Challenges in Laboratory Diagnosis of the Novel Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2
(
MDPI
, 2020 , Article)
The recent outbreak of the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has quickly spread worldwide since its discovery in Wuhan city, China in December 2019. A comprehensive strategy, including surveillance, diagnostics, research, ...
A Whole-Genome Sequencing Association Study of Low Bone Mineral Density Identifies New Susceptibility Loci in the Phase I Qatar Biobank Cohort.
(
MDPI
, 2021 , Article)
Bone density disorders are characterized by a reduction in bone mass density and strength, which lead to an increase in the susceptibility to sudden and unexpected fractures. Despite the serious consequences of low bone ...
A novel homozygous TPM1 mutation in familial pediatric hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and in silico screening of potential targeting drugs.
(
Verduci Editore s.r.l.
, 2020 , Article)
Familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common genetic cardiac disease. While sarcomeric gene mutations explain many HCM cases, the genetic basis of about half of HCM cases remains elusive. Here we aimed to ...
Molecular dynamics, residue network analysis, and cross-correlation matrix to characterize the deleterious missense mutations in GALE causing galactosemia III.
(
Springer
, 2021 , Article)
Epimerase-deficiency galactosemia (EDG) is caused by mutations in the UDP-galactose 4'-epimerase enzyme, encoded by gene GALE. Catalyzing the last reaction in the Leloir pathway, UDP-galactose-4-epimerase catalyzes the ...
Mutational landscape of K-Ras substitutions at 12th position-a systematic molecular dynamics approach
(
Taylor and Francis
, 2020 , Article)
K-Ras is a small GTPase and acts as a molecular switch by recruiting GEFs and GAPs, and alternates between the inert GDP-bound and the dynamic GTP-bound forms. The amino acid at position 12 of K-Ras is a hot spot for ...
Involvement of caveolae in hyperglycemia-induced changes in adiponectin and leptin expressions in vascular smooth muscle cells
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Hyperglycemia exerts various harmful effects on the vasculature. Studies have shown an association between the levels of the adipokines leptin and adiponectin (APN) and vascular complications in diabetes mellitus. The aim ...
SARS-CoV-2 infection among primary healthcare workers: a cross- sectional study
(
GERMS
, 2021 , Article)
Healthcare workers (HCWs) are critical to the healthcare system and are at an increased risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection. They may acquire infections from the community and their work settings. To date, the majority of the ...
Genetic Epidemiology of Beta-Thalassemia in the Maldives: 23 years of a Beta-Thalassemia Screening Program.
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
The Maldives is an archipelago of 407,660 people according to population census of 2014, made up of 20 atolls, which has one of the highest prevalence of β-thalassemia worldwide. However, there is a dearth of studies related ...
Enzyme therapy: a forerunner in catalyzing a healthy society?
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2020 , Article)
The use of enzymes in various industries has been prevalent for centuries. However, their potency as therapeutics remained latent until the late 1950 s, when scientists finally realized the gold mine they were sitting on. ...
SARS-CoV-2 antibody-positivity protects against reinfection for at least seven months with 95% efficacy
(
Elsevier
, 2021 , Article)
Background Reinfection with the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has been documented, raising public health concerns. SARS-CoV-2 reinfections were assessed in a cohort of antibody-positive persons ...
