Human Genetics

1.2K
Human genetics provides a profound framework for understanding the interplay between genetic predispositions and human psychology. At the heart of this discipline lies the study of how genes influence physical traits, behaviors, and susceptibility to diseases. Each person carries a unique genetic code that subtly or significantly shapes their psychological and behavioral landscape.
The complex relationship between genetics and psychology is observable through common biological components such...

Irritable Bowel Syndrome I: Introduction

730
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is characterized by functional disturbances in the gastrointestinal system, presenting a cluster of symptoms without evident structural or biochemical abnormalities. It primarily affects the large intestine and may cause abdominal pain, bloating, excessive gas, diarrhea, constipation, or both.
IBS is a chronic condition that can persist over a long period or recur frequently.
The pathogenesis of IBS involves a complex interplay of the following factors:
Altered...

Anatomy of the Intestines

85.8K
Although digestion of proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids may begin in the stomach, it is completed in the intestine. The absorption of nutrients, water, and electrolytes from food and drink also occurs in the intestine. The intestines can be divided into two structurally distinct organs—the small and large intestines.
Small Intestines
The small intestine is an ~7 meter-long tube with an inner diameter of just 2.5 cm. Since most nutrients are absorbed here, the inner lining of the...

Area of Science:

  • Microbiome research
  • Neuroscience
  • Computational biology

Background:

  • Gut microbiota influence neurotransmitter production, implicated in mental disorders.
  • Existing research often separates gut microbiota-neurotransmitter and neurotransmitter-mental disorder studies.
  • A systematic approach is needed to connect dispersed findings.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To construct a comprehensive gut microbiota knowledge graph for mental disorders (MiKG4MD).
  • To integrate and analyze existing research on the gut microbiota-mental disorder relationship.
  • To enable prediction of potential links between gut microbiota and mental health conditions.

Main Methods:

  • Developed MiKG4MD, a structured knowledge base.
  • Designed for extendibility and integration with existing ontologies (UMLS, MeSH, KEGG).
  • Validated using SPARQL query test cases.

Main Results:

  • MiKG4MD effectively organizes dispersed research findings.
  • Demonstrated the knowledge graph's capability in predicting gut microbiota-mental disorder relationships.
  • SPARQL queries confirmed the model's predictive performance.

Conclusions:

  • MiKG4MD provides a novel, structured approach to understanding the gut microbiota's role in mental disorders.
  • The knowledge graph facilitates the identification and prediction of complex gut-brain axis interactions.
  • This extendable framework supports future research and integration with broader biomedical ontologies.
