A CRISPR-Cas9 sex-ratio distortion system for genetic control. [PDF]
, 2016 Genetic control aims to reduce the ability of insect pest populations to cause harm via the release of modified insects. One strategy is to bias the reproductive sex ratio towards males so that a population decreases in size or is eliminated altogether ...

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.In luminal (ER+) breast carcinoma (BC), miRNA profiling identified miR‐195‐5p as a key regulator of proliferation that targets CHEK1, CDC25A, and CCNE1. High CHEK1 expression correlates with worse relapse‐free survival after chemotherapy, especially in patients with luminal A subtype.

Natural selection reduced diversity on human Y chromosomes [PDF]
, 2013 The human Y chromosome exhibits surprisingly low levels of genetic diversity. This could result from neutral processes if the effective population size of males is reduced relative to females due to a higher variance in the number of offspring from males

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 15, Issue 7, Page 1144-1158, July 2025.Liver‐specific knockout of N6‐methyladenosine (m6A) methyltransferase METTL3 significantly accelerated hepatic tumor initiation under various oncogenic challenges, contrary to the previously reported oncogenic role of METTL3 in liver cancer cell lines or xenograft models. Mechanistically, METTL3 deficiency reduced m6A deposition on Manf transcripts and

Movement of X Chromosome in Epileptic Cortex
Pediatric Neurology Briefs, 1989 Chronic uncontrolled seizure activity was linked to specific positional changes of the X chromosome in neurons of cortical seizure foci from both male and female patients at Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, Connecticut.

FEBS Open Bio, Volume 15, Issue 7, Page 1159-1175, July 2025.The A3 adenosine receptors (A3ARs) are overexpressed in prostate cancer. AR 292 and AR 357, as A3AR antagonists, are capable of blocking proliferation, modulating the expression of drug transporter genes involved in chemoresistance, ferroptosis, and the hypoxia response, and inducing cell death.

European Medical Journal, 2017 Many autoimmune diseases, such as lupus and Sjögren’s syndrome, have a female bias and adult onset. One possible explanation for this bias is disruption of the inactive X chromosome, which is a major epigenetic feature in female cells. Indeed, only one X

Ulcerative colitis-risk loci on chromosomes 1p36 and 12q15 found by genome-wide association study. [PDF]
, 2009 Ulcerative colitis is a chronic inflammatory disease of the colon that presents as diarrhea and gastrointestinal bleeding. We performed a genome-wide association study using DNA samples from 1,052 individuals with ulcerative colitis and preexisting data ...

A scaffold for X chromosome inactivation
Human Genetics, 2011 X chromosome inactivation (XCI), the silencing of one of the two X chromosomes in XX female cells, equalises the dosage of X-linked genes relative to XY males. The process is mediated by the non-coding RNA X inactive specific transcript (Xist) that binds in cis and propagates along the inactive X chromosome elect, triggering chromosome-wide silencing ...

Comparative study of adenosine 3′‐pyrophosphokinase domains of MuF polymorphic toxins
FEBS Open Bio, Volume 15, Issue 7, Page 1103-1112, July 2025.With the ultimate goal of understanding the association of toxin‐immunity modules to temperate phages, we characterized toxins from three prophages and examined cross‐protection from immunity proteins. The toxins exhibit adenosine 3′‐pyrophosphokinase activity and are toxic in Escherichia coli.
