Differential display was applied in order to clone cDNAs expressed exclusively or predominantly in nodules, compared to uninoculated root tissue of Galega orientalis. Forty-five fragments were unique for nodule RNA. These fragments were reamplified and cloned. Six of them produced a nodule-specific signal on Northern hybridization. These six fragments were sequenced. Five of the sequenced fragments showed homology to nodulin-gene sequences in databases, among them Vicia faba mRNA for protein showing partial homology with Medicago sativa nodulin-25 (Nms25), Pisum sativum PsN466, V. faba CCP2 and CCP4, P. sativum ENOD3, and Maackia amurensis ENOD2. The remaining sequence had no significant homology with sequences in the databanks. Full-size cDNA for the homologue to V. faba mRNA for the protein showing partial homology with M. sativa nodulin-25 (Nms25) and P. sativum PsN466 were cloned and sequenced.

The frequency of mitochondrial DNA haplogroups (mtDNA-HG) in humans is known to be shaped by migration and repopulation. Mounting evidence indicates that mtDNA-HG are not phenotypically neutral, and selection may contribute to its distribution. Haplogroup H, the most abundant in Europe, improved survival in sepsis.

Aripiprazole (ARI) is an atypical antipsychotic which is a substrate of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), a transmembrane glycoprotein that plays a crucial role in eliminating potentially harmful compounds from the organism. ARI once-monthly (AOM) is a long-acting injectable form which improves treatment compliance. Genetic polymorphisms in ABCB1 may lead to changes in P-gp function, leading to individual differences in drug disposition.

Metabolic alterations are commonly associated with various cancers and are recognized as contributing factors to cancer progression, invasion, and metastasis. Drug repurposing, a strategy in drug discovery, utilizes existing knowledge to recommend established drugs for new indications based on clinical data or biological evidence. This approach is considered a less risky alternative to traditional drug development.

The use of artificial intelligence (AI) and, in particular, machine learning (ML) techniques is growing rapidly in the healthcare field. Their application in pharmacokinetics is of potential interest due to the need to relate enormous amounts of data and to the more efficient development of new predictive dose models. The development of pharmacokinetic models based on these techniques simplifies the process, reduces time, and allows more factors to be considered than with classical methods, and is therefore of special interest in the pharmacokinetic monitoring of antibiotics.

Purpose: Overlapping genes are involved with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and DNA repair pathways. Therefore, we hypothesised that patients with a high polygenic risk score (PRS) for RA will have an increased risk of radiotherapy (RT) toxicity given the involvement of DNA repair.
Methods: Primary analysis was performed on 1494 prostate cancer, 483 lung cancer and 1820 breast cancer patients assessed for development of RT toxicity in the REQUITE study.
