What genes are involved in the modulation of phenotype in sickle cell disease?

Need to develop and integrate biomarkers of asthma into phenotype/endotype-driven asthma management algorithms

How does inflammatory phenotype in obese asthma modulate response to therapy?

Because traditional knock out models and CRISP/Cas models often show different phenotypes for the same gene deletion, do we need to re-phenotype hundreds/thousands of knock out animal models and revisit the conclusions of many studies based on using these animal models? This research may not appear very innovative but may be very important for drawing correct conclusions about gene functions and interactions - should... more »

It is well-known that cigarette smoking is a major risk factor of heart ischemic disease. However, little information is known about the maternal smoking and fetal programming of heart ischemic disease in adulthood. Recently, e-cigarette (nicotine use) during pregnancy is a worldwide health concern. Epidemiologic studies have indicated that cigarette smoking during pregnancy is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular... more »
