The identification of modules (groups of several tightly interconnected genes) in gene interaction network is an essential task for better understanding of the architecture of the whole network. In th...
Multi-omics data driven investigations of metabolic diversity of plant triterpenoids.
A vast majority of structurally diverse metabolites play essential roles in mediating the interactions between plants and environments, and constitute a valuable resource for industrial applications. ...
Jatropha curcas is an oil-rich seed crop with huge potentials for bioenergy production. The inflorescence carries a number of processes that are likely to affect the overall yield potentials; floral d...
The molecular factors involved in the pathophysiology of major depressive disorder (MDD) remain poorly understood. One approach to examine the molecular basis of MDD is co-expression network analysis,...
Leveraging insights from genomic studies of patient tumors is limited by the discordance between these tumors and the cell line models used for functional studies. We integrate omics datasets using fu...
This is a new gene discovery program for individuals with PCD who do not have a specific genetic etiology identified. Research procedures involve a single blood draw from the affected indi...
This study aims to explore whether the increased supply of dietary plant sterols and plant stanols have any influence on serum levels of phytosterols and on consistency of carotid atheroma...
Lipid-lowering Effect of Plant Stanol Ester Yoghurt Drinks
The aim is to investigate the effects of yoghurt drinks containing two doses of plant stanol ester either with or without added camelina oil on the serum cholesterol levels in moderately h...
APOA2 Gene, Diet, Inflammation and Gut Health
Nutrients and chemicals in food are able to regulate expression of genetic elements. Gene-nutrient interaction in response to unhealthy diets can increase an individual's risk, shifting th...
Dietary Phytosterols and Human Aortic Valve
This randomized controlled double-blind intervention study unravels influence of dietary plant sterols and stanols on the structure and the sterol composition of the human aortic valve. Th...
Bioprospecting
The systematic search and discovery of natural substances which may have potential commercial applications.
Nanoconjugates
Tailored macromolecules harboring covalently-bound biologically active modules that target specific tissues and cells. The active modules or functional groups can include drugs, prodrugs, antibodies, and oligonucleotides, which can act synergistically and be multitargeting.
Molecular Farming
The large scale production of pharmaceutically important and commercially valuable RECOMBINANT PROTEINS.
Plant Development
Processes orchestrated or driven by a plethora of genes, plant hormones, and inherent biological timing mechanisms facilitated by secondary molecules, which result in the systematic transformation of plants and plant parts, from one stage of maturity to another.
Epigenomics
The systematic study of the global gene expression changes due to EPIGENETIC PROCESSES and not due to DNA base sequence changes.
