Human genetics of GPR54

Reviews in Endocrine and Metabolic Disorders, 2007
Idiopathic hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (IHH) is a condition characterized by absence of sexual maturation in the setting of low sex steroids and low/normal gonadotropins. Despite its rarity, considerable genetic heterogeneity and phenotypic variability exists in this disorder.

The genetics of human obesity

Translational Research, 2014
The heritability of obesity has long been appreciated and the genetics of obesity has been the focus of intensive study for decades. Early studies elucidating genetic factors involved in rare monogenic and syndromic forms of extreme obesity focused attention on dysfunction of hypothalamic leptin-related pathways in the control of food intake as a major

Human Genetics in Burma

Human Heredity, 1981
Contrary to earlier reports from Asia, trisomy 21 is common in Burma and other chromosome abnormalities are found. A variety of dominant, recessive and X-linked genetic disorders occur. Twins are found in 1% of births and MZ and DZ twins are equally common.

Genetics of human hypertension

Trends in Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2005
Hypertension is a complex genetic disorder caused by interplay between several "risk" genes and environmental factors (genetic heritability approximately 30%). Most genetic studies of hypertension use a candidate gene approach and two conclusions have been made: there is no association or linkage with the genes studied, or the hypertension phenotype is

Genetics and human reproduction

Trends in Genetics, 1998
Most people want children, and most people want healthy children. For those couples with an infertility problem who have recourse to assisted reproduction, usually in vitro fertilization (IVF) or donor insemination (DI), the practitioners have a special responsibility to ensure as far as possible that the babies in whose conception they assist are in ...

Genetics of human obesity

Best Practice & Research Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2006
This chapter presents the current state of knowledge in the field of the genetics of human obesity. The molecular approach has proved to be powerful in defining new syndromes associated with obesity. The pivotal role of leptin and melanocortin pathways has been recognized, but only in rare cases of obesity.

Genetic Enhancement in Humans

Science, 1999
A great deal of public excitement and controversy has been associated with advances in gene technology, especially the idea that humans could be experimentally "enhanced." However, based on the recent history of transgenic experiments in animals, the prospects are much less rosy than portrayed, and even successful efforts could not affect human ...

Biochemistry of Human Genetics.

Archives of Neurology, 1960
Designated with pride as one of the sponsor's anniversary publications commemorating 10 years of effective promotion of "international cooperation in medical and chemical research," this volume containing the proceedings of a well-organized symposium on the biochemistry of gene action is another feather in the cap of the Ciba Foundation.

Human Genetics on the Web

Annual Review of Genomics and Human Genetics, 2001
Use of the World Wide Web (“the web”) and our knowledge of human genetics are both currently expanding rapidly. By allowing swift, universal, and free access to data, the web has already played an important role in human genetics research. It has also begun to change the way that information is shared in clinical genetics and, to a lesser degree ...
