The study of gene regulatory network and protein–protein interaction network is believed to be fundamental to the understanding of molecular processes and functions in systems biology. In this study, the authors are interested in single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) level and construct SNP–SNP interaction network to understand genetic characters and ...

Examination of runs of homozygosity in relation to height in an endogamous Namibian population
Abstract Objectives Height is a complex, highly heritable polygenic trait subject to both genetic composition and environmental influences. Recent studies suggest that a large proportion of height heritability is determined by the cumulative effect of many low allele frequency variants across the genome. Previous research has also identified an inverse

Handling polymorphic algebraic effects [PDF]
Algebraic effects and handlers are a powerful abstraction mechanism to represent and implement control effects. In this work, we study their extension with parametric polymorphism that allows abstracting not only expressions but also effects and handlers.

Functional single nucleotide polymorphism-based association studies
Association studies hold great promise for the elucidation of the genetic basis of diseases. Studies based on functional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or on linkage disequilibrium (LD) represent two main types of designs.

Single nucleotide polymorphisms and periodontitis
The susceptibility to various diseases is studied with association to genetic polymorphisms. Among these polymorphisms, single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are very common throughout the genome. The recent advances in genetic assay techniques and increase in SNP databases are paving a way for investigation of susceptibility genes for periodontitis ...

On polymorphism-homogeneous relational structures and their clones [PDF]
A relational structure is homomorphism-homogeneous if every homomorphism between finite substructures extends to an endomorphism of the structure. This notion was introduced recently by Cameron and Ne\v{s}et\v{r}il. In this paper we consider a strengthening of homomorphism-homogeneity --- we call a relational structure polymorphism-homogeneous if every

Approximate polymorphisms [PDF]
For a function $g\colon\{0,1\}^m\to\{0,1\}$, a function $f\colon \{0,1\}^n\to\{0,1\}$ is called a $g$-polymorphism if their actions commute: $f(g(\mathsf{row}_1(Z)),\ldots,g(\mathsf{row}_n(Z))) = g(f(\mathsf{col}_1(Z)),\ldots,f(\mathsf{col}_m(Z)))$ for all $Z\in\{0,1\}^{n\times m}$.

Crosstalk between gut microbiota and tumor: tumors could cause gut dysbiosis and metabolic imbalance
In this research, we analyzed the relationship between gut microbiota and tumor. We discovered that both subcutaneous and metastatic tumors would alter the composition and metabolic function of gut microbiota. Meanwhile, fecal microbiota transplantation also indicated the anti‐tumor role of the gut microbiota, revealing the crosstalk between tumor and ...
