Epigenetic inheritance and the missing heritability problem.
Epigenetic phenomena, and in particular heritable epigenetic changes, or transgenerational effects, are the subject of much discussion in the current literature. This article presents a model of transgenerational epigenetic inheritance and explores the effect of epigenetic inheritance on the risk and recurrence risk of a complex disease. The model assumes that epigenetic modifications of the ge...
متن کاملCo-inheritance of mutations associated with arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) are genetically and phenotypically distinct disorders of the myocardium. Here we describe for the first time co-inheritance of mutations in genes associated with ACM or HCM in two families with recurrence of both cardiomyopathies. Among the double heterozygotes for mutations in desmoplakin (DSP) and myosin binding protein...
متن کاملThe Missing “Missing Middle”
T he notion that the distribution of firm size in poor countries is characterized by a bimodal distribution with a “missing middle” is a widely accepted fact in development economics (for example, see Krueger 2013). The idea of the missing middle is that there are a large number of small firms, some large firms, but very few medium-sized firms. The purported fact about the missing middle is cit...
متن کاملMissing data imputation in multivariable time series data
Multivariate time series data are found in a variety of fields such as bioinformatics, biology, genetics, astronomy, geography and finance. Many time series datasets contain missing data. Multivariate time series missing data imputation is a challenging topic and needs to be carefully considered before learning or predicting time series. Frequent researches have been done on the use of diffe...
متن کاملHIF‐2: The Missing Link Between Obesity and Cardiomyopathy
Introduction to HIF Pathway T he evolutionarily conserved hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) pathway is present ubiquitously in mammalian cells and plays a critical role in the regulation of energy metabolism, especially glucose utilization. HIF is a transcription factor consisting of an O2-sensitive HIF-a (HIF-1a or HIF-2a) and the O2-insensitive HIF-1b subunit. 2 Under most physiologically normox...
