Non-coding RNA expression has shown to have cell type-specificity. The regulatory characteristics of these molecules are impacted by changes in their expression levels. We performed next-generation sequencing ...
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) colonization increases the risk of subsequent infection by MRSA strain complex interlinking between hospital and community-acquired MRSA which increases the chan...
Prostate cancer (PCa) stands as the second most prevalent malignancy impacting male health, and the disease’s evolutionary course presents formidable challenges in the context of patient treatment and prognost...
Persons living with HIV (PWH) harbor an altered gut microbiome (higher abundance of Prevotella and lower abundance of Bacillota and Ruminococcus lineages) compared to non-infected individuals. Some of these alter...
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC), the most prevalent form of oral cancer, poses significant challenges to the medical community due to its high recurrence rate and low survival rate. Mitochondrial Damage-Re...
Congenital Myasthenic Syndromes (CMS) are rare genetic diseases, which share as a common denominator muscle fatigability due to failure of neuromuscular transmission. A distinctive clinical feature of presynap...
Hereditary spherocytosis (HS, MIM#612641) is one of the most common hereditary hemolytic disorders. This study aimed to confirm a novel variant’s pathogenicity and reveal a patient’s genetic etiology.
