Mesothelioma is a lethal cancer of the serosal lining of the body cavities. Risk factors include environmental and genetic factors. Asbestos exposure is considered the principal environmental risk factor, but other carcinogenic mineral fibers, such as erionite, also have a causal role.

Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the (). While gene therapy holds promise as a cure, the cell-type-specific heterogeneity of expression in the lung presents significant challenges. Current CF ferret models closely replicate the human disease phenotype but have limitations in studying functional complementation through cell-type-specific CFTR restoration.

Invading species along with increased anthropogenization may lead to hybridization events between wild species and closely related domesticates. As a consequence, wild species may carry introgressed alleles from domestic species, which is generally assumed to yield adverse effects in wild populations. The opposite evolutionary consequence, adaptive introgression, where introgressed genes are positively selected in the wild species, is possible but has rarely been documented.

Introduction/objectives: Genetic variations could explain individual responses to drugs. This case-control study aimed to investigate the association between the multidrug resistance 1 (MDR1) gene exonic single nucleotide variants (SNVs), rs1128503/C1236T and rs1045642/C3435T, and the response to intravenous methylprednisolone in Egyptian patients with active systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE).
Method: Real-time polymerase chain reaction was used.

Unlabelled: Pre-harvest sprouting (PHS) of wheat ( L.) is one of the complex traits that result in rainfall-dependent reductions in grain production and quality worldwide. Breeding new varieties and germplasm with PHS resistance is of great importance to reduce this problem.
