متن کاملGenomewide association study of leprosy.
BACKGROUND The narrow host range of Mycobacterium leprae and the fact that it is refractory to growth in culture has limited research on and the biologic understanding of leprosy. Host genetic factors are thought to influence susceptibility to infection as well as disease progression. METHODS We performed a two-stage genomewide association study by genotyping 706 patients and 1225 controls us...
متن کاملHow to Boost Your Immune System Against Corona-virus Infection?
New emerging viruses like coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) infections are always frightening. We know little about theirtransmission, behaviors, clinical manifestations, and outcomes. There is no vaccine or therapeutic strategies to dealwith these infections yet. In this situation, preventive measures may be promising.

متن کاملX Chromosome Inactivation in Opioid Addicted Women
Introduction: X chromosome inactivation (XCI) is a process during which one of the two X chromosomes in female human is silenced leading to equal gene expression with males who have only one X chromosome. Here we have investigated XCI ratio in females with opioid addiction to see whether XCI skewness in women could be a risk factor for opioid addiction. Methods: 30 adult females meeting DS...
متن کاملGene-centric genomewide association study via entropy.
Genes are the functional units in most organisms. Compared to genetic variants located outside genes, genic variants are more likely to affect disease risk. The development of the human HapMap project provides an unprecedented opportunity for genetic association studies at the genomewide level for elucidating disease etiology. Currently, most association studies at the single-nucleotide polymor...
