Non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (nsSNPs) in hOCT1 (encoded by SLC22A1 gene) are expected to affect Imatinib uptake in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). In this study, sequence homology-based genetic analysis of a set of 270 coding SNPs identified 18 nsSNPs to be putatively damaging/deleterious using eight different algorithms. Subsequently, based on conservation of amino acid residues, stability analysis, posttranscriptional modifications, and solvent accessibility analysis, the possible structural-functional relationship was established for high-confidence nsSNPs. Furthermore, based on the modeling results, some dissimilarities of mutant type amino acids from wild-type amino acids such as size, charge, interaction and hydrophobicity were revealed. Three highly deleterious mutations consisting of P283L, G401S and R402G in SLC22A1 gene that may alter the protein structure, function and stability were identified. These results provide a filtered data to explore the effect of uncharacterized nsSNP and find their association with Imatinib resistance in CML.

An adolescent girl with acute myeloid leukaemia underwent chemotherapy followed by haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Post-HSCT, she developed oral chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGvHD), which was successfully treated. Twenty months later, she was referred to the gynaecology department for evaluation of secondary amenorrhoea.

Background And Aims: Alcohol-related liver disease (ALD) is one of the leading causes of severe liver disease with limited pharmacological treatments for alcohol-related steatohepatitis (ASH). CD44, a glycoprotein mainly expressed in immune cells, has been implicated in multiple inflammatory diseases but has never been studied in the ALD context. We therefore studied its contribution to ASH development in mice and its expression in ALD patients.

Methods: Platelet count (PLT), mean platelet volume (MPV), plateletcrit (PCT), and platelet distribution width (PDW) data were obtained from the GWAS catalog database as exposure factors. Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) data were obtained from the FinnGen database as outcome indicators.

Atherosclerosis (AS) is a chronic vascular disease characterized by inflammation of the arterial wall and the formation of cholesterol plaques. Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) is an autoimmune disorder marked by chronic inflammation and destruction of thyroid tissue. Although previous studies have identified common risk factors between AS and HT, the specific etiology and pathogenic mechanisms underlying these associations remain unclear.
