Microbiome and aging: Trajectories of microbiome age across human ecosystems and their systemic effects

open access: yesiMeta, EarlyView.
Microbiome age (MA) has emerged as an innovative biomarker of biological aging, reflecting host aging trajectories through dynamic alterations in microbial composition, function, and host–microbe interactions across multiple body ecosystems. Diverse computational strategies—including traditional machine learning, deep learning, and multi‐omics ...

Genome-wide association study of genetic determinants of LDL-c response to atorvastatin therapy: importnace of Lp(a) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We carried out a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of LDL-c response to statin using data from participants in the Collaborative Atorvastatin Diabetes Study (CARDS; n = 1,156), the Anglo-Scandinavian Cardiac Outcomes Trial (ASCOT; n = 895), and the ...

Omics GWAS: A Multi‐Omics Integrative Analysis Platform for Genome‐Wide Association Studies

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT With the rapid advancement of genome‐wide association studies (GWAS), downstream analyses of GWAS data have become essential for elucidating the genetic mechanisms that underlie complex diseases. However, current post‐GWAS analyses face numerous challenges, including heterogeneous data formats, challenges in multi‐omics integration, and ...

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.

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.

Aberrant alternative splicing of purinergic receptor P2RX4 prevents sensitivity towards combinatorial treatment in colorectal and pancreatic cancer

open access: yesThe Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Recently, we suggested the combination of chemotherapy and P2RX4 inhibition as a promising novel therapeutic approach for P2RX4‐expressing epithelial tumors to prevent paracrine resistance. Here, we aimed to assess whether determining P2RX4 expression status in colorectal and pancreatic cancer patients would allow stratification of potentially

Optical mapping reveals a higher level of large‐scale structural variants in a family with paternally transmitted myotonic dystrophy and independent Parkinson's disease

open access: yesThe Journal of Pathology, EarlyView.
Abstract Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a clinically challenging multisystem neuromuscular hereditary disorder, with generational increase in severity and earlier age at onset. It is caused by an unstable cytosine‐thymine‐guanine repeat expansion at the DMPK locus, accompanied by associated genetic and epigenetic modifications.

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.

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 ...
