Air pollution, particularly fine particulate matter and gaseous pollutants including NO and NO, presents significant public health challenges. While the harmful effects of these pollutants are well-documented, the molecular mechanisms underlying their impact on health remain incompletely understood. In this study, we utilized genome-wide association study (GWAS) data from the UK Biobank, expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) data from the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) project, and protein quantitative trait loci (pQTL) data from the Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities (ARIC) study to conduct comprehensive analyses using the Unified Test for Molecular Signatures (UTMOST), Transcriptome-wide Association Studies (TWAS), and Proteome-wide Association Studies (PWAS).

Background: Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by a range of motor symptoms as well as documented sensory dysfunction. This sensory dysfunction can present itself either as a "pure" sensory disturbance or as a consequence of sensory-motor integration within the central nervous system. This study aims to investigate changes in the functional connectivity of the primary somatosensory cortex (S1) and its clinical significance in Parkinson's disease (PD), an area that has received limited attention in previous neuroimaging studies.

Arabidopsis abscisic acid ABA-Insensitive RING Proteins (AtAIRP1-4) are RING E3s that play significant roles in ABA-signaling pathways. However, it is still unclear whether they have other functions. Here, AtAIRP4 was determined to play a role in response to gibberellin A3 (GA) in Arabidopsis thaliana.
