Mendelian inheritance of trimodal CpG methylation sites suggests distal cis-acting genetic effects.
( BioMed Central , 2016 , Article)Environmentally influenced phenotypes, such as obesity and insulin resistance, can be transmitted over multiple generations. Epigenetic modifications, such as methylation of DNA cytosine-guanine (CpG) pairs, may be carriers ... -
PopPAnTe: population and pedigree association testing for quantitative data.
( BioMed Central , 2017 , Article)Family-based designs, from twin studies to isolated populations with their complex genealogical data, are a valuable resource for genetic studies of heritable molecular biomarkers. Existing software for family-based studies ... -
Prevalence of anelloviruses (TTV, TTMDV, and TTMV) in healthy blood donors and in patients infected with HBV or HCV in Qatar
( BioMed Central , 2016 , Article)Background Anelloviruses (TTV, TTMV, and TTMDV) have been associated with non A-G hepatitis. The goal of the current study was to estimate the prevalence of these anelloviruses in Qatar. Methods A total of 607 blood ... -
Seroprevalence of Toxoplasma gondii infection in feral cats in Qatar
( BioMed Central , 2017 , Article)Background: Cats are essential in the life cycle of Toxoplasma gondii as they can shed the environmentally resistant oocysts after acquiring infection. Human populations living in cities with high densities of feral cats ...
