Genomics in Egypt: Current Status and Future Aspects.

Egypt is the third most densely inhabited African country. Due to the economic burden and healthcare costs of overpopulation, genomic and genetic testing is a huge challenge. However, in the era of precision medicine, Egypt is taking a shift in approach from "one-size-fits all" to more personalized healthcare via advancing the practice of medical genetics and genomics across the country.

Nomogram of age-specific anti-Müllerian hormone levels in healthy Egyptian females.

Background: Anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) is an important determinant of ovarian reserve in fertility workups in many clinical settings. Thus, we investigated the age dependent decline in AMH specific to the Egyptian population and sought to establish an age dependent reference interval parametrically.

Methods: Serum samples were collected from 841 apparently healthy women.

Circulating miRNA 27a and miRNA150-5p; a noninvasive approach to endometrial carcinoma.

The search for novel non-invasive biomarkers such as epigenetic molecular markers is new hope for common and burdensome cancers. We aim to assess serum expression of miRNA 27a and miRNA150-5p in endometrial cancer patients. Serum was drawn for 36 un-intervened endometrial cancer patients scheduled for hysterectomy and 35 controls.
