Researchers discover new genes for IBD in Children

Singapore, Sept 2, 2008: Researchers have discovered two new genes that increase the risk of developing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) in childhood. While further study is needed to identify the specific disease-causing mutations in these new genes, the researchers say the genes are particularly strong candidates to be added to the list of genes already known to affect IBD.

Genome-based Personalized Medicine

James Watson and Craig Venter might both be Caucasian men, but according to their genes, Watson would metabolize drugs differently than Venter, writes a group led by Venter in Clinical Pharmacology and Therapeutics. The group analyzed six drug-metabolizing genes, including the CYP genes, and found that Venter is an extensive metabolizer and Watson is an intermediate metabolizer with an allele that is rare in Caucasians. "Race-based medicine doesn't have any real basis in science," says Venter in the New Scientist.

9-Scientists Discover the Monogamy Gene .....

Each cell in the human body contains about 25,000 to 35,000 genes, which carry information that determines our traits; straight or curly hair, short or long legs, and even how we smile or laugh. Each gene has a special job to do, but what happens when genes don’t work right or have changed in some way? Researchers think that altered or mutated genes may be partly to blame for lung problems, cancer and many other illnesses. And now, scientists believe a certain gene variant may be linked to marital monogamy.

Scientists identify new genes that could lead to gout

Two new genes have been identified and the involvement of a third is confirmed in increasing the risk of higher levels of uric acid in the blood, which can lead to gout, a common, painful form of arthritis, according to a new study.

More Genes Are Controlled By Biological Clocks Than Previously Thought

Researchers at the University of Georgia report that the number of genes under control of the biological clock in a much-studied model organism is dramatically higher than previously reported. The new study implies that the clock may be much more important in living things than suspected only a few years ago.
