Avian Lifespan Network Reveals Shared Mechanisms and New Key Players in Animal Longevity
In this work, we found that birds with similar lifespans exhibit convergent evolution in specific genes, suggesting that shared evolutionary pressures shape the genetic basis of lifespan similarity across species. By investigating protein–protein interactions across genes evolving convergently in long‐ and short‐lived species, we identified a network ...

A historical perspective on Lionel Penrose: Scientist, geneticist and dedicated opponent of eugenics
Abstract The paper explores Lionel Penrose's scientific work. Penrose investigated the causes of mental disorders from clinical and genetic points of view. His investigations on phenylketonuria and Down syndrome helped to demonstrate the heterogenous character of mental disorders, whose causes can range from genetic with high penetrance, to largely ...

Genetic Determinants of the Familial Hypercholesterolaemia Phenotype
ABSTRACT Individuals with familial hypercholesterolaemia (FH) have severely elevated plasma concentrations of low‐density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL‐C) from birth and as a consequence have an elevated morbidity and mortality due to the development of coronary heart disease (CHD).
