An international collaboration of genetic researchers has identified more than 90 genetic regions associated with the risk of ...

NT-proBNP is one of the most widely used tested biomarkers in medicine. Doctors rely on it to diagnose and monitor heart ...

A new study, published in Nature Genetics, created the largest genetic map of human metabolism, revealing new insights into the role of metabolites in health and disease and creating a blueprint for ...

The contribution of genetics to the variability in people’s metabolism has remained largely unknown. This is, in part, because genetic studies of human metabolism have been limited in scale and ...

Research co-led by King's College London and Sidra Medicine, Qatar, has produced the most detailed map to date of large-scale genetic differences in the Qatari population, providing a clearer picture ...

Scientists have created the most detailed cell map to date showing how genetic variation influences inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), revealing the specific cells and genes that drive the disease.

Despite rapid advances in reading the genetic code of living organisms, scientists still face a major challenge today—knowing a gene's sequence does not automatically reveal what it does. Even in ...

When someone is diagnosed with depression and anxiety, it rarely surprises their clinician. When someone with schizophrenia has mood symptoms, it rarely surprises their family. Comorbidity has always ...
