Development and External Validation of a Genetic Risk Score for Pain in Rheumatoid Arthritis
Objective Several single‐nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been associated with chronic pain syndromes. Our objective was to determine whether genetic variants are associated with pain and disease activity in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Methods Participants were included from two independent RA cohorts: FORWARD (National Databank for Rheumatic ...

Pain, usually caused by a strong or disruptive stimulus, is an unpleasant sensation that serves as a warning to organisms. To adapt to extreme environments, some terrestrial animals have evolved to be inherently insensitive to pain.

Genetic neurological channelopathies: molecular genetics and clinical phenotypes [PDF]
Evidence accumulated over recent years has shown that genetic neurological channelopathies can cause many different neurological diseases. Presentations relating to the brain, spinal cord, peripheral nerve or muscle mean that channelopathies can impact ...

Spatial Transcriptomics of Patients With Kaposi Sarcoma Identifies Mechanisms of Immune Evasion
ABSTRACT To identify the cell types that are infected with KSHV and the immune interactions in Kaposi sarcoma (KS) lesions, we performed spatial transcriptomics with seven KS skin tumors. We used a single‐cell RNA‐sequencing reference data set from healthy skin donors with a method to conduct spatially informed cell‐type deconvolution for spatial ...

Identification and In-Silico study of non-synonymous functional SNPs in the human SCN9A gene.
Single nucleotide polymorphisms are the most common form of DNA alterations at the level of a single nucleotide in the genomic sequence. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) were carried to identify potential risk genes or genomic regions by screening ...

Pathogenic copy number variants and SCN1A mutations in patients with intellectual disability and childhood-onset epilepsy [PDF]
Background Copy number variants (CNVs) have been linked to neurodevelopmental disorders such as intellectual disability (ID), autism, epilepsy and psychiatric disease. There are few studies of CNVs in patients with both ID and epilepsy.

ABSTRACT Sensory neuron disorders, such as peripheral neuropathies and trigeminal neuralgia, cause chronic pain and sensory dysfunction; however, regenerative treatments are limited. Human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) provide a powerful platform to model these diseases by generating functional sensory neuron subtypes, including nociceptors and ...

The Concise Guide to PHARMACOLOGY 2025/26: Ion channels
The Concise Guide to Pharmacology 2025/26 marks the seventh edition in this series of biennial publications in the British Journal of Pharmacology. Presented in landscape format, the guide provides a comparative overview of the pharmacology of drug target families. The concise nature of the Concise Guide refers to the style of presentation, being clear,
