Within this large-scale study, published in Nature Communications, scientists examined genetic data linked to type 2 diabetes and blood pressure regulation. Both conditions frequently occur in the ...

Type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure share a genetic link, new research from the University of Surrey, UK and the ...

Type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure share a genetic link, according to new research from the University of Surrey, U.K., ...

Most cancers are not driven by a single gene mutation, but rather an accumulation of mutations that develop over the evolution of tumor growth. While mouse models are useful for identifying cancer ...

A new study links telomere length genetics to IPF risk, showing how rare variants and polygenic scores may guide future screening and precision care.

Hypermobile Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (hEDS) is one of the most common heritable connective tissue disorders. Early estimates have reported that this genetic disorder affects at least one in 5,000 ...

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is a public health challenge that affects more than 800 million people worldwide. 1 CKD can be caused by a variety of disease processes. Many causes are difficult to ...

Polygenic indices related to the best-established social, psychological, and behavioural mortality risk phenotypes had the strongest associations with mortality.

Researchers have developed a light-induced DNA detection method that enables rapid, PCR-free genetic analysis. Their technique offers ultra-sensitive mutation detection in just five minutes, reducing ...
