BACKGROUND: Tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α variant is closely linked to sepsis syndrome and mortality after severe trauma. We aimed to identify feature genes associated with the TNF rs1800629 A allele in trauma patients and help to direct them toward ...
Biobanks linking genetic data with clinical health records provide exciting opportunities for pharmacogenomic (PGx) research on genetic variation and drug response. Designed as central and multiuse resources, biobanks can facilitate diverse PGx resea...

Challenging samples in capillary electrophoresis (CE)-based short tandem repeat (STR) analysis often produce artefactual signals that cannot be completely filtered out by expert electropherogram (EPG) reading systems, complicating allele interpretati...
The recognition of endogenous peptides by HLA class I plays a crucial role in CD8+ T cell immune responses and human adaptive cell immune. Thus, the prediction of HLA class I-peptide binding affinities is always the core issue for the research of imm...
Rh phenotype matching reduces but does not eliminate alloimmunization in patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) due to RH genetic diversity that is not distinguishable by serological typing. RH genotype matching can potentially mitigate Rh alloimmun...

Human leukocyte antigen (HLA) imputation is an essential step following genome-wide association study, particularly when putative associations in HLA genes are identified, to fully understand the genetic basis of human traits. Different HLA imputatio...

The APOE-ε4 allele is a known genetic risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD). Thus, it can be reasoned that the APOE-ε4 allele would also impact neurodegeneration-associated structural brain changes. Here we probe if the APOE-ε4 genotype directly modulate...
Haploinsufficiency, wherein a single allele is not enough to maintain normal functions, can lead to many diseases including cancers and neurodevelopmental disorders. Recently, computational methods for identifying haploinsufficiency have been develop...
BACKGROUND: Amyloid-β positivity (Aβ+) based on PET imaging is part of the enrollment criteria for many of the clinical trials of Alzheimer's disease (AD), particularly in trials for amyloid-targeted therapy. Predicting Aβ positivity prior to PET ima...
The association of genes polymorphism of angiotensin-converting enzyme ACE (I/D) and endothelial nitric oxide synthase eNOS (894 G > T) with acute myocardial infarction (MI) among residents of North Bukovina region was evaluated. II/GG and ID/GG hapl...
