Distilling Pathophysiology from Complex Disease Genetics
Technologies for genome-wide sequence interrogation have dramatically improved our ability to identify loci associated with complex human disease. However, a chasm remains between correlations and causality that stems, in part, from a limiting theoretical framework derived from Mendelian genetics and an incomplete understanding of disease physiology. Here we propose a set of criteria, akin to K...
متن کاملGenetics of liver disease: From pathophysiology to clinical practice.
Paralleling the first 30 years of the Journal of Hepatology we have witnessed huge advances in our understanding of liver disease and physiology. Genetic advances have played no small part in that. Initial studies in the 1970s and 1980s identified the strong major histocompatibility complex associations in autoimmune liver diseases. During the 1990 s, developments in genomic technologies drove ...
متن کاملDistilling Entanglement from Fermions
Since Fermions are based on anti-commutation relations, their entanglement can not be studied in the usual way, such that the available theory has to be modified appropriately. Recent publications consider in particular the structure of separable and of maximally entangled states. In this talk we want to discuss local operations and entanglement distillation from bipartite, Fermionic systems. T...
متن کاملPathophysiology and genetics of obesity.
Obesity, a global problem, is a multifactorial disorder. The factors are environmental, metabolic and genetic and their interaction with each other regulates the body weight. Imbalance in either of the factors may be responsible for weight gain. With advancement of research techniques in the last decade, genetic studies have been undertaken for several different causative mutations involving ob...
متن کاملEpidemiologic considerations in complex disease genetics.
Association studies are becoming an increasingly popular study design not only for testing of candidate genes, but also for genome-wide localization of loci influencing complex disease. This article covers some of the practical concerns in conducting large-scale association studies using epidemiologic samples.
