A plethora of factors contribute to cognitive impairment in Alzheimer's disease (AD), including neuroinflammation, synaptic dysfunction and gene alteration. In search of transcription factors controlling dysregulated genes in AD, we identified that the histone demethylase …
Read PDFLamin B1 is a structural component of the nuclear lamina that participates in genome organization and transcriptional control. During adaptive immune responses, B lymphocytes in germinal centers (GCs) undergo clonal expansion and programmed DNA damage …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>Diabetic foot ulcer (DFU), a condition marked by high rates of recurrence, amputation, and mortality, represents one of the major challenges in diabetes management. RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) are pivotal for post-transcriptional regulation in diabetic complications. …
Read PDFCancer molecular subtype classification is an essential component of precision oncology which provides insights into cancer prognosis and guides targeted therapy. Despite the growing applications of AI for cancer molecular subtype classification, challenges persist due …
Read PDFFoxQ2 is a highly conserved Forkhead-box transcription factor expressed anteriorly in cnidarians and bilaterians, yet its evolution is marked by rapid divergence and lineage-specific duplications or losses. Moreover, its presence and localization in vertebrate groups …
Read PDF<h4>Motivation</h4>The advent of spatially resolved transcriptomics (SRT) has revolutionized our understanding of tissue molecular microenvironments by enabling the study of gene expression in its spatial context. However, many SRT platforms lack single-cell resolution, necessitating cell-type …
Read PDFThe advent of comprehensive genomic sequencing has catalysed the emergence of paediatric precision medicine platforms globally. These have established the feasibility of profiling tumours at scale, enhancing our understanding of the genetic landscape of paediatric …
Read PDFMaintenance of pluripotency is a multifactorial process in which NF-κB is a negative regulator. Our previous work identified a chromatin role for IκBα, the master regulator of NF-κB signaling, that is critical for the proper …
Read PDF<i>Plasmodium falciparum</i> is responsible for what appears to be a never-ending public health issue in the developing world. With repeated infections, a gradual semi-immunity to severe malaria can be acquired, but this is disrupted when …
Read PDFThe limited regenerative capacity of human nervous tissue compared to other species has long fascinated researchers. Remarkably, non-mammalian vertebrates such as teleost fish and axolotls possess robust regenerative abilities, capable of regenerating entire limbs and …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>Sézary syndrome (SS) is an aggressive and leukemic variant of Cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma (CTCL) with an incidence of 1 case per million people per year. It is characterized by a complex and heterogeneous profile of …
Read PDF<h4>Objective</h4>To determine whether rapamycin affects HLA-B27-mediated gut inflammation in experimental spondyloarthritis (SpA).<h4>Methods</h4>HLA-B27/human β<sub>2</sub>-microglobulin transgenic (B27-Tg) rats with gut inflammation were treated with rapamycin (1.5 mg/kg intraperitoneally, 3 times a week) or vehicle for 5 weeks. …
Read PDF<b>Background</b>: The integration of multi-omics data, such as genomics and transcriptomics, into artificial intelligence models has advanced precision medicine. However, their clinical applicability remains limited due to model complexity. We integrated DNA mutation, RNA expression, …
Read PDFAccurate identification of the genetic determinants of rare diseases is essential for effective recurrence-risk management and informed reproductive decision-making. Although whole-exome sequencing (WES) and whole-genome sequencing (WGS) have significantly improved diagnostic capabilities, a subset of …
Read PDFThe <i>Plasmodium</i> ookinete is a unique invasive stage which is formed following the fertilization of gametes in mosquito midguts after ingestion of infected mammalian blood. Unlike merozoites and sporozoites, ookinetes do not differentiate and proliferate …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>Differential expression (DE) analysis of RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) data are cornerstone of transcriptomic research. Widely used statistical frameworks are primarily optimized to detect monotonic mean shifts between conditions and may therefore overlook genes or microRNAs …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>The Indicator Cell Assay Platform (iCAP) is a novel tool for blood-based diagnostics that uses living cells as biosensors to integrate and amplify weak, multivalent disease signals present in patient serum. In the platform, standardized …
