Gene-environment interaction: A genetic-epidemiological approach [PDF]
Journal of Medical Biochemistry, 2010 Classical epidemiology addresses the distribution and determinants of diseases in populations, and the factors associated with disease causation, with the aim of preventing disease. Both genetic and environmental factors may contribute to susceptibility,

Stacking-induced fluorescence increase reveals allosteric interactions through DNA [PDF]
, 2018 From gene expression to nanotechnology, understanding and controlling DNA requires a detailed knowledge of its higher order structure and dynamics. Here we take advantage of the environment-sensitive photoisomerization of cyanine dyes to probe local and ...

Gene-Environment Dependence Creates Spurious Gene-Environment Interaction [PDF]
The American Journal of Human Genetics, 2014 Gene-environment interactions have the potential to shed light on biological processes leading to disease and to improve the accuracy of epidemiological risk models. However, relatively few such interactions have yet been confirmed. In part this is because genetic markers such as tag SNPs are usually studied, rather than the causal variants themselves.

The Role of Genes in Defining a Molecular Biology of PTSD [PDF]
, 2014 Because environmental exposure to trauma is the sine qua non for the development of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), the recent focus on genetic studies has been noteworthy. The main catalyst for such studies is the observation from epidemiological

Environment-Gene interaction in common complex diseases: New approaches
AIMS Molecular Science, 2014 Approximately 100,000 different environmental chemicals that are in use as high production volume chemicals confront us in our daily lives. Many of the chemicals we encounter are persistent and have long half-lives in the environment and our bodies ...

Geographic variation in walking activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum
Population Ecology, EarlyView.This study examined whether there is geographic variation in field populations, focusing on the moving activity in the red flour beetle Tribolium castaneum. Results showed significant differences in moving activity among field populations but no correlation with latitude or meteorological factors.
