Polygenic Risk Scores Accurately Predict Risk of Coronary Artery Disease

Polygenic risk scores (PRS) based on an individual's genome sequence are emerging as potentially powerful biomarkers to predict the risk to develop coronary artery disease (CAD). More...

Stress-Induced tRNA Fragments Prove Early Predictors of Epileptic Seizures

 Elevated levels of stress-induced fragments of transfer RNA in the blood may serve as biomarkers that indicate potential for an epileptic seizure hours before the event actually occurs. More...

cfDNA Testing Accurately Detects Fetal Trisomies in Twin Pregnancies

 Results presented in a recently published paper indicated that the performance of cfDNA (cell-free DNA) testing for trisomy 21 (Down syndrome) in twin pregnancy was similar to that reported in singleton pregnancy and was superior to that of the first‐trimester combined test or second‐trimester biochemical testing.

Disease-Related Epigenetic Variations Summarized in New DNA Methylation Atlas

A new DNA methylation atlas summarized a previously unexplored molecular level of human individuality called correlated regions of systemic interindividual variation (CoRSIVs), which may provide a resource for future population-based investigations into how interindividual epigenetic variation modulates risk of disease. More...

Machine Learning Approach Detects Cancer by Analyzing DNA in Blood Samples

Researchers have described a proof-of-principle approach for the screening, early detection, and monitoring of human cancer based on a machine learning approach that evaluates fragmentation patterns of cell-free DNA across the genome. More...

Laboratory Model Reveals Genetic Risk Loci for AMD

Eye disease researchers used advanced stem cell technology to create a laboratory model of age-related macular degeneration (AMD), which enabled in-depth analysis of the genetics underlying the syndrome. More...

Gene Set Isolated in Transformation of Skin Cells into Embryonic Tissues

A team of developmental biologists identified a set of five genes that is capable of transforming skin cells into pluripotent stem cells and then into all three of the cell types that comprise the early embryo: the embryo itself, the placenta, and the extra-embryonic tissues, such as the umbilical cord. More...
