Molecular evolution of candidate male reproductive genes in the brown algal model Ectocarpus [PDF]

, 2016
Background: Evolutionary studies of genes that mediate recognition between sperm and egg contribute to our understanding of reproductive isolation and speciation. Surface receptors involved in fertilization are targets of sexual selection, reinforcement,

A model to predict disease progression in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD): the ADPKD Outcomes Model. [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is the leading inheritable cause of end-stage renal disease (ESRD); however, the natural course of disease progression is heterogeneous between patients.

Dominant and Recessive Polycystic Kidney Disease: A Novel Molecular Diagnostics Approach Based on Next-Generation Sequencing [PDF]

, 2017
Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD) is the most common genetic cause of kidney failure in children and adults and can be inherited as an autosomal dominant trait (ADPKD) or an autosomal recessive trait (ARPKD). ADPKD is the most common form, characterized by
