Abstract
Physical and chemical changes in the natural of water may affect biological organisms. In this study, we highlight the effect of magnetized-water and microwave-water on rats' liver tissues. Three groups of albino rats were separated. The first, rats were administered tap-water. The second, rats were administered magnetized-water. The third, rats were administered microwave-water. After two months, the results revealed a significant increase in liver functioning enzymes' levels and bilirubin in rats administered microwave-water, compared to tap- and magnetic-water. In relation to oxidative stress, there was a significant increase and decrease in oxidative and antioxidant parameters respectively in liver tissues of rat's administrated microwave-water. At the molecular level, there was a significant down-regulation in Metallothionein, CYP genes in magnetic-water compared to tap-water. Rats administered microwave-water have shown a significant down-regulation in GST, Metallothionein and CYP genes' expression, however, Amylase and HDAC3 genes were significantly up-regulated, compared to the other groups. The intake of microwave-water resulted in notable histopathological changes in liver tissues. Rats administered magnetic-water showed no clear changes in their liver tissues. In summary, microwave-water induced stress and epigenetic effects compared with magnetic-water and tap-water. Also, magnetic-water produced from the higher magnetic power had no side effect on liver tissues.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The PSMB8 and PSMB9 immunoproteasome genes are essential in cell processes, such as decisions on cell survival or death, the cell cycle, and cellular differentiation. Because recent evidence has demonstrated an immunological role for proteasomes in various malignancies, including urothelial bladder carcinoma (UBC), we evaluated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in PSMB9 and PSMB8. We determined any associations between these SNPs and susceptibility to UBC in the Saudi community. METHODS Samples of genomic DNA were taken from buccal cells of 111 patients with UBC and 78 healthy controls. TaqMan Real-Time PCR was used to determine genotype distributions and allele frequencies for the PSMB9 rs17587 G>A and PSMB8 rs2071543 G>T SNPs. We used SNPStats (https://www.snpstats.net) to choose each SNP's best interactive inheritance model. RESULTS The PSMB9 rs17587 SNP was associated with the risk of UBC (odds ratio [OR] = 5.21, P < 0.0001). In contrast, the PSMB8 rs2071543 SNP showed no association with UBC risk (OR = 1.13, P = 0.7871). In terms of genotypic distribution, the rs17587 G>A SNP was more frequent in UBC cases than controls in both the dominant (OR = 7.5; 95% confidence interval, 3.7-15.1; P = 0.0051) and recessive (OR = 17.11, 95% confidence interval 5.1-57.4; P = 0.0026) models. Genotypic distribution of the PSMB8 rs2071543 G>T SNP was not significantly different between cases and controls in any interactive inheritance models (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION These results suggest a potential role for PSMB9 as a biomarker for increased UBC risk. Discovering more genetic variants within immunoproteasome genes related to antigen presentation could help further our understanding of this risk.

Abstract
Introduction: Several recent studies pointed out that chromodomain-helicase-DNA-binding protein 1-like (CHD1L) is a putative oncogene in many human tumors. However, up to date, there is no pan-cancer analysis performed to study the different aspects of this gene expression and behavior in tumor tissues. Methods: Here, we applied several bioinformatics tools to make a comprehensive analysis for CHD1L. Firstly we assessed the expression of CHD1L in several types of human tumors and tried to correlate that with the stage and grade of the analyzed tumors. Following that, we performed a survival analysis to study the correlation between CHD1L upregulation in tumors and the clinical outcome. Additionally, we investigated the mutation forms, the correlation with several immune cell infiltration, and the potential molecular mechanisms of CHD1L in the tumor tissue. Result and discussion: The results demonstrated that CHD1L is a highly expressed gene across several types of tumors and that was correlated with a poor prognosis for most cancer patients. Moreover, it was found that CHD1L affects the tumor immune microenvironment by influencing the infiltration level of several immune cells. Collectively, the current study provides a comprehensive overview of the oncogenic roles of CHD1L where our results nominate CHD1L as a potential prognostic biomarker and target for antitumor therapy development.

Abstract
Background The antigen processing 1 (TAP1) and proteasome 20S subunit beta 9 (PSMB9) genes are associated with strong susceptibility to many autoimmune diseases. Here, we explored whether TAP1/PSMB9 genetic variants, individually or combined, affected susceptibility to the complex, autoimmune-based skin disorder vitiligo. Methods Samples of genomic DNA from buccal cells of 172 patients with vitiligo and 129 healthy controls were analyzed using TaqMan™ genotyping assays for the TAP1 rs1135216 (A>G) and PSMB9 rs17587 (A>G) single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). SNPStats software (https://www.snpstats.net) was utilized to choose the best interactive inheritance mode for selected SNPs. Results The genotype frequencies for the TAP1 rs1135216 and PSMB9 rs17587 SNPs were in Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium for cases (P= 0.11 and P= 0.10, respectively) but not for controls (P< 0.05). The TAP1 rs1135216 (D637G) and PSMB9 rs17587 (R60H) SNPs increased the risk of vitiligo four-fold and two-fold, respectively (odds ratio [OR]= 4.6; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.2-6.5; P< 0.0001 and OR= 2.2; 95% CI, 1.5-3.1; P< 0.0001). The recessive model (G/G-D/G versus D/D) and the codominant model (R/R versus R/H) were the best models of inheritance for the rs113526 and rs17587 SNPs, respectively (OR= 16.4; 95% CI, 2.0-138; P= 0.0006 and OR= 1.7; 95% CI, 0.3-1.8; P= 0.013). Vulgaris, focal vulgaris, and acryl/acrofacial were the most common vitiligo subtypes in our sample (51%, 21%, and 19%, respectively). Heterozygous rs113526 (637D/G) and rs17587 (60R/H) were the most common genotypes in most vitiligo subtypes. The heterozygous 637D/G genotype and the 637G variant allele were significantly more common in patients with active disease than in patients with stable disease (P= 0.000052 and P= 0.0063, respectively). Conclusion Our findings suggest a crucial role for TAP1 rs1135216 and PSMB9 rs17587 in the risk and progression of vitiligo in the Saudi community. Genomic analyses are needed to identify more candidate genes and more genetic variants associated with vitiligo.
