Single‐Cell Level Characterization of B Cell Depletion and Repopulation Following Rituximab in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Rituximab, a CD20+ B cell depletion therapy, is frequently used to treat systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). However, variability in patient response highlights the need for a deeper understanding of the underlying immune cell dynamics of B cell depletion and repopulation.

High Endothelial Venules in Small Cell Lung Cancer: Prognostic Subtypes and Therapeutic Implications for Immunoradiotherapy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is a highly aggressive neuroendocrine malignancy with an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment, and current immunotherapy provides limited benefit. This highlights the need to identify microenvironmental features enabling effective immune responses.

Prioritizing susceptibility genes for the prognosis of male-pattern baldness with transcriptome-wide association study

open access: yesHuman Genomics
Background Male-pattern baldness (MPB) is the most common cause of hair loss in men. It can be categorized into three types: type 2 (T2), type 3 (T3), and type 4 (T4), with type 1 (T1) being considered normal.

Precision Mapping of Retinal Disease: Identification of Differential Progression Trajectories via Imaging Phenomics

open access: yesiMetaMed, EarlyView.
Applying single‐cell RNA‐seq techniques to large‐scale clinical phenotypic data enables the discovery of differential disease progression trajectories and the construction of data‐driven progression scores. These can then be integrated into precision medicine studies to investigate the drivers of patient‐specific disease outcomes. ABSTRACT We propose a

Genome-wide associate study identifies five new schizophrenia loci [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
We examined the role of common genetic variation in schizophrenia in a genome-wide association study of substantial size: a stage 1 discovery sample of 21,856 individuals of European ancestry and a stage 2 replication sample of 29,839 independent ...

Genetic investigation into the broad health implications of caffeine: evidence from phenome-wide, proteome-wide and metabolome-wide Mendelian randomization

open access: yesBMC Medicine
Background Caffeine is one of the most utilized drugs in the world, yet its clinical effects are not fully understood. Circulating caffeine levels are influenced by the interplay between consumption behaviour and metabolism.
