MOLECULAR PATHWAYS IDENTIFIED FROM SINGLE NUCLEOTIDE POLYMORPHISMS DEMONSTRATE MECHANISTIC DIFFERENCES IN SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS PATIENTS OF ASIAN AND EUROPEAN ANCESTRY

Abstract Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a multi-organ autoimmune disorder with a prominent genetic component.Individuals of Asian-Ancestry (AsA) disproportionately experience more severe SLE compared to individuals of European-Ancestry (EA), including increased renal involvement and tissue damage.However, the mechanisms underlying elevated s

Abstract Background Pepper mild mottle virus (PMMoV) is a member in the genus Tobamovirus and infects mainly solanaceous plants.However, the mechanism of virus-host interactions remains unclear.To explore the responses of pepper plants to PMMoV infection, we analyzed the transcriptomic changes in pepper plants after PMMoV infection using a high-thr

Dimethyl ether (DME) could have a promising future as a sustainable diesel fuel replacement as it requires only relatively minor engine modifications.It can be produced from renewable H2 and captured CO2 using Power-to-X technologies.To gain support through the EU Renewable Energy Directive, the production and use of CO2-derived DME as a fuel needs
