Computational model to analyze and characterize the functional mutations of NOD2 protein causing inflammatory disorder - Blau syndrome.
(
Elsevier
, 2020 , Article)
Blau syndrome (BS), which affects the eyes, skin, and joints, is an autosomal dominant genetic inflammatory disorder. BS is caused by mutations in the NOD2 gene. However, there are no direct treatments, and treatment with ...
Investigation of differentially expressed genes and dysregulated pathways involved in multiple sclerosis
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Book chapter)
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a neurodegenerative autoimmune and organ-specific demyelinating disorder, known to affect the central nervous system (CNS). While genetic studies have revealed several critical genes and diagnostic ...
Analysis of signaling cascades from myeloma cells treated with pristimerin
(
Elsevier
, 2022 , Book chapter)
Multiple myeloma (MM) is the 2nd most frequently diagnosed blood cancer after non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. The present study aimed to identify the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) between the control and pristimerin-treated ...
