Asthma is a chronic respiratory disorder characterized by airway inflammation, hyperresponsiveness, and reversible airflow obstruction. Despite therapeutic strategies, asthma remains inadequately controlled in many patients. Genetic predisposition plays a significant role in asthma pathogenesis, and the Proteinase-Activated Receptor 2 (PAR-2), encoded by the F2RL1 gene, has been associated with asthma.

Purpose: Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized cancer treatment by enabling comprehensive cancer genomic profiling (CGP) to guide genotype-directed therapies. While several prospective trials have demonstrated varying outcomes with CGP in patients with advanced solid tumors, its clinical utility in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains to be evaluated.

Methods: We conducted a prospective observational study of CGP in our hospital between September 2019 and March 2024.

Low-cost and high-throughput RNA sequencing data for barley RILs achieved GP performance comparable to or better than traditional SNP array datasets when combined with parental whole-genome sequencing SNP data. The field of genomic selection (GS) is advancing rapidly on many fronts including the utilization of multi-omics datasets with the goal of increasing prediction ability and becoming an integral part of an increasing number of breeding programs ensuring future food security. In this study, we used RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq) data to perform genomic prediction (GP) on three related barley RIL populations.
