Extreme trait values may trace to rare genes with outsized effects, analysis suggests
Researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai have found evidence that people who fall at the extreme high or low ends of certain traits, such as cholesterol, blood glucose, height, and age at menopause, are more likely to have a simple ge…

Schwann cells may trigger NF1 pain before tumors appear, mouse study suggests
Researchers at Cincinnati Children’s have identified a potential new way to relieve chronic pain linked to neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), a genetic condition best known for causing tumors to grow along nerves. The new findings suggest that pain in NF1…

AI model links tumor mutations to treatment response
Researchers at University of California San Diego have developed a new artificial intelligence (AI) model that can translate a tumor’s complex genetic profile into predictions about how that cancer may respond to treatment. The model, called MutationPr…

New genetic map of the human eye reveals clues to vision loss
An international team led by University of Manchester scientists has created the most detailed picture yet of how genetic differences shape the way the human eye works. The breakthrough could help explain why millions of people develop sight-threatenin…

When bariatric surgery may lower cancer risk: Insulin, sex and genes offer new clues
Substantial and sustained weight loss has been linked to a reduced risk of cancer and cancer-related death, mainly in women. Two new studies now provide clues to why the risk is reduced—and suggest that gender, metabolism and genetics may play a crucia…
