Association between the gene polymorphism-determined earwax properties and external auditory canal microbiota in healthy adults.
Microbiol Spectr
January 2025
Department of Pharmacology, Showa University Graduate School of Medicine, Shinagawa, Tokyo, Japan.
Unlabelled: The concept of genome-microbiome interactions, in which the microenvironment determined by host genetic polymorphisms regulates the local microbiota, is important in the pathogenesis of human disease. In otolaryngology, the resident bacterial microbiota is reportedly altered in non-infectious ear diseases, such as otitis media pearls and exudative otitis media. We hypothesized that a single-nucleotide polymorphism in the ATP-binding cassette sub-family C member 11 () gene, which determines earwax properties, regulates the ear canal microbiota.

Cancer Med
January 2025
Cancer Center, Beijing Tongren Hospital, Capital Medical University, Beijing, China.
Background: This study aims to elucidate the expression pattern of SERPINE1, assess its prognostic significance, and explore potential therapeutic drugs targeting this molecule.
Methods And Results: In this study, we delved into the variations in gene mutation, methylation patterns, and expression levels of SERPINE1 in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) and normal tissues, leveraging comprehensive analyses of The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) datasets. The connection between the biological function of the gene and prognosis was scrutinized through immune infiltration and enrichment analyses.
Genetic variation of the circumsporozoite protein in parasite isolates from Homabay County in Kenya.
Front Parasitol
April 2024
Centre for Malaria Elimination, Institute of Tropical Medicine, Mount Kenya University, Thika, Kenya.
The Circumsporozoite Protein (PfCSP) has been used in developing the RTS,S, and R21 malaria vaccines. However, genetic polymorphisms within compromise the effectiveness of the vaccine. Thus, it is essential to continuously assess the genetic diversity of , especially when deploying it across different geographical regions.

World J Gastrointest Oncol
January 2025
Department of Thoracic Surgery, Zhongshan Hospital Affiliated to Fudan University, Shanghai 200032, China.
Background: Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) superfamily plays an important role in tumor progression and metastasis. Activin A receptor type 1C (ACVR1C) is a TGF-β type I receptor that is involved in tumorigenesis through binding to different ligands.
Aim: To evaluate the correlation between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of ACVR1C and susceptibility to esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) in Chinese Han population.
Dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase polymorphisms in patients with gastrointestinal malignancies and their impact on fluoropyrimidine tolerability: Experience from a single Italian institution.
World J Gastrointest Oncol
January 2025
Department of Clinical Medicine and Surgery, University of Naples Federico II, Naples 80131, Campania, Italy.
Background: Fluoropyrimidines are metabolized in the liver by the enzyme dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD), encoded by the gene. About 7% of the European population is a carrier of gene polymorphisms associated with reduced DPD enzyme activity.
Aim: To assess the prevalence of polymorphisms and their impact on fluoropyrimidine tolerability in Italian patients with gastrointestinal malignancies.
