Pecularities of distribution of 40 HLA antigens within the Uzbek population of the Ferghana Valley have been studied. The frequencies of these antigens are subdivided into three main groups having frequencies characteristic of the following populations: Caucasoid population (A9, B40, Bw22 etc.); Mongoloid population (B8, B7, B12); Middle Asian population (Aw31, B13, B16, Bw35), probably. The Uzbek population contains haplotypes both of Europeoid (Aw30, B13; A3, Bw35) and Mongoloid origin (A9, B40) and, probably, of the local origin (A1, B14; A1, Bw53; Aw32, B40). The data on the HLA genetics of the Uzbeks confirm the historical, linguistic and anthropological information concerning the role of inhabitants of the Central Asia in ethnogenesis and formation of the modern Uzbek population.

Bud dormancy is a critical adaptive trait in woody plants, essential for enduring harsh winter conditions. The relationship between bud break timing and cold resistance is complex and has been a subject of debate. This study utilizes a Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) on 201 natural mulberry populations to identify the gene, which shows the strongest association with bud break timing.

Objective: This research aims to identify the association between the nine polymorphic variants (rs4961, rs699, rs4762, rs5186, rs1403543, rs1799998, rs5443, rs2070744, rs1799983) and the occurrence of hypertension and its clinical manifestations in the Uzbek population.
Methods: The study included 227 individuals, comprising 179 patients with hypertension and 48 controls. Clinical parameters such as age, weight, blood glucose, triglycerides, total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein and high-density lipoprotein, blood urea nitrogen, creatinine, pulse wave velocity, left ventricular mass, and microalbuminuria levels were identified.

Despite its millennial existence and empirical documentation, the ethnological knowledge of herbs is a more recent phenomenon. The knowledge of their historical uses as food, medicine, source of income and small-scale businesses, and the sociological impacts are threatened due to the slow ethnobotanical research drive. Species of the genus have long been extensively used in folk medicine to treat various illnesses of humans since the dawn of civilization.

Gastroenterology Department, Pediatric Republican Specialized Scientific-Practical Medical Center of the Ministry of Health of Republic of Uzbekistan, Tashkent 100179, Uzbekistan.
Background: A few studies on pediatric Celiac Disease (CD) are available from Central Asia. Recent immunogenetic research has highlighted that the HLA-DQ2/8 genetic predisposition to CD as well as the dietary intake of gluten in this geographical area, are comparable to other regions of the world where CD prevalence is known to be 1% or higher.
Methods: This is a prospective and cross-sectional study investigating the prevalence and clinical characteristics of CD in symptomatic children referred to the pediatric gastroenterology department of a tertiary hospital in Uzbekistan from 1 September 2021, until 31 July 2022.
