A novel fluorescent single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) assay was developed by using Graphene Oxide (GO), which provides a fast, sensitive and simple method for SNP detection. The strategy was based on the single base extension reaction and different absorption capacity of fluorescein labeled dGTP (dGTP-Fl) and double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) to GO. dGTP-Fl is incorporated into the probe by extension reaction for the mutant target but not for the wild target, which leads to recovered fluorescence for the mutant target because of weak interaction between dsDNA and GO and weak fluorescence for the wild target because of the quenched fluorescence of dGTP-Fl by GO. The method shows a linear range for the mutant-type target from 3 nM to 50 nM and 3 nM is the detection limit. It was noted that as low as 10% mutant-type target could be detected in the presence of the wild-type target, in which the concentration is 9 times higher than that of the mutant-type target.

Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a malignant tumor with highly heterogeneous and complex molecular mechanisms. Through systematic analysis of TCGA, COSMIC and other databases, 24 mutated genes closely related to RCC were screened, including VHL, PBRM1, BAP1 and SETD2, which play key roles in signaling pathway transduction, chromatin remodeling and DNA repair. The PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathway is particularly important in the pathogenesis of RCC.

The issue of () resistance to clarithromycin (CLR) has consistently posed challenges for clinical treatment. Hence, a rapid susceptibility testing (AST) method urgently needs to be developed. In the present study, 35 isolates of were isolated from 203 gastritis patients of the Guangzhou cohort, and the antimicrobial resistance phenotypes were associated with their genomes to analyze the relevant mutations.

Article Synopsis
- Atorvastatin is a cholesterol-lowering medication, and this study focused on creating a pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic model for its use in Chinese lung transplant recipients who are also on voriconazole (VOR) and have different genetic backgrounds.
- The research employed a nonlinear mixed-effects model to analyze how atorvastatin's effectiveness and clearance vary among these patients, considering factors like specific genotypes.
- The study found that tailored dosing regimens (10, 20, and 40 mg) could help optimize atorvastatin's effectiveness while minimizing the risk of overexposure, especially for patients on VOR or with genetic mutations.

Objective: Gastric cancer (GC) is the fifth most common malignancy, the molecular targets of which have been increasingly explored in recent years. As a serine/threonine protein kinase, the role of WNK lysine deficient protein kinase 4 (WNK4) in GC was clarified in this study.
Methods: Human GC lines AGS and MKN45 were stably transfected with a WNK4 mutant constructed by the CRISPR/Cas9 method and treated with cis-dichlorodiammine platinum (CDDP, 2 μg/mL) and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU, 5 μg/mL) for 48h.
