unotherapy than the high-risk group. Combined with predictions from the Tumor Immune Dysfunction and Exclusion (TIDE) website, we found that LUAD patients in the low-risk group significantly benefited from programmed cell death 1 (PD-1) and cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 (CTLA4) immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) therapy compared with those in the high-risk group. Furthermore, drug susceptibility analysis identified potential sensitive chemotherapeutic drugs for each risk group. In this study, a novel three pyroptosis-related lncRNA signature was constructed, which could accurately predict the immunotherapy efficacy and prognosis in LUAD patients.Colorectal cancer incidence and mortality have increased in recent years, with more than half of patients who died of colorectal cancer developing liver metastases. Consequently, colorectal cancer liver metastasis is the focus of clinical treatment, as well as being the most difficult. The primary target genes related to colorectal cancer liver metastasis were via bioinformatics analysis. First, five prognosis-related genes, CTAG1A, CSTL1, FJX1, IER5L, and KLHL35, were identified through screening, and the prognosis of the CSTL1, FJX1, IER5L, and KLHL35 high expression group was considerably poorer than that of the low expression group. Furthermore, the clinical correlation analysis revealed that in distinct pathological stages T, N, and M, the mRNA expression levels of CSTL1, IER5L, and KLHL35 were higher than in normal tissues. Finally, a correlation study of the above genes and clinical manifestations revealed that FJX1 was strongly linked to colorectal cancer liver metastasis. FJX1 is thought to affect chromogenic modification enzymes, the Notch signaling system, cell senescence, and other signaling pathways, according to KEGG enrichment analysis. FJX1 may be a critical target in colorectal cancer metastasis, and thus has the potential as a new biomarker to predict and treat colorectal cancer liver metastases.Objective It is suggested that estrogen receptors (ERs) might be associated with the disproportionate vulnerability of women to depressive episodes. Several variants in ER-alpha (ERα) and ER-beta (ERβ) have been linked to depression, but the results were not consistent. Hence, we conducted a meta-analysis to evaluate the association between ERα/ERβ and depression in a cohort of women. Methods A comprehensive literature search was performed in public databases. The genetic association between polymorphisms in Erα/ERβ and depression risk in a cohort of women was evaluated by odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Cochran's Q test and the I2 index were used to evaluate heterogeneity. Results In total, 10 studies and 4 SNPs (rs2234693, rs9340799, rs4986938, rs1256049) were included in our meta-analysis. rs2234693 genotype was significantly associated with the risk of depression in women by dominant model (CC + CT vs TT, OR = 1.30, 95% CI 1.09-1.55, p = 0.0031), recessive model (CC vs CT + TT, OR = that ERs participate in the etiology of sex heterogeneity in depression.Novel genetic variations can be obtained by inducing mutations in the plant which help to achieve novel traits. The useful mutant can be obtained through radiation mutation in a short period which can be used as a new material to produce new varieties with high yield and good quality wheat. In this paper, the proteomic analysis of wheat treated with different doses of 12C and 7Li ion beam radiation at the seedling stage was carried out through a Tandem Mass Tag (TMT) tagging quantitative proteomic analysis platform based on high-resolution liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, and the traditional 60Co-γ-ray radiation treatment for reference. A total of 4,764 up-regulated and 5,542 down-regulated differentially expressed proteins were identified. These proteins were mainly enriched in the KEGG pathway associated with amino acid metabolism, fatty acid metabolism, carbon metabolism, photosynthesis, signal transduction, protein synthesis, and DNA replication. Functional analysis of the differentially expressedbeam radiation in the mutation breeding of wheat and other major crops and promote the development of heavy ion beam radiation mutation breeding technology.A dilated lateral ventricle is a relatively common finding on prenatal ultrasound, and the causes are complex. We aimed to explore the etiology of a fetus with a dilated lateral ventricle. Trio whole-exome sequencing was performed to detect causative variants. A de novo variant of TAOK1 (NM_020791.2 c.227A>G) was detected in the proband and evaluated for potential functional impacts using a variety of prediction tools. Droplet digital polymerase chain reaction was used to exclude the parental mosaicism and to verify the phasing of the de novo variant. Based on peripheral blood analysis, the parents did not exhibit mosaicism at this site, and the de novo variant was paternally derived. Here, we describe a fetus with a de novo likely pathogenic variant of TAOK1 who had a dilated lateral ventricle and a series of particular phenotypes. This case expands the clinical spectrum of TAOK1-associated disorders. We propose a method for solving genetic disorders in which the responsible genes have not yet gone through ClinGen curation, particularly for prenatal cases.Background Gastric cancer (GC) is one of the malignant tumors worldwide. Janus (JAK)-signal transduction and activator of transcription (STAT) signaling pathway is involved in cellular biological process and immune function. However, the association between them is still not systematically described. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to identify key genes involved in JAK-STAT signaling pathway and GC, as well as the potential mechanism. Methods The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database was the source of RNA-sequencing data of GC patients. Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database was used as the validation set. The predictive value of the JAK-STAT signaling pathway-related prognostic prediction model was examined using least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO); survival, univariate, and multivariate Cox regression analyses; and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analyses to examine the predictive value of the model. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) and chi-square655. The training test set verified these results. Further analyses unveiled an enrichment of cancer-related pathways, m6A modifications, and the direct interaction between m6A and the four genes. Conclusion This four-gene prognostic model could be applied to predict the prognosis of GC patients and might be a promising therapeutic target in GC.Objective This study aimed to identify the hub gene in gastric cancer (GC) tumorigenesis. A biomarker prediction model was constructed and analyzed, and protein expression in histopathological samples was verified in a validation cohort. Methods Differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified from GC projects in The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database. Functional enrichment analysis of DEGs was performed between the high- and low- Ribonuclease P protein subunit p30 (RPP30) expression groups. ROC analysis was performed to assess RPP30 expression to discriminate GC from normal tissues. Functional enrichment pathways and immune infiltration of DEGs were analyzed using GSEA and ssGSEA. Survival analysis and nomogram construction were performed to predict patient survival. Immunohistochemical staining of GC tissues was performed to validate RPP30 expression in GC and paracancerous samples. Results Gene expression data and clinical information of 380 cases (375 GC samples and 32 para-cancerous tissues) were c and promising insights into the molecular pathogenesis of tRNA in GC.Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP) is considered to be one of the common neurodegenerative diseases with marked genetic heterogeneity. Recently, the mutations in ubiquitin-associated protein 1 (UBAP1) have been described in patients with HSP, known as spastic paraplegias 80 (SPG80). Here, we reported a Chinese HSP family presenting a frameshift mutation in the UBAP1 gene leading to complex HSP. Their clinical features encompassed spastic paraparetic gait, exaggerated patellar tendon reflexes, bilateral Babinski signs, and hyperactive Achilles tendon reflex. The proband also had severe urinary incontinence and a dermoid cyst at the lumbar 4-5 spinal cord, which rarely occurs in HSP patients. Following whole-exome sequencing, a novel heterozygous mutation (c.437dupG, NM_016,525) was identified in the UBAP1 that segregated with the family's phenotype and resulted in truncating UBAP1 protein (p.Ser146ArgfsTer13). Moreover, we reviewed the genotypes of UBAP1 and the phenotypic variability in 90 HSP patients reported in the literature. We found that the age of onset in UBAP1-related patients was juvenile, and there were population differences in the age of onset. The main complications were lower extremity spasticity, hyperreflexia, and the Babinski sign. Exon 4 of UBAP1 was identified as a mutation hotspot region. Our study expands the knowledge of UBAP1 mutations, which will aid in HSP patient counseling. ND646 Further molecular biological research is needed to explore the genotype-phenotype correlations of UBAP1-related HSP.Recall-by-genotype (RbG) studies conducted with population-based biobank data remain urgently needed, and follow-up RbG studies, which add substance to this research approach, remain solitary. In such studies, potentially disease-related genotypes are identified and individuals with those genotypes are recalled for consultation to gather more detailed clinical phenotypic information and explain to them the meaning of their genetic findings. Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is among the most common autosomal-dominant single-gene disorders, with a global prevalence of 1 in 500 (Nordestgaard et al., Eur. Heart J., 2013, 34 (45), 3478-3490). Untreated FH leads to lifelong elevated LDL cholesterol levels, which can cause ischemic heart disease, with potentially fatal consequences at a relatively early age. In most cases, the pathogenesis of FH is based on a defect in one of three LDL receptor-related genes-APOB, LDLR, and PCSK9. We present our first long-term follow-up RbG study of FH, conducted within the Estonian Biobank (34 recalled participants from a pilot RbG study and 291 controls harboring the same APOB, LDLR, and PCSK9 variants that were included in the pilot study). The participants' electronic health record data (FH-related diagnoses, lipid-lowering treatment prescriptions) and pharmacogenomic risk of developing statin-induced myopathy were assessed. A survey was administered to recalled participants to discern the impact of the knowledge of their genetic findings on their lives 4-6 years later. Significant differences in FH diagnoses and lipid-lowering treatment prescriptions were found between the recalled participants and controls (34 and 291 participants respectively). Our study highlights the need for more consistent lipid-lowering treatment adherence checkups and encourage more follow-up RbG studies to be performed.Background Hepatocellular carcinoma is one kind of clinical common malignant tumor with a poor prognosis, and its pathogenesis remains to be clarified urgently. This study was performed to elucidate key genes involving HCC by bioinformatics analysis and experimental evaluation. Methods We identified common differentially expressed genes (DEGs) based on gene expression profile data of GSE60502 and GSE84402 from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database. Gene Ontology enrichment analysis (GO), Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway analysis, REACTOME pathway enrichment analysis, and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis (GSEA) were used to analyze functions of these genes. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was constructed using Cytoscape software based on the STRING database, and Molecular Complex Detection (MCODE) was used to pick out two significant modules. Hub genes, screened by the CytoHubba plug-in, were validated by Gene Expression Profiling Interactive Analysis (GEPIA) and the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) database.
