A GWAS identified loci and candidate genes associated with fiber quality traits in a new cotton MAGIC population.

Theor Appl Genet

December 2024

Cotton Fiber Bioscience and Utilization Research Unit, USDA-ARS-SRRC, New Orleans, 70124, LA, USA.

GWAS of a new MAGIC population containing alleles from five tetraploid Gossypium species identified novel fiber QTL and confirmed previously identified stable QTL. Identification of loci and underlying genes for fiber quality traits will facilitate genetic improvement in cotton fiber quality. In this research, a genome-wide association study (GWAS) was carried out for fiber quality attributes using a new multi-parent advanced generation inter-cross (MAGIC) population consisting of 372 recombinant inbred lines (RILs).

Background: Microbiota-derived toxins indoxyl sulfate and hippuric acid were previously reported to be associated with altered pharmacokinetics of the immunosuppressant tacrolimus in liver transplant recipients, and ABC transporter proteins are likely to be involved in the transport of such substances, but the role has not been elucidated. The aim of this study was to assess the retention of indoxyl sulfate and hippuric acid in the plasma of liver transplantation subjects carrying different genotypes of and (changes in transporter activity due to genetic variation), and to explore whether genetic variation is involved in altering the relationship between microbe-derived toxins and tacrolimus pharmacokinetics.

Methods: Liver transplantation subjects treated with the immunosuppressive regimen tacrolimus, corticosteroids, and mycophyolate mofetil were included and divided into normal renal function group and chronic kidney disease group.

Associations between circulating interleukin-18 levels and adult-onset Still's disease: a meta-analysis.

J Rheum Dis

January 2025

Division of Rheumatology, Department of Internal Medicine, Korea University Medical Center, Korea University College of Medicine, Seoul, Korea.

Objective: This study aimed to investigate the link between circulating interleukin-18 (IL-18) levels and adult-onset Still's disease (AOSD).

Methods: A thorough search was performed on MEDLINE, Embase, and Web of Science to find relevant articles. A meta-analysis was conducted to compare serum/plasma IL-18 levels in AOSD patients to those in control subjects.

Introduction: Atrial fibrillation (AFib) is a common disorder featured by an irregular and fast heartbeat. The etiology of AFib is complex and involves genetic and environmental factors. The rs2200733 single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) is located in close proximity to the promoter of paired-like homeodomain transcription factor 2 (PITX2) which plays a role in heart development.

Background: Previous studies on the impact of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) copy number on female infertility were limited and inconsistent.

Methods: The causal relationship between mtDNA copy number and female infertility was evaluated using a bidirectional 2-sample Mendelian randomization (MR) method. Inverse variance weighted (IVW) method was applied for principal analysis, and MR-Egger, weighted median, simple mode, weighted mode method for secondary analyses.
