Molecular Determination of Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha, Interleukin-8, Interleukin-10, and C-X-C Chemokine Receptor-2 Genetic Variations and their Association with Disease Susceptibility and Mortality in COVID-19 Patients
CONCLUSION: The findings of this study provide important insights into the COVID-19 disease and susceptibility risk. The polymorphisms in TNFα -308 G>A (rs1800629), IL-8 -251T>A (rs4073), IL-10 (-1082 G>A), rs1800896 and CXCR2 +785 C>T (rs2230054) are associated with the risk of susceptibility to COVID-19 and with mortality in COVID-19 patients. Further studies with larger sample sizes are necessary to confirm our findings.PMID:38544825 | PMC:PMC10964085 | DOI:10.2174/0113892029272497240103052359 (Source: Current Genomics)

Analysis of the Expression of < em > PRDX6 < /em > in Patients with Hepatocellular Carcinoma and its Effect on the Phenotype of Hepatocellular Carcinoma Cells
CONCLUSION: The expression of PRDX6 may be closely related to the prognosis of HCC. Lentivirus-mediated PRDX6 knockdown can inhibit the proliferation, migration and invasion of HCC cells, which may be related to its regulating the PI3K/Akt/mTOR and Notch1 signaling pathways. PRDX6 is expected to be a new target for the diagnosis and treatment of liver cancer.PMID:38544826 | PMC:PMC10964084 | DOI:10.2174/0113892029273682240111052317 (Source: Current Genomics)

Epigenetic Diversity Underlying Seasonal and Annual Variations in Brown Planthopper (BPH) Populations as Revealed by Methylation- sensitive Restriction Assay
CONCLUSION: Screening field-collected BPH populations revealed the presence of previously unreported epigenetic polymorphisms and provided a platform for future studies aimed at investigating their significance for BPH. Furthermore, these findings can form the basis for understanding the contribution(s) of DNA methylation in providing phenotypic plasticity to BPH.PMID:38327650 | PMC:PMC10845068 | DOI:10.2174/0113892029276542231205065843 (Source: Current Genomics)

Identification of Two Novel Pathogenic Variants of the < em > ATM < /em > Gene in the Iranian-Azeri Turkish Ethnic Group by Applying Whole Exome Sequencing
CONCLUSION: Genetic analysis of three unrelated families with ATM-related disorders discovered two novel pathogenic variants. A homozygous missense pathogenic variant was identified in a woman with bi-lateral breast cancer, and a synonymous but pathogenic variant was found in a family with a history of different cancers.PMID:38327652 | PMC:PMC10845066 | DOI:10.2174/0113892029268949231104165301 (Source: Current Genomics)
