Living to 100 and beyond: the right genes plus a healthy lifestyle - Harvard Health Publications
health.harvard.edu — “A new study from the ongoing New England Centenarian Study suggests that protective genes may make a big contribution to helping people live to age 100 and beyond. Researchers analyzed and deciphered the entire genetic codes of a man and a woman who lived past the age of 114. The two so-called supercentenarians had about as many disease-promoting genes as individuals who did not live as long. But they also had about 50 possible longevity-associated gene variants, some of which were unexpected an” View full resource at health.harvard.edu

Raw fruits and veggies may offset genetic risk for heart disease: Study
news-medical.net — “In a new study a team of researchers looked at the genotypes of 27,243 people from two separate studies to see if they had a certain gene variant. Earlier studies including a 2010 meta-analysis in the Journal of the American Medical Assn. found that the 9p21 gene is associated with a higher risk of heart attack and cardiovascular disease.” 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

Genome-wide hunts reveal new regulators of blood pressure
eurekalert.org — “A study involving more than 200,000 people worldwide has identified 29 DNA sequence variations in locations across the human genome that influence blood pressure. These genes, whose sequence changes are associated with alterations in blood pressure and are linked to heart disease and stroke, were found with the help of decades' worth of population data that were pooled and analyzed by a large international consortium, including Johns Hopkins researchers.” View full resource at eurekalert.org

Common gene variant associated with aortic dissection: Study reveals risk factor that doubles chance of developing silent killer
sciencedaily.com — “Richard Holbrooke, John Ritter, Lucille Ball, Jonathan Larson and Great Britain's King George II were all taken by the same silent killer: an acute aortic dissection. Now, scientists have found an association with a common genetic variant in the population that predisposes people to acute dissections and can approximately double a person's chances of having the disease.” View full resource at sciencedaily.com
