Increased expression of ORMDL3 in allergic asthma: a case control and in vitro study.

Background: Asthma is the most frequent chronic disease in children. One of the most replicated genetic findings in childhood asthma is the gene confirmed in several GWA studies in several pediatric populations.

Objectives: The purpose of this study was to analyze variants and expression in childhood asthma in the Polish population.

The Landscape of Transmembrane Protein Family Members in Head and Neck Cancers: Their Biological Role and Diagnostic Utility.

Transmembrane proteins (TMEM) constitute a large family of proteins spanning the entirety of the lipid bilayer. However, there is still a lack of knowledge about their function or mechanism of action. In this study, we analyzed the expression of selected genes in patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) to learn their role in tumor formation and metastasis.

When science goes viral: The research response during three months of the COVID-19 outbreak.

Here we present the results of a bibliometric survey of peer-reviewed and pre-print papers published in the English language on issues related to COVID-19 within the first three months since a cluster of a severe acute respiratory disease of unknown etiology was officially confirmed by the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention on 31 December 2019. A systematic search using PubMed/Medline and Scopus databases and preprint servers was performed. The articles were classified according to their type, subject and country of origin.
