International team identifies 21 new genetic risk factors for Crohn's disease
eurekalert.org — “An international consortium of Crohn's disease researchers has combined data from three independent studies to identify 21 new genetic variants associated with the inflammatory bowel disorder, bringing the total number of risk factors to 32. Several of these are involved with the immune system's inital response to pathogens, supporting earlier evidence that disruptions in a process called autophagy may lead to the disorder's characteristic immune system overactivity.” View full resource at eurekalert.org

Genetic Marker Of Aggressive Alzheimer's Disease Identified By Researchers - QualityPoint Technologies
qualitypointtech.net — “An international team of Alzheimer's disease experts, led by Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, has uncovered a gene variation that appears to predict the rate at which Alzheimer's disease will progress. The investigators report their findings online in the journal Public Library of Science (PLoS) Genetics. Whereas previous studies have focused on factors that influence the risk for Alzheimer's, the new research points to a way to determine how rapidly Alzheimer's patients ma” View full resource at qualitypointtech.net
