In a genetic association study, investigators integrated data from genome-wide association studies of various disorders with retinal transcriptomic data. Findings revealed that the polygenic risk of ...
Genetic testing can confirm a muscular dystrophy (MD) diagnosis when symptoms and other tests already suggest MD. It also identifies specific gene mutations that can guide targeted treatment. Genetic ...
What are the genetic risk factors of brain cancer? As with other types of tumors, brain tumors develop when genetic changes cause cells to replicate uncontrollably. Brain tumors can be cancerous or ...
Inside the gut of a caterpillar lives a worm, and inside the worm lurks a bioluminescent bacterium named Photorhabdus asymbiotica, which makes the caterpillar glow in the dark. But this ...
Cats with a gene type associated with mixed breeds may purr more at their human companions than those without, according to a new study. The findings shed more light on the genetic basis of purring ...
