Background Dengue remains a significant public health challenge in Malaysia, particularly in Sabah where indigenous populations such as the Kadazan-Dusun and Bajau are highly affected. Host genetic factors, including polymorphisms in immune-related genes, may influence individual susceptibility to dengue infection. This study investigates the association between Intercellular Adhesion Molecule-1 (ICAM-1) rs5498 (K469E) polymor...

Skin ageing is a multifaceted process influenced by both intrinsic genetic factors and extrinsic environmental exposures. This review explores the genetic variants and molecular mechanisms underlying skin ageing phenotypes, while identifying gaps in current research to inform future studies. A systematic search of the Scopus and Web of Science databases was conducted, with articles screened based on criteria including a focus...
