Gorilla susceptibility to Ebola virus: the cost of sociality

By monitoring a large population of gorillas during an Ebola outbreak in the rain forest of the Republic of the Congo, researchers have found that in a few months the virus exhibited dramatic--but disproportionate--impacts on group-dwelling and solitary gorillas. The findings offer a unique glimpse into the factors affecting the threat the deadly virus poses to great apes. The work is rep...

Researchers Discover Gene That Determines Asthma Susceptibility By Regulating Inflammation

Disruption of a single gene, Nrf2, plays a critical role in determining the susceptibility to asthma. A research team led by Shyam Biswal, PhD, at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health found the absence of Nrf2 exacerbated allergen-mediated asthma in mice models. The study’s findings, published in the July 4, 2005, edition of the Journal of Experimental Medicine, may hold therapeuti...

U-M scientists identify major psoriasis susceptibility gene

University of Michigan scientists have found a common genetic variation in an immune system gene that makes people much more likely to develop psoriasis ?a disfiguring inflammatory skin disease. Named PSORS1 (SORE-ESS-1), for psoriasis susceptibility 1, the gene is the first genetic determinant of psoriasis to be definitively identified in a large clinical study. Its discovery could lead t...

Study identifies new role for breast cancer susceptibility gene

A recently discovered facet of the breast cancer susceptibility gene BRCA1 reveals a mechanism linking mutation of BRCA1 to formation of large blood vessels needed to support cancer progression. The findings demonstrate that, in addition to an impaired DNA damage response associated with cancer initiation, mutation of BRCA1 is also linked to manipulation of the tumor microenvironment. The researc...

Susceptibility to Crohn's disease -- an important new clue

Crohn’s disease is a chronic relapsing inflammatory disorder of the intestinal tract that affects an estimated 0.15% of people in the developed world. Common symptoms include abdominal pain and diarrhea, but the disorder is often associated with debilitating clinical complications. Researchers from the University of Liège, Belgium, have now uncovered an important clue to the susceptibility of ind...

Popularity Among Peers Increases Susceptibility To Smoking Habit Among School Children

Dealing with adolescence and teenage has always remained a problem for parents because of the vulnerability to habit formation, the curiosity to experiment and susceptibility to get easily influenced by peers // . A new study throws light on the fact that teenagers who enjoy popularity are more likely to smoke than less popular classmates. The study has been conducted among popular st...

Researchers finding link between malaria susceptibility and genetic makeup

Researchers are finding out the various factors which are responsible for malaria infection and their susceptibility and the degree of infection and their link to difference in genetic makeup between different individuals//. Rather than focusing on specific genes, Mackinnon and colleagues were interested in the relative contributions of host genetics and other factors to the risk of mal...

Smoking Related Scenes in Movies Increase Teenage Susceptibility To Smoke

A review report submitted recently regarding the impact of media and mass communication on smoking has found that teenagers are vulnerable to smoke after visualization of smoking related scenes on movies// or televisions. It is also in favor of exclusion of smoking related scenes from movies rated for adolescent audience. It is appropriate to remember at this stage that most smokers would have in...

A Sneak Preview of Human’s Susceptibility to Auto Immune Disease, Allergy, Asthm

A new study unveils the possible link between widely used childhood medicines and the risk of developing allergies and especially asthma//. It says that to head off allergies, expose the kids to pets and dirt early. The new approach to allergy prevention and treatment arises from what is known as the hygiene hypothesis. It suggests that growing up in cities and suburbs, away from field...

Gene Defects Determine Susceptibility to Cancer and Bone Marrow Failure

A new study has now highlighted that certain gene defects that control of protein synthesis can either increase or decrease an individual's susceptibility to cancer and other diseases. //Surprisingly, such genetic mechanisms can be responsible for cancer although the protein levels are normal, reveals the study that has been published in the journal, Science. Directed by molecular biolo...
