The DNA methylome of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) reflects intrinsic and extrinsic factors in intestinal mucosal cells
(Taylor & Francis, 2020-04-12)
Abnormal DNA methylation has been described in human inflammatory conditions of the gastrointestinal tract, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). As other complex diseases, IBD results from the balance between genetic ...
Identifcation of Loci Associated with Susceptibility to Bovine Paratuberculosis and with the Dysregulation of the MECOM, eEF1A2, and U1 Spliceosomal RNA Expression
(Springer Nature, 2021-01-11)
Although genome-wide association studies have identified single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with the susceptibility to Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) infection, only a few functional ...
Transcription Factor Binding Site Enrichment Analysis In Co-Expression Modules In Celiac Disease
(MDPI, 2018-05-10)
The aim of this study was to construct celiac co-expression patterns at a whole genome level and to identify transcription factors (TFs) that could drive the gliadin-related changes in coordination of gene expression ...
Gluten-induced RNA methylation changes regulate intestinal inflammation via allele-specific XPO1 translation in epithelial cells
(BMJ, 2022-01)
[EN] Objectives Coeliac disease (CD) is a complex autoimmune disorder that develops in genetically susceptible individuals. Dietary gluten triggers an immune response for which the only available treatment so far is a ...
shinyCurves, a shiny web application to analyse multisource qPCR amplification data: a COVID‑19 case study
(BMC, 2021-10-03)
[EN]Background Quantitative, reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR) is currently the gold-standard for SARS-CoV-2 detection and it is also used for detection of other virus. Manual data analysis of a small number of qRT-PCR ...
MAGI2 Gene Region and Celiac Disease
(Frontiers Media, 2019-12-19)
Celiac disease (CD) patients present a loss of intestinal barrier function due to structural alterations in the tight junction (TJ) network, the most apical unions between epithelial cells. The association of TJ-related ...
A meta-analysis of pre-pregnancy maternal body mass index and placental DNA methylation identifies 27 CpG sites with implications for mother-child health
(Nature, 2022-11)
Higher maternal pre-pregnancy body mass index (ppBMI) is associated with increased neonatal morbidity, as well as with pregnancy complications and metabolic outcomes in offspring later in life. The placenta is a key organ ...
Novel Loci for Childhood Body Mass Index and Shared Heritability with Adult Cardiometabolic Traits
(Public Library Science, 2020-10-12)
The genetic background of childhood body mass index (BMI), and the extent to which the well-known associations of childhood BMI with adult diseases are explained by shared genetic factors, are largely unknown. We performed ...
Celiac Diasease-associated lncRNA Named HCG14 Regulates NOD1 Expression in Intestinal Cells
(Wiley, 2018-08-01)
Objective:
The aim of the study is to identify additional celiac disease associated loci in the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) independent from classical HLA risk alleles (HLA-DR3-DQ2) and to characterize their ...
