Sentences with phrase «if key genes»

Not exact matches

A new technique can determine if a chemical has the potential to activate key genes in seconds rather than the typical 24 hours or more.

To find out if such a gene - environment interaction is involved, they first identified a likely candidate gene, FADS2, which codes for an enzyme known to play a key role in fatty acid production.

If we knew the key genes that embryos need to develop successfully, we could improve IVF treatments and understand some causes of pregnancy failure.

Researchers from North Carolina State University have developed a high - throughput technique that can determine if a chemical has the potential to activate key genes in seconds rather than the typical 24 hours or more.

Key proteins involved in gene expression depend on each other when forming a heart in an embryo, but, if left alone, they start to run amok

However, another strain of E. coli has several key gene changes that can cause severe food poisoning if it enters the gut.

In terms of helping physicians diagnose whether a prostate cancer is likely to metastasize, this research suggests that if a patient's tumor lacks the key tumor suppressing genes then a potential preventative treatment could be diet, or a future fat - blocking drug.

However, if the purpose of such a scan is to identify candidate genes, then — as with single - gene studies — more detailed follow - up and functional validation of at least some of the key genes of interest are necessary to shore up the evidence.

To understand the selection mechanism behind mutations, network - based studies were used to estimate the importance of a mutated protein compared to non-mutated ones in signalling and protein — protein interaction networks.10, 11,12,13 Proteins mutated in cancer were found having a high number of interacting partners (i.e., a high degree of connectivity), which indicates high local importance.10 Mutated proteins are also often found in the centre of the network, in key global positions, as quantified by the number of shortest paths passing through them if all proteins are connected with each other (i.e., they have high betweenness centrality; hereafter called betweenness).11, 12 Mutated proteins also have high clustering coefficients, which means their neighbours are also neighbours of each other.10, 13 Moreover, neighbourhood analysis of mutated proteins have been previously successfully used to predict novel cancer - related genes.14, 15 However, to the best of our knowledge, no study has concentrated particularly on the topological importance of first neighbours of mutated proteins in cancer, and their usefulness as drug targets themselves.

And for a vegan bodybuilder who must unfortunatelly play tetris with the food sources that he choses in order to give to his body the right ammounts of aminos, restricting SPI and soy foods so much does not make his goal any easier.There are sometimes that you need a meal thats complete with aminos and soy provides that meal with the additional benefits of lacking the saturated fats trans cholesterol and other endothelium inflammatory factors.I'm not saying that someone should go all the way to 200gr of SPI everyday or consuming a kilo of soy everyday but some servings of soy now and then even every day or the use of SPI which helps in positive nitrogen balance does not put you in the cancer risk team, thats just OVERexaggeration.Exercise, exposure to sunlight, vegan diet or for those who can not something as close to vegan diet, fruits and vegetables which contains lots of antioxidants and phtochemicals, NO STRESS which is the global killer, healthy social relationships, keeping your cortisol and adrenaline levels down (except the necessary times), good sleep and melatonin function, clean air, no radiation, away from procceced foods and additives like msg etc and many more that i can not even remember is the key to longevity.As long as your immune system is functioning well and your natural killer cells TP53 gene and many other cancer inhibitors are good and well, no cancer will ever show his face to you.With that logic we shouldn't eat ANY ammount of protein and we should go straight to be breatharians living only with little water and sunlight exposure cause you like it or not the raise of IGF1 is inevitable i know that raise the IGF1 sky high MAYBE is not the best thing but we are not talking about external hormones and things like this.Stabby raccoon also has a point.And even if you still worry about the consumption of soy... http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21711174.

Family genetics will be key here: if you and your spouse have good genes and see 100 as a possible future birthday, you may want to pursue your creative goals in a «victory lap»: perhaps indulging a love of painting, composing or writing, or volunteering with one or more charities or travelling the world as a «voluntourist.»
