Bovine leukemia virus (BLV) is the causative agent of enzootic bovine leucosis. However, less than 5% BLV-infected cattle will develop lymphoma, suggesting that, in addition to viral infection, host genetic polymorphisms might play a role disease susceptibility. leukocyte antigen (BoLA)-DRB3 highly polymorphic gene associated with BLV proviral load (PVL) Due fact that PVL positively progression, it believed controlling can prevent lymphoma development. Thus, many studies have focused on...

Antituberculosis drug-induced liver injury (ATDILI) is a common side effect leading to tuberculosis (TB) treatment disruption. The mechanism of the disease remains poorly understood. We conducted genomewide association study (GWAS) investigate all possible genetic factors ATDILI in Thai patients. This was carried out TB patients, including 79 cases and 239 tolerant controls from our network hospitals Thailand.

The Nicotine Metabolite Ratio (NMR; 3‐hydroxycotinine/cotinine), a highly heritable index of nicotine metabolic inactivation by the CYP2A6 enzyme, is associated with numerous smoking behaviors and diseases, as well unique cessation outcomes. However, NMR cannot be measured in nonsmokers, former smokers, or intermittent for example, evaluating tobacco‐related disease risk. Traditional pharmacogenetic groupings based on * alleles capture modest portion variation. We previously created weighted...

CYP2A6 activity, phenotyped by the nicotine metabolite ratio (NMR), is a predictor of several smoking behaviors, including cessation and smoking-related disease risk. The heritability NMR 60-80%, yet weighted genetic risk scores (wGRSs) based on common variants explain only 30-35%. Rare (minor allele frequency <1%) are hypothesized to some this missing heritability. We present two targeted sequencing studies where rare protein-coding functionally characterized in vivo, silico, vitro examine...
