Microarrays of biomolecules are emerging as powerful tools for genomics, proteomics, and clinical assays, since they make it possible to screen biologically important binding events in a parallel and high throughput fashion. Because the microarrays are fabricated on a solid support, coating of the surface and immobilization strategy of the biomolecules are major issues for successful microarray fabrication. This review deals with both DNA microarrays and protein microarrays, and focuses on the various modification approaches for the two-dimensional surface materials and three-dimensional ones. In addition, the immobilization strategies including adsorption, covalent attachment, physical entrapment, and affinity attachment of the biomolecules are summarized, and advantage and limitation of representative efforts are discussed.

Bacterial proteome microarrays are high-throughput, adaptable tools that allow the simultaneous investigation of thousands of proteins from various bacterial species. These arrays are used to explore bacterial pathogenicity, pathogen-host interactions, and clinical diseases. Recent advancements have expanded their application to profiling human antibodies, identifying biomarkers for infectious and autoimmune diseases, and studying antimicrobial peptides (AMPs).

Swedish Warmblood horses (SWB) are bred for show jumping and/or dressage with young horse test scores as indicator traits. This study aimed to investigate possible candidate genes and regions of importance for evaluated and linearly scored young horse test traits. A single-step genome-wide association study (ssGWAS) was done using the BLUPF90 suite of programs for factors scores from factor analysis of traits assessed at young horse tests together with height at withers.

Purpose: Preimplantation aneuploidy in humans is one of the primary causes of implantation failure and embryo miscarriage. This study was conducted to gain insight into gene expression changes that may result from aneuploidy in blastocysts through RNA-Seq analysis.
Methods: The surplus embryos of preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A) candidate couples with normal karyotype and maternal age < 38 were collected following identical ovarian stimulation protocol.
PD-L1 expression in high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer is not a biomarker of response to BCG.

Purpose: Up to 50% of high-risk non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (HR-NMIBC) patients fail Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) treatment, resulting in a high risk of progression and poor clinical outcomes. Biomarkers that predict outcomes after BCG are lacking. The antitumor effects of BCG are driven by a cytotoxic T cell response, which may be controlled by immune checkpoint proteins like Programmed Death Ligand 1 (PD-L1).

Background: Several studies have indicated sex-specific genetic risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD), but these were centered on non-Hispanic White individuals of European ancestry. We sought to identify sex-specific genetic variants for AD in non-Hispanic and Hispanic subjects of admixed African ancestry.
Method: Participants were ages 60+, of African ancestry (≥25%), and diagnosed as cases or controls.
