When two defective gene variants combine, normal protein function can sometimes be restored.
A common genetic variant is linked to a doubled dementia risk for older men, a recent analysis in Neurology suggests. The study used data from Aspirin in Reducing Events in the Elderly (ASPREE), which ...
Putting the uniquely human version of a certain gene into mice changed the way that those animals vocalized to each other, suggesting that this gene may play a role in speech and language. Mice make a ...
A novel genetic variant may be a driving force behind the development of metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) in some cases, according to researchers at the Mayo Clinic in ...
Rare telomere and non-telomere genetic variants significantly affect survival in IPF patients, with non-additive effects on common risk variants. Polygenic risk scores (PRS-IPF) may play a crucial ...
Researchers in Switzerland have conducted the first systematic study that demonstrated that even small variations in a person’s genome can disrupt the therapeutic effects of monoclonal antibodies. “We ...
An estimated 3 million Americans have an inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) such as Crohn's disease or ulcerative colitis. But ...
Genetic inheritance may sound straightforward: One gene causes one trait or a specific illness. When doctors use genetics, it’s usually to try to identify a disease-causing gene to help guide ...
