Clinical Relevance of HLA Gene Variants in HBV Infection by Li Wang, Zhi-Qiang Zou, Kai Wang

“…The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) system, the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) in humans, is one of the most important host factors that are correlated with the clinical course of HBV infection. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have shown that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) near certain HLA gene loci are strongly associated with not only persistent HBV infection but also spontaneous HBV clearance and seroconversion, disease progression, and the development of liver cirrhosis and HBV-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in chronic hepatitis B (CHB). …”

FBXO31-mediated ubiquitination of OGT maintains O-GlcNAcylation homeostasis to restrain endometrial malignancy by Na Zhang, Yang Meng, Song Mao, Huiling Ni, Canhua Huang, Licong Shen, Kun Fu, Lu Lv, Chunhong Yu, Piyanat Meekrathok, Chunmei Kuang, Fang Chen, Yu Zhang, Kai Yuan

“…Here we report that O-GlcNAcylation level is positively correlated with EC histologic grade in a Chinese cohort containing 219 tumors, validated in The Cancer Genome Atlas dataset. Increasing O-GlcNAcylation in patient-derived endometrial epithelial organoids promotes proliferation and stem-like cell properties, whereas decreasing O-GlcNAcylation limits the growth of endometrial cancer organoids. …”

Studying the effect of the OsGATA rice transcription factor on salt stress tolerance in wheat by A. A. Verbitskaia, A. S. Egorova, E. A. Tsarkova, A. K. Gaponenko

“…Genetic transformation methods were used to introduce the GATA gene into the genome of the used wheat genotypes. Transgenic lines were selected on selective media under in vitro conditions.The results of the experimental work showed that the expression of the GATA gene under salt stress may be responsible for the increased compartmentalization of Na+ in the vacuole, which provides improved salt tolerance. …”
