investigated polymorphisms of the 5-HT transporter-linked promoter region (5-HTTLPR) gene. This gene has a short (S) allele and a long (L) allele; men with the LL genotype are likely to have ...

Purpose. The effects of genetic polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetics of calcineurin inhibitors were examined. Pharmacogenetics examines the relationship between single-gene polymorphisms and the ...

A research team has recently constructed a global polymorphism genetic map of variable number tandem repeats (VNTRs), termed ...

Genetic markers may help predict response to TNF inhibitor therapy in rheumatoid arthritis, potentially leading to more ...

Precisely how lowered levels of the gene product, an enzyme called hexoseaminidase A, protect against TB isn't known. Balanced polymorphism may explain why cystic fibrosis is so common- the ...

This study explores the genetics of human reproductive traits, revealing links to aging, health outcomes, and longevity while ...

The influence of probiotics on immune function has gained attention due to their role in modulating the gut microbiota, which interacts closely with the immune system. Emerging research reveals that ...

Genetic testing was conducted upon joining professional teams, examining players’ histories of ACL and MCL injuries, as well as subsequent injuries. Salivary DNA was collected using a DNA Genotek kit ...

PITX2 expression and Neanderthal-introgressed HS3ST3A1—that contribute to variations in tooth size among modern human ...
