Genetic Heterogeneity in Algerian Human Populations
The demographic history of human populations in North Africa has been characterized by complex processes of admixture and isolation that have modeled its current gene pool. Diverse genetic ancestral components with different origins (autochthonous, European, Middle Eastern, and sub-Saharan) and genetic heterogeneity in the region have been described. In this complex genetic landscape, Algeria, ...
متن کاملHETEROGENEITY OF MACROPHAGE POPULATIONS: ANTIBODIES DETECTING VARIOUS POPULATIONS OF MACROPHAGES
Two groups of antibodies against mouse resident alveolar and peritoneal macrophages have been raised individually in rabbits by immunization with whole cell suspensions of lavaged alveolar and peritoneal macrophages. The whole antisera reacted positively with neutrophils and lymphocytes. However, upon extensive absorptions with these cells the activity became restricted to macrophages. The...
متن کاملGenetic heterogeneity in euphausiid populations: Euphausia krohnii
Genetic heterogeneity of samples of Euphausia krohnii and Nematoscelis megalops collected from a 6,000-km* area in western North Atlantic Slope Water was investigated by electrophoretic assay of allozymic variability at eight enzyme loci. Both species exhibited significant among-sample heterogeneity of allozyme frequencies. Genetic distances between samples were large for intraspecific comparis...
متن کاملGenetic Heterogeneity in Human Disease
Strong evidence suggests that rare mutations of severe effect are responsible for a substantial portion of complex human disease. Evolutionary forces generate vast genetic heterogeneity in human illness by introducing many new variants in each generation. Current sequencing technologies offer the possibility of finding rare disease-causing mutations and the genes that harbor them.
متن کاملConfounding and heterogeneity in genetic association studies with admixed populations.
Association studies among admixed populations pose many challenges including confounding of genetic effects due to population substructure and heterogeneity due to different patterns of linkage disequilibrium (LD). We use simulations to investigate controlling for confounding by indicators of global ancestry and the impact of including a covariate for local ancestry. In addition, we investigate...
