New Research Sorting Out Risk Genes for Brain Disorders
Using targeted gene sequencing in a large cohort population, researchers have discovered genes associated with higher risk of neurodevelopmental-disorders (NDDs), with some of those genes showing statistical biases for autism. The study provides new information about similarities and differences underlying various NDDs. More...09 Mar 2017
Study Identifies Gene Variants Linked to AD in African Americans
In what may have been the first comprehensive screening of rare coding variants in an African American population, researchers identified several rare gene variants linked to the development of early onset Alzheimer's disease (AD). More...08 Mar 2017
Novel Biomarkers Found for Bowel Cancer Treatment
Bowel cancer is the third most common form of cancer in the world and 95% of cases are colorectal carcinomas and at an advanced stage they are one of the most common causes of death, as only some patients respond to drug treatment. More...03 Mar 2017
Genetic Test Predicts Success of Bone-Marrow Transplant
Genetic mutations drive the pathogenesis of the myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) and are closely associated with clinical phenotype and therefore, genetic mutations may predict clinical outcomes after allogeneic hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation. More...02 Mar 2017
Researchers Find Additional Genes Responsible for Foul Odor Disorder
A study using whole exome sequencing of patients with trimethylaminura (TMAU) may to lead to additional diagnostic criteria and therapeutic targets for this rare metabolic disorder, which until now has been generally attributed solely to mutations in the FMO3 gene. More...28 Feb 2017
Genetic Defect Identified as Cause of Multiple Organ Disease
A novel gene called sphingosine-1-phosphate lyase (SGPL1) has been identified which causes multi organ disease particularly affecting the kidneys and adrenal glands and this may represent a novel lipid storage disorder similar to Niemann-Pick and Fabry disease, which are multi-systemic and progressive, often with neurological involvement.
