Advances in molecular and recombinant DNA technology have led to exquisite studies in the field of genetics and the recognition in a much more specific way, through DNA sequencing, of how unique each one of us is, and the extent to which genetic variation occurs. The importance of the effects of genetic variation has been extensively studied and applied by pharmacologists in drug development an...

„Lekar u budućnosti više neće tretirati bolesti lekovima, već će lečiti i prevenirati bolest ishranom” (Tomas Edison). Ishrana igra izuzetno značajnu ulogu u očuvanju zdravlja i poboljšanju kvaliteta života. Nakon dekodiranja ljudskog genoma u sklopu „Humane Genome Project” 2003. godine, došlo se na ideju da se strategija ishrane može obogatiti podacima o tome koji nutrijenti odgovaraju specifi...

Nutrigenomics represents a suitable approach to cardiovascular medicine, potentially enabling both, better prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases (CVD) through optimization of individuals’ dietary intakes. However, nutrigenomics is still developing its research methodology and learning from its achievements and its shortcomings. Its foundations have been laid, allowing us to valida...

The ongoing rapid climate change, combined with the disturbance of fish breeding grounds, may impact reproduction by endangering successful and survival, thus affect viable sustainability in aquaculture systems as well sea. In this study we focus on biocomplexity response to change. Further, propose adaptive strategies, including technological advancements, using a noninvasive non-lethal approa...
