背景情况:
- 补腺炎 (HS) 是一种慢性炎症性皮肤疾病,具有很高的遗传性和多样化的临床表现.
- 以前对HS的遗传研究往往缺乏详细的临床或免疫学数据,并使用了无法匹配的对照.
- 这项研究将基因组,蛋白质组和pQTL分析与匹配的健康比较器相结合,以调查HS的分子基础.
研究的目的:
- 通过全基因组关联研究 (GWAS) 在希腊队列中识别与HS易感性相关的遗传变异.
- 通过整合蛋白质基因分析和蛋白质定量特征位点 (pQTL) 映射,评估已识别的变异是否会影响系统性炎症.
主要方法:
- 一项病例控制研究包括314名HS患者和81名匹配的希腊血统健康对照.
- 全基因组关联研究 (GWAS) 在基因组DNA上进行,并使用Olink蛋白质组学平台测量炎症蛋白质水平.
- 用FinnGen生物库对GWAS数据进行了元分析,并使用了公开可用的pQTL数据集.
主要成果:

Pharmacogenomics: Identification of New Drug Targets
56
Advances in genomics have profoundly influenced drug discovery by increasing both the speed and accuracy of pharmaceutical development. Pharmacogenomics, which examines how genetic variation influences drug response, facilitates the identification of novel therapeutic targets and enables patient stratification for personalized treatment. These strategies contribute to improved drug efficacy, minimized adverse effects, and more efficient clinical trial design.Mapping genetic differences...

Proteomics
10.0K
A proteome is the entire set of proteins that a cell type produces. We can study proteomes using the knowledge of genomes because genes code for mRNAs, and the mRNAs encode proteins. Although mRNA analysis is a step in the right direction, not all mRNAs are translated into proteins.
Proteomics is the study of proteomes' function. It involves the large-scale systematic study of the proteome to denote the protein complement expressed by a genome. Scientist Mark Wilkins coined the term...
