Molecular Changes Associated with Treating Lymphatic Filariasis
Lymphatic filariasis (LF) is a disabling neglected tropical disease that is caused by the mosquito-borne filarial parasites Wuchereria bancrofti, Brugia malayi and B. timori. Adult worms live in the human host’s lymphatic system and release larval parasites (microfilariae or Mf) that circulate in the blood. More...09 Oct 2019
Some High-Cholesterol Genes Differ Between Countries
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been very successful in identifying genetic variants linked to cardiovascular disease (CVD) and to cardiometabolic traits. Due to the improving predictive accuracy of these variants, genetic risk prediction could soon be implemented in clinical settings. More...09 Oct 2019
