  • Purpose: The rs641738 C>T in membrane-bound O-acyltransferase domain-containing protein 7 (MBOAT7) is implicated, along with the rs738409 C>G polymorphism in patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing protein 3 (PNPLA3), in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The association of these polymorphisms and NAFLD are investigated in Hispanic children with obesity. Methods: Obese children with and without NAFLD were enrolled at a pediatric tertiary care health system and genotyped for MBOAT7 rs641738 C>T and PNPLA3 rs738409 C>G. NAFLD was characterized by the ultrasonographic presence of hepatic steatosis along with persistently elevated liver enzymes. Genetic variants and demographic and biochemical data were analyzed for the effects on NAFLD. Results: Among 126 enrolled subjects, 84 in the case group had NAFLD and 42 in the control group did not. The two groups had similar demographic distribution. NAFLD was associated with abnormal liver enzymes and elevated triglycerides and cholesterol (p<0.05). Children with NAFLD had higher percentage of PNPLA3 GG genotype at 70.2% versus 31.0% in non-NAFLD, and lower MBOAT7 TT genotype at 4.8% versus 16.7% in non-NAFLD (p<0.05). PNPLA3 rs738409 C>G had an additive effect in NAFLD; however, MBOAT7 rs641738 C>T had no effects alone or synergistically with PNPLA3 polymorphism. NAFLD risk increased 3.7-fold in subjects carrying PNPLA3 GG genotype and decreased in MBOAT7 TT genotype. Conclusion: In Hispanic children with obesity, PNPLA3 rs738409 C>G polymorphism increased the risk for NAFLD. The role of MBOAT7 rs641738 variant in NAFLD is less evident.

  • Announcements by many companies have shown that market interest and technical potential exist for AMOLEDs. DuPont Displays is developing solution processing technology designed to address the high cost of manufacturing AMOLEDs via vapor deposition methods. By printing OLED displays, we can reduce costs and can subsequently scale OLED manufacturing to a competitive motherglass size.

  • Glutinous rice is a key grain quality trait occupying an important part during rice processing in most rice growing areas. Amylose content (AC) of rice determine eating quality which is one of the major traits in rice breeding program. In this study, a gene pyramiding approach was used to introduce two dull genes, responsible for low amylose contents, for glutinous rice breeding using marker assisted selection (MAS). Two dull genes were located on chromosome 6 (wx-mq, AC: 12.7 %) and chromosome 10 (du1, AC: 10.3%), respectively. To test whether these two dull genes have an epistatic interaction, we developed an F2 population by crossing two nearly isogenic lines(NILs) harboring wx-mq and du1. Gene based marker and KASP marker were used to select NILs(NIL-nor, NIL-wxmq, NIL-du1, and NIL-wxmq/du1) from the F2 population. A two-way ANOVA revealed an epistatic interaction between the two genes in the F2 population. The mean of Amylose contents for NIL-nor, NIL-wxwq, NIL-(du1, and NIL-wxmq/du1 were 17.3%, 12.5%, 9.7%, and 7.2%, respectively. This interaction was confirmed by an analysis of NILs indicating that both genes are involved in the same genetic mechanism controlling amylose contents. This result will be useful for rice breeding related to amylose content.
