Children exposed to gestational diabetes in utero with a specific variation of a common gene are at a higher risk of becoming overweight or obese during childhood, according to a new study by ...

Here, genetic polymorphisms may have clinical utility to predict which men develop early-onset prostate cancer. These polymorphisms may reside in known genes or in gene-poor regions.

Purpose. The effects of genetic polymorphisms on the pharmacokinetics of calcineurin inhibitors were examined. Pharmacogenetics examines the relationship between single-gene polymorphisms and the ...
