What is fitness genomics? Fitness genomics involves genetic testing and counselling of an individual to learn more about their genes that are associated with one’s fitness. Information obtained from the fitness genomics can help design your fitness routine and thus
Genetic testing involves various types of medical tests that can detect changes in genes, chromosomes, and proteins. Currently, there are over 77,000 genetic tests which help in determining an individual’s predisposition to developing or passing on a genetic disorder to
Genetic testing is the new buzzword that is doing the rounds these days in the medical field. The advancements in genetics have paved the way for genetic testing and awareness about it is spreading like wildfire. Genetic testing means looking
A recent clinical trial, that was originally published in The Lancet Neurology, found that people whose previous treatments for migraine headaches had failed, found a great relief with monoclonal antibody eptinezumab. The trial was performed to examine whether intravenously administered
The very first targeted therapy for epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (ERBB2, formerly known as HER 2)–low breast cancer has got Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval. JAMA Network published this news from the FDA. Breast cancer cells with higher-than-normal
Co-overexpression (Overexpression – The abnormal expression of a gene in increased quantity) of HER2/cortactin proteins were found to be an important predictive biomarker for gastric cancer (GC) patients, according to the study published in the Clinical and Experimental Medicine. The
Nutrigenomics, also called as nutritional genomics, is a newly emerging field based on the unique relationship between gene expression, nutrients, and diet. With the completion of the Human Genome Project, the field of nutrigenomics gained an impetus. It lays the
