This study assessed associations between the CYP4F2 gene and myocardial infarction (MI), using a haplotype-based case-control study of 234 MI patients and 248 controls genotyped for 5 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (rs3093105, rs3093135, rs1558139, rs2108622, rs3093200). For men, G allele frequency of rs2108622 and frequency of the T-C-G haplotype were significantly higher, and frequency of the T-C-A haplotype was significantly lower for MI patients than for controls (P=0.006, P=0.001 and P=0.002, respectively).

Notable advances have recently been achieved in drug therapies for renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Several tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) and immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have been approved for metastatic RCC (mRCC). The current first-line treatment for mRCC involves combination therapies using TKIs and ICIs.

Warfarin is the most widely used oral anticoagulant in clinical practice. The cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9), vitamin K epoxide reductase complex 1 (VKORC1), and cytochrome P450 4F2 (CYP4F2) genotypes are associated with warfarin dose requirements in China. Accurate genotyping is vital for obtaining reliable genotype-guided warfarin dosing information.

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.

Article Synopsis
  • Circadian rhythm disruption is common in Parkinson's disease (PD) and can affect treatment outcomes; this study investigates the regulatory mechanisms of circadian-related genes (C-genes) in PD using bioinformatics.
  • The analysis identified 634 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and narrowed it down to four critical genes (AK3, RTN3, CYP4F2, and LEPR) which were further validated as potential biomarkers through various statistical methods.
  • The identified biomarkers are linked to PD and various pathways, indicating their relevance in understanding the disease and potential therapeutic targets.

Background/aims: Osteosarcoma is a prevalent and aggressive primary malignant bone tumor affecting children and adolescents. Despite advancements in sequencing technologies, there remains a lack of reliable prognostic biomarkers and effective targeted therapies for osteosarcoma. This study focuses on identifying key prognostic genes, particularly the role of GNAS, in osteosarcoma progression.
