The genetic contribution to human T2D and related metabolic disorders is evident, and mostly follows polygenic inheritance. The TALLYHO/ JngJ (TH) mice are a polygenic model for T2D characterized by obesity, hyperinsulinemia, impaired glucose uptake and tolerance, hyperlipidemia, and hyperglycemia.

We used “estimate” R package to calculate the immune/stromal/ ESTIMATE scores of each sample of ArrayExpress dataset E-MTAB-8248 based on the ESTIMATE algorithm. &en we found that immune/stromal/ESTIMATE scores were not correlated with age/chromosome 11q, but tumor stage, MYCN gene ampliﬁcations, and chromosome 1p.

However, the resolution and interpretation of QTL linkage mapping or GWAS findings are limited.

An Abstract of Beta-Defensin 3-Mediated Regulation of Transcriptional Changes During Oropharyngeal Candidiasis by Cole Jacob White Submitted to the Graduate Faculty as partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master of Science Degree in Biomedical Science: Bioinformatics, Proteomics and Genomics The University of Toledo August 2018 Oropharyngeal candidiasis (OPC) is a fungal infection of the oral cavity caused by a human commensal fungus called Candida albicans. Even though C. albicans is a commensal, it can become pathogenic in immunocompromised patients. IL-17-mediated antifungal immunity has been implicated as the major pathway for fungal defense in the oral cavity. The IL-17 pathway has been found to regulate the release of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) downstream, including murine β-defensin 3 (mBD3). Murine β-defensin 3 is an antimicrobial peptide involved in the protection of the oral mucosa against pathogens. Murine BD3 can protect the oral mucosa through its direct antimicrobial activity, but it has also been found to have chemotactic properties as well.
