Osteoporosis (OP) is the most prevalent metabolic bone disease among developed countries and it is defined as a systemic skeletal disease characterized by low bone mass and microarchitectural deterioration of bone tissue with a consequent increase in bone fragility and susceptibility to nontraumatic fracture [1].

Genetics and the Origin of the Genetic Code
Origins of Life, 1974The genetic code has been analysed by a method similar to that used by Gregor Mendel. The current codon catalogue is shown to be symmetrically subdivisible into two discrete subcatalogues of eight quartets each by classifying the quartets as monocoding (for one amino acid only) vs heterocoding (for two amino acids or for amino acid plus nonsense).

Genetics and genetic testing for glaucoma
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2017In recent decades, investigators have identified numerous genes and genetic factors that cause or contribute risk for glaucoma. These findings have increased our understanding of disease mechanisms, provided us with new diagnostic tools, and may allow for development of improved therapies for glaucoma. However, genetic testing is most useful when it is

Genetics in the art and art in genetics
Gene, 2015"Healing is best accomplished when art and science are conjoined, when body and spirit are probed together", says Bernard Lown, in his book "The Lost Art of Healing". Art has long been a witness to disease either through diseases which affected artists or diseases afflicting objects of their art.

Genetic algorithms for genetic mapping [PDF]
, 1998 Constructing genetic maps is a prerequisite for most in-depth genetic studies of an organism. The problem of constructing reliable genetic maps for any organism can be considered as a complex optimization problem with both discrete and continuous parameters. This paper shows how genetic algorithms can been used to tackle this problem on simple pedigree.

Giornale italiano di nefrologia : organo ufficiale della Societa italiana di nefrologia, 2016Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is the most frequent genetic disease, characterized by progressive development of bilateral renal cysts. Two causative genes have been identified: PKD1 and PKD2. ADPKD phenotype is highly variable. Typically, ADPKD is an adult onset disease.

Genetics and Genetic Counselling
1971In man the genetic code is carried in the nuclear deoxyribonucleic acid (D.N.A.). This D.N.A. is present as long helical double filaments in the chromosomes. The sequence of nucleic acids in these D.N.A. strands determines the nature of the cell proteins and hence the structure and function of the cell.

The Mendelian analysis of genetic variation, available as induced mutants or as natural variation, requires a number of steps that are described in this chapter. These include the determination of the number of genes involved in the observed trait's variation, the determination of dominance relationships between alleles of the same locus, and epistatic

Genetics and reverse genetics of rotavirus
Current Opinion in Virology, 2012Rotavirus is a member of the family Reoviridae, which have genomes consisting of 10-12 double-stranded RNA segments. The functions of proteins encoded by each segment of the rotavirus genome have been studied extensively by several methods including reassortants, temperature-sensitive mutants, isolates with rearranged RNA segments, RNAi analysis, and ...

Genetics in medicine and medicine in genetics
The American Journal of Medicine, 1963Abstract The role of genetics in medicine is discussed in the framework of diagnosis, prognosis and treatment. The role of medicine in the advancement of genetics is illustrated with a list of ten leading discoveries in human genetics.
