Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a common psychiatric disease. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) are an important class of drugs used in the treatment MDD. However, many patients do not respond adequately to SSRI therapy. We pharmacometabolomics-informed pharmacogenomic research strategy identify citalopram/escitalopram outcome biomarkers. Metabolomic assay plasma samples from 20 escitalopram remitters and nonremitters showed that glycine was negatively associated with (P =...

Circular tumor DNA (ctDNA) is a trace nucleic acid that functions as an essential marker. In this context, the present study proposes one-pot electrochemical analysis of ctDNA EGFR L858R in lung cancer leveraging Ag+-mediated nanosphere (I amplification) and cation exchange reaction (II amplification), Cu2+ acts signal molecule. Once target exists, it specifically destroys structure nanosphere@Ag+, large amounts Ag+ are released. After addition copper sulfide nanoparticles, can be replaced...

Abstract Background Olfactory receptor (OR) genes are the largest multi-gene family in mammalian genome, with 874 human and 1483 loci mouse (including pseudogenes). The expansion of OR gene repertoire has occurred through numerous duplication events followed by diversification, resulting a large number highly similar paralogous genes. These characteristics have made annotation complete complex task. Most been predicted silico typically annotated as intronless coding sequences. Results Here...

Objectives. Colony stimulating factor 2 receptor β (CSF2RB) encodes the protein which is common chain of high affinity for IL-3, IL-5 and CSF. It locates in linkage region 22q12.3 both bipolar disorder schizophrenia, expressed most cells. Methods. We carried out a large scale case–control study to test association between CSF2RB three major mental disorders Chinese Han population. Seven single nucleotide polymorphisms were genotyped 1140 affective patients (including 645 type I patients),...

<div>Abstract<p>Semaphorins are a large family of evolutionarily conserved morphogenetic molecules that associated with repelling axonal guidance. Intriguingly, recent researches indicate semaphorins involved in cancer progression. Semaphorin 4C (SEMA4C) has long been considered neuronal migration gene, but we detected it is also highly expressed many malignant human cancers. During an investigation subcutaneous tumor models, found SEMA4C expression promoted growth and We...
