Vitamin D regulates two human chromosomal loci, Chr17q12-21.1 and Chr17q21.2, that are associated with autoimmune and chronic inflammatory diseases.

Results in mice suggest that vitamin D reduces the symptoms of asthma by controlling an immune response that leads to inflammation of the airways.

Find My Understudied Genes (FMUG) is a data-driven tool created to counteract the abandonment of understudied genes in -omics research.

Mendelian randomization and transcriptome-wide association studies delineate the causal relationships and genetic markers between circulating immune cells and periodontitis, pinpointing neutrophils as the predominant contributors.

Mouse models reveal fundamental roles of SMAD1/5 in mediating both bone morphogenetic protein signaling pathways and the transcriptional response to progesterone during decidualization.

Measurement of the effect of all single-codon variants of the AAV2 rep gene on recombinant adeno-associated virus production identifies novel beneficial variants, which may facilitate improvement of gene therapy production.

Endothelial cell subpopulations are characterized by unique gene expression profiles, epigenetic landscapes and functional properties.

Abundant mitochondrial DNA of long-extinct large mammals in recent sediment of Siberian lakes suggests complex taphonomic redistribution.

Variation in the rate of alternative splicing across animals are mainly driven by differences in the rate of splicing errors.
