Bone mass of a 113-year-old man.
Osteoporosis is a common disease that affects elderly people. Aging induces loss of bone density and quality resulting in a progressive incidence of fragility fractures. In this study, we report the bone density of one of the oldest men in the world and of several of his first-degree relatives, as well as a genetic screen of these cases. No fractures have been suffered by any of them, and their...
متن کاملSignatures of Natural Selection at the FTO (Fat Mass and Obesity Associated) Locus in Human Populations
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Polymorphisms in the first intron of FTO have been robustly replicated for associations with obesity. In the Sorbs, a Slavic population resident in Germany, the strongest effect on body mass index (BMI) was found for a variant in the third intron of FTO (rs17818902). Since this may indicate population specific effects of FTO variants, we initiated studies testing FTO for sig...
متن کاملImpact of nonrandom mating on genetic variance and gene flow in populations with mass selection.
The mechanisms by which nonrandom mating affects selected populations are not completely understood and remain a subject of scientific debate in the development of tractable predictors of population characteristics. The main objective of this study was to provide a predictive model for the genetic variance and covariance among mates for traits subjected to directional selection in populations w...

Having designed the control system, the next stage was to test whether these motion camouflage controllers would be able to fool humans! We did this by performing a novel psychophysical experiment that masqueraded as a computer game competition. The competition was based on a 3D computer game (Missile Defence) of the popular first-person shoot-em-up genre: purpose-written to allow comparison of...
متن کاملStabilizing selection, purifying selection, and mutational bias in finite populations.
Genomic traits such as codon usage and the lengths of noncoding sequences may be subject to stabilizing selection rather than purifying selection. Mutations affecting these traits are often biased in one direction. To investigate the potential role of stabilizing selection on genomic traits, the effects of mutational bias on the equilibrium value of a trait under stabilizing selection in a fini...
