An integrative analysis to distinguish between emphysema (EML) and alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency-related emphysema (ADL)-A systems biology approach
( Elsevier , 2021 , Book chapter)Lung Emphysema is an abnormal enlargement of the air sacs followed by the destruction of alveolar walls without any prominent fibrosis. This study primarily identifies the differentially expressed genes (DEGs), interactions ... -
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 ... -
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 ... -
Computational structural assessment of BReast CAncer type 1 susceptibility protein (BRCA1) and BRCA1-Associated Ring Domain protein 1 (BARD1) mutations on the protein-protein interface
( Elsevier , 2022 , Book chapter)Breast cancer type 1 susceptibility protein (BRCA1) is closely related to the BRCA2 (breast cancer type 2 susceptibility protein) and BARD1 (BRCA1-associated RING domain-1) proteins. The homodimers were formed through their ... -
Effect of CYP2C19 genetic variants on bleeding and major adverse cardiovascular events in a cohort of Arab patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention and stent implantation
( Lippincott Williams and Wilkins , 2022 , Article)Introduction One-third of patients have clopidogrel resistance that may lead to major adverse cardiac events (MACEs). By contrast, it was found that some clopidogrel-treated patients have hyperresponsive platelets that are ... -
