Identification of dysregulated canonical pathways associated with pathogenesis and progression of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis—An integrated bioinformatics approach
(
Elsevier
, 2023 , Article)
The mechanisms responsible for the pathogenesis and progression of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) remain poorly understood, making the diagnosis of ALS challenging. We aimed to find the novel gene biomarkers via ...
Genetic Epidemiology of Type 1 Diabetes in the 22 Arab Countries.
(
Current Medicine Group
, 2016 , Article)
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a complex autoimmune disorder that results from the T cell-mediated destruction of the pancreatic β cells and is due to interactions between environmental and genetic factors. Although Arabs have ...
Enhanced Identification of Transcriptional Enhancers Provides Mechanistic Insights into Diseases.
(
Cell Press
, 2016 , Article)
Enhancers are distal cis-regulatory DNA elements that increase the expression of target genes. Various experimental and computational approaches including chromatin signature profiling have been developed to predict enhancers ...
A profound computational study to prioritize the disease-causing mutations in PRPS1 gene.
(
Springer Verlag
, 2017 , Article)
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease (CMT) is one of the most commonly inherited congenital neurological disorders, affecting approximately 1 in 2500 in the US. About 80 genes were found to be in association with CMT. The phosphoribosyl ...
Integrated gene network analysis sheds light on understanding the progression of Osteosarcoma
(
National library of medicine
, 2023 , Article)
Introduction: Osteosarcoma is a rare disorder among cancer, but the most frequently occurring among sarcomas in children and adolescents. It has been reported to possess the relapsing capability as well as accompanying ...
Durable immunity to oncogenic human papillomaviruses elicited by adjuvanted recombinant Adeno-associated virus-like particle immunogen displaying L2 17-36 epitopes
(
Elsevier
, 2015 , Article)
Vaccination with the minor capsid protein L2, notably the 17–36 neutralizing epitope, induces broadly protective antibodies, although the neutralizing titers attained in serum are substantially lower than for the licensed ...
Comparison of potential inhibitors and targeting fat mass and obesity-associated protein causing diabesity through docking and molecular dynamics strategies.
(
Wiley
, 2021 , Article)
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified an association between polymorphisms in the FTO gene and obesity. The FTO: rs9939609, an intronic variant, is considered a risk allele for developing diabesity in ...
Understanding the structure-function relationship of HPRT1 missense mutations in association with Lesch-Nyhan disease and HPRT1-related gout by in silico mutational analysis.
(
Elsevier
, 2019 , Article)
The nucleotide salvage pathway is used to recycle degraded nucleotides (purines and pyrimidines); one of the enzymes that helps to recycle purines is hypoxanthine guanine phosphoribosyl transferase 1 (HGPRT1). Therefore, ...
Enhanced production of anthraquinones by gamma-irradiated cell cultures of Rubia cordifolia in a bioreactor
(
Elsevier
, 2019 , Article)
The aim of this study was to obtain high-yielding cell cultures of Rubia cordifolia by applying gamma irradiation and subsequently scaling up for anthraquinone production in a bioreactor. Calli cultured on MS medium was ...
Spectrum of mutations of familial hypercholesterolemia in the 22 Arab countries.
(
Elsevier
, 2018 , Article)
Familial hypercholesterolemia (FH) is an inherited genetic disorder of lipid metabolism characterized by a high serum LDL-cholesterol profile and xanthoma formation, and FH increases the risk of premature atherosclerosis ...
