Pharmacogenomic landscape of the Thai population from genome sequencing of 949 individuals.

Inter-individual variability in drug responses is significantly influenced by genetic factors, underscoring the importance of population-specific pharmacogenomic studies to optimize clinical outcomes. In this study, we analyzed whole genome sequencing data from 949 unrelated Thai individuals and conducted an in-depth analysis of 3239 genes involved in drug pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, or immune-mediated adverse drug reactions. We identified 43 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), 134 diplotypes, and 15 human leukocyte antigen (HLA) alleles, all with moderate to high clinical significance.

Genetic Variants in the Gene Are Associated with Ramon Syndrome and Hereditary Gingival Fibromatosis.

Ramon syndrome (MIM 266270) is an extremely rare genetic syndrome, characterized by gingival fibromatosis, cherubism-like lesions, epilepsy, intellectual disability, hypertrichosis, short stature, juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, and ocular abnormalities. Hereditary or non-syndromic gingival fibromatosis (HGF) is also rare and considered to represent a heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by benign, slowly progressive, non-inflammatory gingival overgrowth. To date, two genes, and , have been linked to Ramon syndrome.

Rare Filaggrin Variants Are Associated with Pustular Skin Diseases in Asians.

Reactive pustular eruptions (RPEs) can manifest in a variety of conditions, including pustular psoriasis (PP) and adult-onset immunodeficiency syndrome due to anti-interferon-γ autoantibody (AOID). These RPEs can be attributed to different causes, one of which is genetic factors. However, the genetic basis for pustular skin diseases remains poorly understood.

Homozygosity for a Rare Variant Suggests a Contributory Role in Congenital Insensitivity to Pain.

Congenital insensitivity to pain is a rare human condition in which affected individuals do not experience pain throughout their lives. This study aimed to identify the molecular etiology of congenital insensitivity to pain in two Thai patients. Clinical, radiographic, histopathologic, immunohistochemical, and molecular studies were performed.

Genetic Variants in Are Associated with Isolated Dental Anomalies.

KCTD1 plays crucial roles in regulating both the SHH and WNT/β-catenin signaling pathways, which are essential for tooth development. The objective of this study was to investigate if genetic variants in might also be associated with isolated dental anomalies. We clinically and radiographically investigated 362 patients affected with isolated dental anomalies.
