Article Abstract
Background: According to various epidemiological studies, the aetiology of recurrent miscarriages (RMs) is multifactorial. The goal of this study is to learn more about the link between genetic polymorphisms and RM.
Aim: To evaluate the association of 5-Methytetrahydrofolate-Homocysteine Methyltransferase (MTR) A2756G, 5-Methytetrahydrofolate-Homocysteine Methyltransferase Reductase (MTRR) A66G and cystathionine beta-synthase (CBS) 844INS68 genetic polymorphisms with RM and also to understand the combined effect of the selected genotypes.
Study Setting And Design: This was a hospital-based, case-control, observational study.
Materials And Methods: A total of 516 participants were recruited in the present study, of which 200 RM cases and 258 controls were included in the present study. Fasting blood sample (~5ml) was drawn from all the participants and were screened for genetic polymorphisms of MTR A2756G, MTRR A66G and CBS 844INS68.
Statistical Analysis: The frequency, odd's ratio and Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium were evaluated. SPSS (version 21.0) was used for the data analysis.
Results: MTR A2756G genetic polymorphism was not associated with the risk of RM. The ancestral allele of MTRR A66G and the mutant allele of CBS 844INS68 was causing an increased risk of more than two folds for RM. CBS 844INS68 in combination with MTR A2756G was found to pose an increased risk of more than two folds for RM.
Conclusion: Genetic polymorphisms particularly MTRR A66G and CBS 844INS68 seems to be elevating the risk and hence making women susceptible for RM.

This study aimed to identify the biomarkers that was associated with the postoperative incisional pain in patients with acute cholecystitis undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy surgery (ACC-LC). Sixty ACC-LC patients were enrolled and divided into mild pain (MP) and moderate-to-severe pain (MSP) groups based on their visual analog scale (VAS) scores 24 hours postoperatively. RNA sequencing was used to screen the potential pain associated markers, and ELISA were used to analyze the expression of one identified marker, CXCR5 in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs).

Color polymorphism can influence the evolutionary fate of cryptic species because it increases populations' chances of survival in heterogenous or variable environments. Yet, little is known about the molecular and evolutionary mechanisms underlying the persistence of cryptic color polymorphisms, or the impact these polymorphisms have on the macroevolutionary dynamics of lineages. Here, we examine the evolutionary history of the most widespread cryptic color polymorphism in anurans, involving green and brown morphs.

Background: Lung cancer (LC) is the leading cause of cancer-related deaths globally. Genetic variants in mismatch repair (MMR) genes, such as MutS homolog 2 (MSH2), MutS homolog 6 (MSH6) and MutL homolog 1 (MLH1), may influence individual susceptibility and clinical outcomes in LC.
Objective: This study investigated the associations of genetic polymorphisms in MSH2, MSH6, and MLH1 with susceptibility and survival outcomes in lung cancer patients in the Guangxi Zhuang population.

Background: The chaperoning system, which is responsible for protein homeostasis, plays a significant role in cardiovascular diseases. Among molecular chaperones or heat shock proteins (HSPs), the HSP40 family, the main co-chaperone of HSP70, remains largely underexplored, especially in ischemic heart disease (IHD) risk.
Materials And Results: We genotyped 834 IHD patients and 1,328 healthy controls for three SNPs (rs2034598 and rs7189628 DNAJA2 and rs4926222 DNAJB1) using probe-based real-time PCR.

Epinephelus tukula is an economically important aquaculture animal, and a major parent in grouper crossbreeding. To better preserve and exploit E. tukula germplasm resources, a core collection (containing 34 individuals derived from 10 genetic groups) was first constructed based on phenotypic growth traits and whole-genome resequencing (WGS) data.
