Background: Genetic variants in absorption, distribution, metabolism, and excretion (ADME) genes affect drug efficacy and side effects. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) effectively identifies these variants. Findings from Western populations may not apply to the Han Chinese population due to ethnic differences.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder with phenotypic and genetic heterogeneity. Recent studies have suggested an oligogenic basis of ALS, in which the co-occurrence of two or more genetic variants has additive or synergistic deleterious effects. To assess the contribution of possible oligogenic inheritance, we profiled a panel of 43 relevant genes in 57 sporadic ALS (sALS) patients and eight familial ALS (fALS) patients from five pedigrees in east China.

To explore the relationship between germline rare variants of bromodomain and extraterminal domain (BET) protein family-encoding genes and susceptibility to cancer in some regions of China. Capturing probes were designed for bromodomain-containing protein 2 (BRD2), BRD3 and BRD4 genes, and Illumina high-throughput sequencing platform was used to conduct targeted sequencing of genomic DNA of peripheral blood leukocytes from 1 673 patients with cancer and 1 661 individuals without cancer recruited between October 2015 and July 2018 from Chinese PLA General Hospital, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi Medical University, People's Hospital of Macheng City, Hubei Province and Geneplus-Beijing Co. Ltd.
