Dysregulation of dopamine (DA) signaling and redox homeostasis contributes to multiple neuropsychiatric and neurodegenerative disorders. Polymorphisms that influence the activity of catechol‑O‑methyltransferase (COMT), an enzyme critical for degrading dopamine (DA) in the dorsolateral prefrontal cor...
Murine B cells can be activated via the surface receptors TLR4 and CD40. For a global assessment of differences in gene expression between these two different modes of B cell activation a genome wide transcriptome analysis was performed. In order to dissect different gene expression profiles of B ce...
Duplication of the genome in mammalian cells occurs in a defined temporal order referred as its replication-timing program (RT). RT is regulated in units of 400-800 Kb referred as replication domains (RDs) and changes dynamically during development. Changes in RT are generally coordinated with trans...
The National Cancer Institute (NCI) genome-wide association study (GWAS) of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) was conducted to investigate common genetic variants associated with RCC risk. The GWAS includes 1,453 RCC cases and 3,531 controls of European background from 4 studies (3 cohort, 1 case-con...
