Guidelines for Evaluating the Comparability of Down-Sampled GWAS Summary Statistics
Behav Genet. 2023 Sep 15. doi: 10.1007/s10519-023-10152-z. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTProprietary genetic datasets are valuable for boosting the statistical power of genome-wide association studies (GWASs), but their use can restrict investigators from publicly sharing the resulting summary statistics. Although researchers can resort to sharing down-sampled versions that exclude restricted data, down-sampling reduces power and might change the genetic etiology of the phenotype being studied. These problems are further complicated when using multivariate GWAS methods, such as genomic structural equation modeling (Genomic...

RNA Interference and Neuromuscular Diseases: A Focus on Hereditary Transthyretin Amyloidosis
Curr Gene Ther. 2023 Sep 13. doi: 10.2174/1566523223666230913110011. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTNeuromuscular diseases are severe disorders affecting the peripheral nervous system, usually driving to death in a limited time. Many new drugs, through RNA-interference technology, are revolutionizing the prognosis and quality of life for these patients. Nevertheless, given the increased life expectancy, some new issues and phenotypes are expected to be revealed. In the transthyretin-mediated hereditary amyloidosis (ATTR-v, "v" for "variant"), the RNA interference was demonstrated to effectively reduce the hepatic synthesis ...

The conceivable role of prolactin hormone in Parkinson disease: The same goal but with different ways
Ageing Res Rev. 2023 Sep 13:102075. doi: 10.1016/j.arr.2023.102075. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTParkinson disease (PD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disease (NDD) of the brain. It has been reported that prolactin (PRL) hormone plays a differential effect in PD, may be increasing, reduced or unaffected. PRL level is dysregulated in different neurodegenerative disorders including PD. Preclinical and clinical studies pointed out that PRL may has a neuroprotective against PD neuropathology . Though, the mechanistic role of PRL in PD is not fully elucidated. Therefore, the objective of the present review was to clarify t...

The C-terminal tail of Rad17, iVERGE, binds the 9 ‒1‒1 complex independently of AAA+ ATPase domains to provide another clamploader interface
DNA Repair (Amst). 2023 Sep 6;130:103567. doi: 10.1016/j.dnarep.2023.103567. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe ATR pathway plays a crucial role in maintaining genome integrity as the major DNA damage checkpoint. It also attracts attention as a therapeutic target in cancer treatment. The Rad17-RFC2-5 complex loads the Rad9-Hus1-Rad1 (9-1-1) DNA clamp complex onto damaged chromatin to activate the ATR pathway. We previously reported that phosphorylation of a polyanionic C-terminal tail of human Rad17, iVERGE, is essential for the interaction between Rad17 and the 9-1-1 complex. However, the molecular mechanism has remained u...

Landmarks in the history of selective sweeps
Anim Genet. 2023 Sep 14. doi: 10.1111/age.13355. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHalf a century ago, a seminal article on the hitchhiking effect by Smith and Haigh inaugurated the concept of the selection signature. Selective sweeps are characterised by the rapid spread of an advantageous genetic variant through a population and hence play an important role in shaping evolution and research on genetic diversity. The process by which a beneficial allele arises and becomes fixed in a population, leading to a increase in the frequency of other linked alleles, is known as genetic hitchhiking or genetic draft. Kimura's neutral th...

Unravelling of the genetic diversity, population structure, and phylogenetic relationships of the indigenous horse breeds of Pakistan
Gene. 2023 Sep 13:147736. doi: 10.1016/j.gene.2023.147736. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe current study aimed to evaluate the genetic diversity, level of admixture, and phylogenetic relationship, of the Pakistani horse breeds, along with their morphological characterization. Data for the body measurements showed that Morna horses had the highest values of body height, body length, chest girth, leg length, and head length, whereas the Baluchi horses had the lowest values for these traits. For the genetic diversity 64 animals, 15/breed except for Baluchi(14) and Topras(05), were genotyped by using the 17-plex equine genot...

Tyrosine glucosylation of collagen films exploiting Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP)
Carbohydr Res. 2023 Sep 9;533:108938. doi: 10.1016/j.carres.2023.108938. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe development of human tissue models for regenerative medicine and animal-free drug screening requires glycosylated biomaterials such as collagen. An easy and fast biomaterial glycosylation method exploiting Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) phenol coupling reaction is proposed. The protocol is adaptable to any polymer functionalized with phenol residues or tyrosine containing proteins. As a model the tyrosine residues on collagen films were functionalized with salidroside, a natural β-glucoside with a phenol in the aglycon...

Whole-genome doubling in tissues and tumors
Trends Genet. 2023 Sep 13:S0168-9525(23)00187-7. doi: 10.1016/j.tig.2023.08.004. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe overwhelming majority of proliferating somatic human cells are diploid, and this genomic state is typically maintained across successive cell divisions. However, failures in cell division can induce a whole-genome doubling (WGD) event, in which diploid cells transition to a tetraploid state. While some WGDs are developmentally programmed to produce nonproliferative tetraploid cells with specific cellular functions, unscheduled WGDs can be catastrophic: erroneously arising tetraploid cells are ill-equipped to c...

The evolution of aging and lifespan
Trends Genet. 2023 Sep 14:S0168-9525(23)00186-5. doi: 10.1016/j.tig.2023.08.005. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAging is a nearly inescapable trait among organisms yet lifespan varies tremendously across different species and spans several orders of magnitude in vertebrates alone. This vast phenotypic diversity is driven by distinct evolutionary trajectories and tradeoffs that are reflected in patterns of diversification and constraint in organismal genomes. Age-specific impacts of selection also shape allele frequencies in populations, thus impacting disease susceptibility and environment-specific mortality risk. Further, ...

Transcriptome analysis revealed the existence of family-specific regulation of growth traits in grass carp
Genomics. 2023 Sep 13:110706. doi: 10.1016/j.ygeno.2023.110706. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella) is the world's most prolific freshwater fish. Little is known, however, about the functional genes and genetic regulatory networks that govern its growth traits. We created three grass carp families in this study by using two grass carp parents with fast-growing offspring and two grass carp parents with slow-growing offspring, namely the fast-growing × fast-growing family (FF), the slow-growing × slow-growing family (SS), and the fast-growing × slow-growing family (FS). Under the satiati...
