Reportlinker.com announces that a new market research report is available in its catalogue:
While infections and other medical complications are generally blamed for premature birth, a new study finds certain gene variants are responsible for the condition.
Researchers have generated a complete map of the areas of the genome that control which genes are "turned on" or "off." The discovery, made in pancreatic islet cells, opens new avenues for understanding the genetic basis of type 2 diabetes and other common illnesses.
Together with colleagues in Barcelona, researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill have generated a complete map of the areas of the genome that control which genes are "turned on" or "off." The discovery, made in pancreatic islet cells, opens new avenues for understanding the genetic basis of type 2 diabetes and other common illnesses. "Most of the human genome is uncharted ...

To the Editor: A single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) association study 1 assessing variants associated with deep vein thrombosis found that, of 19 682 gene-centric SNPs, 18 were consistently associated with deep vein thrombosis in the Leiden Thrombophilia Study (LETS) and in a subset of the Multiple Environmental and Genetic Assessment of Risk Factors for Venous Thrombosis (MEGA-1).
The research, published online Jan. 31, 2010, in the journal Nature Genetics, presents the first high-resolution atlas of these regulatory elements in the most studied cell type for treatment and prevention of type II diabetes.
