This document discusses the FOXP3 gene as a promising candidate gene in susceptibility to generalized vitiligo. It summarizes that FOXP3 is the master transcription factor that regulates regulatory T cells, which play an important role in preventing autoimmunity. Studies have found associations between polymorphisms in the FOXP3 gene and an increased risk of vitiligo. The document argues that further investigation of FOXP3 genetic variants and their effects on regulatory T cell development and function could provide insights into vitiligo pathogenesis and potential new therapeutic approaches targeting the FOXP3 gene/regulatory T cell network.
Informatics and data analytics to support for exposome-based discoveryChirag Patel
油
The document discusses the need for informatics methods, databases, and standards to support exposome-driven discovery research in a similar way that informatics has supported genomic research. Specifically, it notes that estimates of heritability from twin studies indicate that environmental factors likely play an equally important role as genetics in many traits/diseases. However, the chemical space of the exposome is large and heterogeneous, posing challenges to integrate exposome, genome, and phenome data through approaches like exposome-wide association studies.

This document summarizes a study that analyzed antigen expression patterns in different subtypes of myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) using flow cytometry. Bone marrow samples from 30 newly diagnosed MDS patients classified as refractory anemia (RA), refractory anemia with ringed sideroblasts (RARS), or refractory anemia with excess blasts (RAEB) were analyzed for antigen expression on granulocytic, monocytic, erythroid and lymphoid lineages. The study found no significant differences in antigen expression between subtypes for granulocytic lineages. For erythroid lineages, the percentage of CD71-positive cells was significantly lower in RAEB compared to R
Big data exposome and pediatric outcomesChirag Patel
油
The document discusses the need for a new data-driven approach to discover the role of environmental factors (E) in disease, similar to how genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have elucidated genetic factors (G). It notes that phenotypes are influenced by both G and E, but current heritability estimates indicate G accounts for less than 50% of many complex traits, leaving much of the influence of E unknown. The document proposes developing methods to characterize individuals' "exposomes" - the totality of their environmental exposures - using high-throughput techniques to measure biomarkers of exposure in blood and linking exposomes to health outcomes in large studies. This could help uncover how environmental chemicals, lifestyle factors and other external influences
This document reports on a study of a homozygous PMS2 founder mutation, NM_000535.5:c.2002A>G, identified in Inuit families from Northern Quebec that displayed an attenuated cancer phenotype compared to typical constitutional mismatch repair deficiency (CMMRD). The mutation generates a de novo splice site that competes with the authentic site, resulting in reduced but detectable expression of full-length PMS2 protein in homozygotes. The median age at primary cancer diagnosis was 22 years in 13 individuals homozygous for the mutation, later than the typical age of 8 years for carriers of bi-allelic truncating PMS2 mutations. Residual expression of the full-length PMS2 transcript was
1) The study analyzed the radiation survival of 533 human cancer cell lines across 26 cancer types using a high-throughput profiling platform. It found significant variation in survival both across and within lineages, on the order of 5- to 7-fold difference within lineages.
2) The profiling platform was validated against standard clonogenic survival assays, showing a high correlation between results. Sensitivity to radiation was found to have a normal distribution within most lineages studied.
3) Analyzing genomic features, the study found that higher levels of somatic copy number alterations (SCNAs) in a tumor's genome correlated with increased survival after radiation exposure, possibly by enabling more error-prone DNA repair mechanisms. Certain gene mutations and

This study identified a distinct subgroup of glioma tumors characterized by concerted DNA hypermethylation at many loci (G-CIMP). They analyzed 272 glioblastoma samples and found that 8.8% displayed this G-CIMP phenotype. G-CIMP tumors belonged primarily to the proneural subtype and were associated with IDH1 mutations. Patients with G-CIMP tumors were younger at diagnosis and had significantly improved outcomes. These findings establish G-CIMP as a distinct molecular and clinical subtype of gliomas.

This document provides an introduction to network medicine and discusses its application to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). It defines network medicine as studying cellular, disease, and social networks to quantify factors contributing to individual diseases. For COPD, network approaches are being used to build disease networks, define molecular pathways, identify optimal disease phenotypes, develop new classifications, and integrate multi-omics data. Genome-wide association studies have identified risk loci for COPD, which are now being functionally validated in cellular and animal models. Network medicine aims to take a holistic rather than reductionist approach to complex diseases like COPD.

This article summarizes a study of 785 Tanzanian children living in an area with intense malaria transmission. The study found that iron deficiency (ID), as measured by ferritin levels in blood samples taken at routine visits, significantly decreased the odds of subsequent malaria parasitemia, severe malaria, and all-cause mortality in children. When samples from sick visits were also included, ID was associated with significantly lower prevalence of parasitemia, hyperparasitemia (very high parasite levels), and severe malaria at the time of sample collection. The results suggest that naturally occurring ID protects against severe malaria and death in young children, and that iron supplementation may increase malaria risk even in children with ID. Future studies are needed to determine
This document discusses vitamin D and its potential relationship to ovarian cancer risk. It notes that vitamin D receptor (VDR) expression is higher in ovarian cancer cells than normal ovarian cells. Studies have found that vitamin D administration can inhibit growth and induce apoptosis in ovarian cancer cell lines. The document reviews several studies that found associations between the VDR Fok1 polymorphism and increased ovarian cancer risk. In particular, there is evidence that women with the CT and TT genotypes may have higher risk. Based on these findings, the document calls for larger studies to further evaluate the relationship between the VDR Fok1 polymorphism and epithelial ovarian cancer risk, as well as measuring serum vitamin D levels in ovarian cancer patients.
Seroprevalence among blood donors is a major public health problem, both in

This document summarizes the results of a study comparing the expression of cell surface antigens in different cell lineages between patients with myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and patients with idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) as a control group. The study found significant differences in the mean percentages of various antigens expressed in the granulocytic, erythroid, monocytic, and myeloid precursor lineages between MDS and ITP patients. Providing reference values for antigen expression patterns in MDS enhances the utility of flow cytometric analysis for diagnosing these patients.
This study aims to investigate the functional relationship between the rs1111875 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) and type 2 diabetes susceptibility by determining the effect of the SNP on the expression of the HHEX and IDE genes. The study will generate isogenic beta cell lines that differ only in their rs1111875 genotype using CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing. Gene expression analysis will then be performed on the cell lines using TaqMan assays to measure relative expression of HHEX and IDE and determine if the risk allele of rs1111875 alters their expression levels, which could provide insight into how this SNP contributes to type 2 diabetes risk.
