A polygenic score for acute vaso-occlusive pain in pediatric sickle cell disease.
Individuals with monogenic disorders can experience variable phenotypes that are influenced by genetic variation. To investigate this in sickle cell disease (SCD), we performed whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of 722 individuals with hemoglobin HbSS or ...

The roles of MMP8/MMP10 polymorphisms in ischemic stroke susceptibility
Abstract Background Ischemic stroke (IS), a multifactorial and polygenic disease, is the most common cause of death. This study aimed to determine the roles of MMP8/MMP10 polymorphisms in IS susceptibility in the Chinese Han population. Methods MMP8 rs1940475 and rs3765620, and MMP10 rs17860949 from 700 IS patients and 700 controls were genotyped by ...

Polygenic risk score: use in migraine research
Background The latest Genome-Wide Association Study identified 38 genetic variants associated with migraine. In this type of studies the significance level is very difficult to achieve (5 × 10− 8) due to multiple testing.

On cross-ancestry cancer polygenic risk scores [PDF]
Polygenic risk scores (PRS) can provide useful information for personalized risk stratification and disease risk assessment, especially when combined with non-genetic risk factors. However, their construction depends on the availability of summary statistics from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) independent from the target sample.

The aberrant expression pattern and prognostic implications of HIVEP3 in AML were explored and validated based on versatile bioinformatics tools. A LASSO model which combined HIVEP3 with ferroptosis regulators was created to predict the prognosis for AML patients.

The Polygenic Score Catalog: an open database for reproducibility and systematic evaluation
Polygenic [risk] scores (PGS) can enhance prediction and understanding of common diseases and traits. However, the reproducibility of PGS and their subsequent applications in biological and clinical research have been hindered by several factors ...

Polygenic risk scores in epilepsy
Abstract An epilepsy diagnosis has large consequences for an individual but is often difficult to make in clinical practice. Novel biomarkers are thus greatly needed. Here, we give an overview of how thousands of common genetic factors that increase the risk for epilepsy can be summarized as epilepsy polygenic risk scores (PRS).

Polygenic risk scores: a biased prediction? [PDF]
A new study highlights the biases and inaccuracies of polygenic risk scores (PRS) when predicting disease risk in individuals from populations other than those used in their derivation. The design bias of workhorse tools used for research, particularly genotyping arrays, contributes to these distortions.

Abstract Background Cancer emergence is associated with a series of cellular transformations that include acquired drug resistance followed by tumor metastasis. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and Hsp90 chaperone are implicated in tumor progression, however, they are not studied in the context of drug resistance. Aims In the present study, we aimed at
