First gene linked to missing spleen in newborns
ScienceDaily (May 3, 2012) Researchers at Weill Cornell Medical College and Rockefeller University have identified the first gene to be linked to a rare condition in which babies are born without a spleen, putting those children at risk of dying from infections they cannot defend themselves against. The gene, Nkx2.5, was shown to regulate genesis of the spleen during early development in mice. Continue reading

Gene therapy for HIV safe, but effectiveness still unclear
By Randy Dotinga HealthDay Reporter WEDNESDAY, May 2 (HealthDay News) — New research shows that gene therapy can have long-lasting effects on the immune cells of HIV patients — a promising sign — even though the specific treatment being studied did not eradicate the virus. This approach is one of several gene therapy strategies that are being investigated by scientists as possible ways to keep the AIDS virus from spreading in the blood. In this case, “people were treated by gene therapy and nothing bad happened Continue reading

Naturally blond hair in Solomon Islanders rooted in native gene
ScienceDaily (May 3, 2012) The common occurrence of blond hair among the dark-skinned indigenous people of the Solomon Islands is due to a homegrown genetic variant distinct from the gene that leads to blond hair in Europeans, according to a new study from the Stanford University School of Medicine. “This is one of the most beautiful examples to date of the mapping of a simple genetic trait in humans,” said David Reich, PhD, a professor of genetics at Harvard University, who was not involved in the study Continue reading
