Molecular similarity of multifactorial and Mendelian diseases

https://doi.org/10.25557/2073-7998.2022.07.30-32

Abstract

The genetic relationship of 22 multifactorial and 6 Mendelian diseases based on data extracted from the curated DisGenNet database were studied. The coefficient of genetic «commonality» between diseases was calculated and as well as methods of clustering and prioritization were used. As a result, a pronounced common hereditary component of multifactorial diseases of various pathogenetic groups was established. The assessment of molecular similarity between Mendelian and multifactorial diseases is significantly limits due to incomplete knowledge about the contribution of genes.
