First Report of SNPs Detection in TMEM154 Gene in Sheep from Poland and Their Association with SRLV Infection Status by Magdalena Materniak-Kornas, Katarzyna Piórkowska, Katarzyna Ropka-Molik, Adrianna Dominika Musiał, Joanna Kowalik, Anna Kycko, Jacek Kuźmak

“…However, when the relationship between SNPs and SRLV proviral load was analyzed, five had a strong association, considering the whole population of tested sheep. Presented data, for the first time, identified the presence of SNPs in TMEM154 gene in sheep housed in Polish flocks and suggested that selecting SRLV-resistant animals based on this analysis might be possible, but further validation in a larger group of sheep is required.…”

Autism spectrum disorder common variants associated with regional lobe volume variations at birth: cross-sectional study in 273 European term neonates in developing human connectom... by Hai Le, Daphna Fenchel, Konstantina Dimitrakopoulou, Hamel Patel, Charles Curtis, Lucilio Cordero-Grande, A. David Edwards, Joseph Hajnal, Jacques-Donald Tournier, Maria Deprez, Harriet Cullen

“…Abstract Increasing lines of evidence suggest cerebral overgrowth in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) children in early life, but few studies have examined the effect of ASD common genetic variants on brain volumes in a general paediatric population. This study examined the association between ASD polygenic risk score (PRS) and volumes of the frontal, temporal, parietal, occipital, fronto-temporal and parieto-occipital lobes in 273 term-born infants of European ancestry in the developing Human Connectome Project. …”
