If your genes make you a "night owl," the odds are higher you'll develop depression. Can we do anything to change that? Also, why is the EU planning to store our vaccination information inside a QR code, of all places? And, finally, a big shout-out to the listener who won our bird quiz! ....
University of California researchers identify genes that protect plants from drying out, and US Trade Representative Katherine Tai challenges Canada s dairy tariff-rate quotas under USMCA. ....
Scientists discover new feature that distinguishes modern humans from ancient Neanderthals Led by Professor Philipp Khaitovich, this new feature distinguishing modern humans from Neanderthals has been discovered by Skolteck scientists Ghost Population A new feature that distinguishes modern humans from Neanderthals has been discovered by Skolteck scientists after examining the metabolism of humans, chimpanzees, and macaques in the muscle, kidney, and three separate brain areas. Researchers from the Skoltech Center for Neurobiology and Brain Restoration (CNBR) led by Professor Philipp Khaitovich and their colleagues from the Max Planck Institutes in Leipzig, Dresden and Cologne and the University of Denver studied metabolic differences in the brain, kidney and muscle of humans, chimpanzees, and macaques. ....
Scientists use anti-psychotics to treat flies displaying behavioral problems linked to schizophrenia-associated genes Scientists have successfully treated flies displaying behavioral problems linked to newly discovered schizophrenia-associated genes in humans, using common anti-psychotics. Schizophrenia is a severe long-term mental health condition that is historically poorly understood and treated. It is relatively common, affecting one to two per cent of the population, and is known to be up to 80 per cent genetic in origin. Recent advances in sequencing genomes of people with schizophrenia have identified a list of novel genes and mutations associated with the disease. Many are expressed in the brain and are involved in how neurons communicate with each other by electrical and chemical signals released at synapses. ....
Scientists find genes leading to high risk of COVID-19 infection Having genetic risk variants in the ABO gene might significantly increase the chances of developing Covid-19. Scientists find genes leading to high risk of COVID-19 Share Updated: May 17, 2021, 07:38 PM IST Scientists have decoded genes that increase the chances of contracting COVID-19. According to the IANS report, scientists have found genes that put certain people at high chances of contracting the virus and developing severe COVID-19. According to the research, having genetic risk variants in the ABO gene could have chances of causing COVID-19. DNA is considered a big, complex molecule, it is difficult to pinpoint the exact gene which can develop COVID-19. The team found that people carrying certain genetic variants for SLC6A20, ERMP1, FCER1G, and CA11 have a significantly higher risk of contracting COVID-19 ....
