Sentences with phrase «between allelic»

Taken together, our findings suggest culture — gene coevolution between allelic frequency of 5 - HTTLPR and cultural values of individualism — collectivism and support the notion that cultural values buffer genetically susceptible populations from increased prevalence of affective disorders.

To further determine the specificity of the mediating role of collectivistic cultural values on the association between allelic frequency of the 5 - HTTLPR and mental health disorders, we also conducted regression of mediation on 5 - HTTLPR, individualism — collectivism and two mental health disorders included in the 2008 WHO Mental Health Survey, but not previously associated with the 5 - HTTLPR, namely substance abuse and impulse control.

Not exact matches

This hypothesis is supported by the allelic associations between a SNP in the human IL15RA gene and endurance athlete status.

When the average allelic effect does not capture a specific allelic effect under certain conditions, whether due to genetic background or environmental effects, current methods will not detect the link between genotype and phenotype.

By contrast, the insecticide - resistance markers display heterogeneous allelic distributions with significant differences detected between Central Ugandan (urban) populations relative to Eastern and Southwestern (rural) populations.

Given that ovulatory dysfunction is a key feature of PCOS, one group investigated a cohort of PCOS patients to determine if there was an association with this polymorphism.68 They reported significant differences in the genotype distribution and allelic frequencies between controls and PCOS patients that supported a correlation with the G / A polymorphism.68 To date, the underlying mechanism has not been established.

Statistically significant allelic differentiation was found between older (1927 and 1941) and newer (2000) Santa Rosa samples (χ216 = 58.0, P < 0.001); however, the magnitude of differentiation was small (FST = 0.029, 95 % CI = 0.01 — 0.05).

Here, we examined the association between cultural values of individualism — collectivism and allelic frequency of the serotonin transporter functional polymorphism (5 - HTTLPR) as well as the role this culture — gene association may play in explaining global variability in prevalence of pathogens and affective disorders.

During the anticipation phase (the time between presentation of cues and potential reward receipt), the contrast of interest was the effect of allelic group on differences in brain activation for incentive versus non-incentive trials.
