Y chromosome may be the link that passes heart disease risk from father to son
news-medical.net — “The study, published in The Lancet, focused on genetic markers on the Y chromosome — which is present only in male DNA (women have two X chromosomes) — and found that men with a certain genetic variant were 50% more likely to have coronary artery disease than those without it. The increased risk was independent of other contributors to heart disease such as age, weight, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and smoking.” View full resource at news-medical.net

23andMe discovers genetic variant that may protect those at risk for Parkinson's disease
eurekalert.org — “23andMe Inc. has announced the first-time discovery of the potentially protective nature of the gene serum/glucocorticoid regulated kinase 1 (SGK1) which appears to be protective against a high-risk leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) mutation for Parkinson's disease. In a program funded by a $500,000 grant from The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson's Research, The Scripps Research Institute is investigating SGK1 and LRRK2, seeking to identify a new and potentially vital therapeutic targe” View full resource at eurekalert.org

Better ways to predict kidney disease risk for African Americans: Gene testing could help identify patients who need early treatment
sciencedaily.com — “African Americans with certain gene variants develop non-diabetic kidney disease more often than expected. African Americans with these variants risk developing focal segmental glomerulosclerosis and HIV nephropathy in particular and may need dialysis at a young age. Screening for these variants could identify individuals who should receive kidney-protective treatments” View full resource at sciencedaily.com

Faulty Heart Disease Gene Modified By Eating Fruit And Raw Vegetables - QualityPoint Technologies
qualitypointtech.net — “A genetic variant which significantly raises the risk of heart disease can be modified by eating plenty of fruit and raw vegetables so that the carrier's risk of heart disease is brought down to the same level as those without the faulty gene, researchers from McMaster and McGill universities, Canada, reported in the journal PLoS Medicine. The long-held belief that you cannot change the genes you inherited from your parents does not appear to hold true, the authors explained...” View full resource at qualitypointtech.net

Landmark international study confirms common genetic contribution to mental illness
news-medical.net — “An international research consortium has confirmed that common genetic variants contribute to a person’s risk of schizophrenia and bipolar disorder. The largest study of its kind provides new molecular evidence that 11 regions have strong association with these diseases, including six regions not previously observed. The researchers also found that many of these DNA variations contribute to both diseases. The findings, reported by the Psychiatric Genome-Wide Association Study Consortium (PGC) an” View full resource at news-medical.net

Genetic variants in novel pathways influence blood pressure and cardiovascular disease risk : Nature : Nature Publishing Group
nature.com — “Blood pressure is a heritable trait influenced by several biological pathways and responsive to environmental stimuli. Over one billion people worldwide have hypertension ([ge]140[thinsp]mm[thinsp]Hg systolic blood pressure or[thinsp][ge]90[thinsp]mm[thinsp]Hg diastolic blood pressure). Even small increments in blood pressure are associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events. This genome-wide association study of systolic and diastolic blood pressure, which used a multi-stage design” View full resource at nature.com
