Article Abstract
The Caucasian Squirrel, , is the only representative of the Sciuridae family in the Eastern Mediterranean region. In this study, the mitochondrial genome of the species was generated, and we investigate its phylogenetic position within the Sciuridae family. The generated mitogenome sequence is 16,234 bp. It is composed of a control region and a conserved set of 37 genes containing 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes and 2 rRNA genes.

Background: Mitochondrial dysfunction has been demonstrated to be an important hallmark of sarcopenia, yet its specific mechanism remains obscure. In this study, mitochondrial-related genes were used as instrumental variables to proxy for mitochondrial dysfunction, and summary data for sarcopenia-related traits were used as outcomes to examine their genetic association.
Methods: A total of 1,136 mitochondrial-related genes from the human MitoCarta3.

Background: Lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) exhibits molecular heterogeneity, with mitochondrial damage affecting progression. The relationship between mitochondrial damage and immune infiltration, and Weighted Gene Co-expression Network Analysis (WGCNA)-derived biomarkers for LUAD classification and prognosis, remains unexplored.
Aims: The objective of our research is to identify gene modules closely related to the clinical stages of LUAD using the WGCNA method.

The number of human disease genes has dramatically increased over the past decade, largely fueled by ongoing advances in sequencing technologies. In parallel, the number of available clinical genetic tests has also increased, including the utilization of exome sequencing for undiagnosed diseases. Although most clinical sequencing tests have been centered on enrichment-based multigene panels and exome sequencing, the continued improvements in performance and throughput of genome sequencing suggest that this technology is emerging as a potential platform for routine clinical genetic testing.
