Article Abstract
Meningioma, a prevalent central nervous system tumour, presents a significant challenge in neuro-oncology. This study harnesses genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and transcriptomic analysis to illuminate the pathological underpinnings of meningioma and spearhead the discovery of novel drug targets. By employing summary-data-based Mendelian randomization (SMR), colocalization analyses and Mendelian randomization, we pinpointed four genes as pivotal therapeutic targets. The integration of bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing confirmed the upregulated expression of three of the genes (, and ) in meningioma tissues, unravelling their cellular distribution and hinting at the tumour's intrinsic heterogeneity. Molecular docking further identified dexamethasone and levonorgestrel as potential modulators of these targets, paving the way for personalized meningioma treatment strategies. This research advances our understanding of meningioma's molecular landscape and illustrates the power of genomic and transcriptomic integration in the realm of precision oncology.

Legumes are essential for agriculture and food security. Biotic and abiotic stresses pose significant challenges to legume production, lowering productivity levels. Most legumes must be genetically improved by introducing alleles that give pest and disease resistance, abiotic stress adaptability, and high yield potential.

Background: Comorbidities and genetic correlations between gastrointestinal tract diseases and psychiatric disorders have been widely reported, but the underlying intrinsic link between Alzheimer's disease (AD) and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is not adequately understood.
Methods: To identify pathogenic cell types of AD and IBD and explore their shared genetic architecture, we developed Pathogenic Cell types and shared Genetic Loci (PCGL) framework, which studied AD and IBD and its two subtypes of ulcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD).
Results: We found that monocytes and CD8 T cells were the enriched pathogenic cell types of AD and IBDs, respectively.

TP53 mutations are highly associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), a common and deadly cancer. However, few primary drivers in the progression of HCC with mutant TP53 have been identified. To uncover tumor suppressors in human HCC, a genome-wide CRISPR/Cas9-based screening of primary human hepatocytes with MYC and TP53 overexpression (MT-PHHs) is performed in xenografts.

Background: Prostatic diseases, consisting of prostatitis, benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH), and prostate cancer (PCa), pose significant health challenges. While single-omics studies have provided valuable insights into the role of mitochondrial dysfunction in prostatic diseases, integrating multi-omics approaches is essential for uncovering disease mechanisms and identifying therapeutic targets.
Methods: A genome-wide meta-analysis was conducted for prostatic diseases using the genome-wide association studies (GWAS) data from FinnGen and UK Biobank.
