The lipoprotein lipase S447X polymorphism and plasma lipids
We studied 4,058 subjects from a representative sample of the Singapore population 1) to determine the association between the S447X polymorphism at the LPL locus and serum lipid concentration in Chinese, Malays, and Asian Indians living in Singapore and

Gene-environment interactions in atherosclerosis
It is becoming clear that genetic and environmental factors can interact to varying degrees in a given individual. In some cases, genetically determined resistance to CAD (eg, genetic hyperalpha- or hypobetalipoproteinemia), or genetically determined susceptibility to CAD (eg, high Lp[a] levels) may not be significantly modulated by a prudent lifestyle.

Use of spermatozoal mRNA profiles to study gene-environment interactions in human germ cells
Paternal exposure to genotoxic compounds is thought to contribute to diseases in their offspring. Therefore, it is of importance to develop biomarkers of male germ cell exposure to genotoxins.

IPRS: Leveraging Gene-Environment Interaction to Reconstruct Polygenic Risk Score
Background: Polygenic risk score (PRS) is widely regarded as a predictor of genetic susceptibility to disease, applied to individuals to predict the risk of disease occurrence.

Gene-environment interactions and the response to exercise
Many of the symptoms of heart failure (breathlessness and fatigue) are not primarily due to reduced cardiac output, but relate to an impairment of peripheral muscle performance and metabolic efficiency. With regular training it is possible to increase skeletal muscle performance through improvements in muscle efficiency.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

How combinations of gene-environment interactions collectively give rise to genotype-environment interactions is not fully understood. To shed light on this problem, we genetically dissected an environment-specific poor growth phenotype in a cross of two
