design of a lipophilic β‐galactosidase‐responsive near‐infrared probe for in vivo imaging of cellular senescence

open access: yesSmart Molecules, EarlyView.
We developed a lipophilic near‑infrared probe (DCIP‑AcGal) that is specifically activated by senescence‑associated β‑galactosidase. After intravenous injection, it lights up therapy‑induced tumor senescence in living mice. Its optimized lipophilicity also enables blood‑brain barrier crossing to detect natural brain senescence ex vivo. This probe offers

Zebrafish small molecule screens: Taking the phenotypic plunge

open access: yesComputational and Structural Biotechnology Journal, 2016
Target based chemical screens are a mainstay of modern drug discovery, but the effectiveness of this reductionist approach is being questioned in light of declines in pharmaceutical R & D efficiency.

PTEN homozygous deletion is a negative prognostic factor in tumor treating fields‐treated glioblastoma, IDH wildtype patients

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
In a molecularly confirmed cohort of 64 newly diagnosed, TTFields‐treated glioblastomas, IDH‐wildtype, homozygous PTEN deletion was associated with markedly shorter overall survival (368 vs. 603 days) and remained an independent adverse prognostic factor.
