We performed the analysis of genotype frequency dynamics of CASP8, BCL2 and BAX genes polymorphic markers between 21 and 109 years in the group of Ethnic Tatars from Bashkortostan. Genotyping was carried out using PCR and PCR-RFLP. We found associations between age and -652(6N)I/D polymorphism of CASP8 gene (rs3834129), 140016C>T polymorphism of BCL2 gene (rs12454712) and 919A>G polymorphism of BAX gene (rs1805419). An increase of genotype frequency of BCL2*C/*C and decrease of genotype frequency of CASP8*I/*D was observed in male of senile age; and also decrease of genotype frequency of BAX*G/*G among long-livers. In female of longevity age, the number of CASP8*I/*D, BCL2*T/*T and BAX*A/*A genotype carriers was higher and number of CASP8*DI/*D, BCL2*C/*C, BAX*A/*G and BAX *G/*G genotype carriers was reduced.

Objectives: Platelet transfusion refractoriness (PTR) is a frustrating clinical problem, and primary and persistent (P/P) PTR who experienced persistent PTR since the first transfusion was failed to be well recognized. This study aims to investigate the incidence and risk factors for P/P PTR.
Methods: Patients with hematologic disorders who underwent HLA high-resolution genotyping and donor-specific HLA antibody or panel reactive antibody (PRA) testing between January 2019 and March 2023 were reviewed.

Background: Substance use disorders are multifaceted conditions influenced by both genetic and environmental factors. Serotonergic pathways are known to be involved in substance use disorder susceptibility, with genetic markers within serotonin receptor genes identified as potential risk factors.
Methods: To further explore this relationship, we conducted a study to investigate the association between several polymorphisms in five serotonin receptor genes (, , ) and substance use disorders (SUD) in Jordanian males by sequencing genotypes in 496 SUD patients and 496 healthy controls.

Background: The regulatory role of the apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε4 allele in the clinical manifestations of spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) remains unclear. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of the APOE ε4 allele on cognitive and motor functions in SCA3 patients.
Methods: This study included 281 unrelated SCA3 patients and 182 controls.

Objectives: Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a zoonotic pathogen that poses a serious threat to veterinary and public health worldwide. We investigated mastitis milk samples for contamination with MRSA and also characterized the MRSA isolates by investigating antimicrobial resistance and virulence factors.
Result: We confirmed MRSA in 69 of 201 (34.

Background: Lipid metabolism is influenced by mutations in the EH domain binding protein 1 gene (EHBP1). This study investigated the link between the EHBP1 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and dyslipidemia risks in maintenance dialysis patients with end-stage renal disease in Chinese Han population.
Methods: A total of 539 patients were divided into dyslipidemia (379) and control (160) groups.
