In this study, the system medicine framework comprised 2654 edges and 1609 nodes, with 1370 interacting human genes. Through network modeling analysis, we identified interactions among 39 human target genes for food-borne bacteria, 11 targets for gut methanogens, and nine targets for probiotic bacteria. Gut methanogens target common human genes for their pathophysiological functions. Linoleic acid has emerged as a crosstalk metabolite that determines the abundance of foodborne bacteria. Gut microbes commonly share butyric acid, CO₃, and formaldehyde as metabolic precursors. Most antibiotics interact with human genes that target the gut methanogens and probiotic bacteria. Our study identified fusidic acid, nabiximol, oxacillin, ampicillin, phenoxymethylpenicillin, and cefdinir as repurposable antibiotics against foodborne bacterial infections. Chloroquine, an antimalarial drug, has been suggested as a potential repurposable drug for foodborne infections, owing to its indirect association with many foodborne bacteria via host-mediated interactions. Thus, our system medicine framework could potentially aid in suggesting repurposable antibiotics against food-borne bacterial infections, without affecting beneficial microbes in the human gastrointestinal tract.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100914,"journal":{"name":"Medicine in Omics","volume":"10 ","pages":"Article 100027"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2590124923000081/pdfft?md5=94bb8f9882f44d3d6830b27127295383&pid=1-s2.0-S2590124923000081-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136056282","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The phylogenomic study reveals that the first origination of SARS-CoV-2 isolates (2020) in Turkey has more chance of an occurrence of mutation rate during evolution/new origination. 53 genotypic- and 45 proteomic variants among 83 isolates were found.

Expression of genes linked to these immune pathways and increased cytotoxic immune cell infiltration is primarily associated with HGSC cancer that shows DNA damage repair gene deficiency and high chromosomal instability. Currently, chemotherapy, radiation, and cytoreduction are the most common forms of treatment; nevertheless, in the absence of targeted therapies, patients experience unfavorable side effects and develop drug resistance.
