SCN10A gene polymorphism is associated with pain sensitivity and postoperative analgesic effects in patients undergoing gynecological laparoscopy.

Eur J Med Res

January 2025

Department of Anesthesiology, Chongqing Health Center for Women and Children, Women and Children's Hospital of Chongqing Medical University, No. 120, Longshan Road, Yubei District, Chongqing, 401147, China.

Background: Postoperative pain intensity is influenced by various factors, including genetic variations. The SCN10A gene encodes the Nav1.8 sodium channel protein, which is crucial for pain signal transmission in peripheral sensory neurons.

The genus Streptococcus is highly diverse and a core member of the primate oral microbiome. Streptococcus species are grouped into at least eight phylogenetically-supported clades, five of which are found almost exclusively in the oral cavity. We explored the dominant Streptococcus phylogenetic clades in samples from multiple oral sites and from ancient and modern-day humans and non-human primates and found that clade dominance is conserved across human oral sites, with most Streptococcus reads assigned to species falling in the Sanguinis or Mitis clades.

High-throughput method characterizes hundreds of previously unknown antibiotic resistance mutations.

Division of Evolution, Infection and Genomic Sciences, School of Biological Sciences, Faculty of Biology, Medicine and Health, University of Manchester, Manchester, M13 9PL, UK.

A fundamental obstacle to tackling the antimicrobial resistance crisis is identifying mutations that lead to resistance in a given genomic background and environment. We present a high-throughput technique - Quantitative Mutational Scan sequencing (QMS-seq) - that enables quantitative comparison of which genes are under antibiotic selection and captures how genetic background influences resistance evolution. We compare four E.

Recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) has emerged as one of the best gene delivery vectors for human gene therapy in vivo. However, the clinical efficacy of rAAV gene therapy is often hindered by the host immune response against its transgene products. Endoplasmic reticulum aminopeptidase 1 (ERAP1) is specialised to process peptides presented by class I molecules of major histocompatibility complex.

Cyto-Genotoxic Assessment of Sulfoxaflor in Allium cepa Root Cells and DNA Docking Studies.

Microsc Res Tech

January 2025

Molecular Biology and Genetics Department, Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences, Uşak University, Uşak, Turkey.

Sulfoxaflor (SFX) is an insecticide that is commonly used for the control of sap-feeding insects. Since SFX is extensively applied globally, it has been implicated in the substantial induction of environmental toxicity. Therefore, in this study, Allium cepa roots have been employed to elucidate the potential cytogenotoxic effects of SFX in non-target cells by examination of mitotic index (MI), chromosomal aberrations (CAs), and DNA damage.
