Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems are a large group of small genetic modules found in prokaryotes and their mobile elements. Type II TAs encoded as bicistronic (two-gene) operons that encode two proteins: toxin neutralizing antitoxin. Using our tool NetFlax (standing for Network-FlaGs toxins antitoxins), we have performed large-scale bioinformatic analysis proteinaceous TAs, revealing interconnected clusters constituting core network TA-like gene pairs. To understand the structural basis...

Abstract Accurate placenta pathology assessment is essential for managing maternal and newborn health, but the placenta’s heterogeneity temporal variability pose challenges histology analysis. To address this issue, we developed ‘Histology Analysis Pipeline.PY’ (HAPPY), a deep learning hierarchical method quantifying of cells micro-anatomical tissue structures across whole slide images. HAPPY differs from patch-based features or segmentation approaches by following an interpretable...

Abstract Study question Can a large-scale GWAS meta-analysis identify the genomic risk loci and associated candidate genes for FGT polyps? Summary answer We identified ten loci, with two exonic missense variants in PRIM1 COL17A1 genes, highlighting shared mechanisms cancerous processes. What is known already Small-scale gene studies have focused on biological processes such as oestrogen stimulation inflammation to clarify biology behind polyps. However, exact mechanism development of polyps...

Abstract STUDY QUESTION Can a large-scale genome-wide association study (GWAS) meta-analysis identify the genomic risk loci and associated candidate genes for female genital tract (FGT) polyps, provide insights into mechanism underlying their development, inform potential overlap with other traits, including endometrial cancer? SUMMARY ANSWER GWAS of FGT polyps highlighted potentially shared mechanisms between polyp development cancerous processes. WHAT IS KNOWN ALREADY Small-scale gene...
