Pharmacogenomics of sickle cell disease therapeutics: pain and drug metabolism associated gene variants and hydroxyurea-induced post-transcriptional expression of miRNAs by Mnika,Khuthala

“…Based on the PharmacoScan analyses, no statistically significant differences in allele frequencies were detected between SCD cases and controls from Cameroon. A principal component analysis (PCA) revealed that Cameroonians' data clustered with other Africans, but this population is significantly distinct from American, European and Asian populations data. …”

Sickle cell trait and targeted genomic variants in chronic kidney disease an African cohort by Masekoameng, Tshepiso

“…Functional pathway analysis: following the identification SNPs with significant association with CKD, we performed functional pathway test using the Linux programme Cytoscape. Results The mean age of cases was 53 years (range 46-55 years), with 43% that were female; there were no age and sex significant differences with controls. …”
