Genetic Disorders Sourcebook: Basic Consumer Health Information About Hereditary Diseases and Disorders, Including Cystic Fibrosis, Down Syndrome, Hemophilia, ... Disease (Health Reference Series)
from: Omnigraphics
: :Defective genes are responsible for an estimated 4,000 hereditary disorders. Children inherit these disorders from their parents in many different ways. While biomedical researchers have now identified most genes associated with genetic diseases, there are no absolute cures for these diseases today. Scientific advances have enabled affected people to experience longer and more comfortable lives, because they and their families have more beneficial means of coping with genetic disorders. This second edition Sourcebook provides new and updated information to help laypeople understand the working of genes, the ethics of gene ...

Genetic Modulators of Pulmonary Function in Cystic Fibrosis & Genetic Susceptibility Factors of Emphysema (ACTA Biomedica Lovaniensia)
: :This is a Ph.D. thesis. CF is one of the most common lethal autosomal recessive affecting the Caucasian population with an incidence of about 1 in 2500 births. Clinical manifestations are attributed to mutations in the CFTR gene, which encodes an epithelial chloride channel. Specific mutations can influence the severity and progression of CF disease, but wide variations within genetically homogenous subgroups illustrate that other determinants of the clinical status do exist. For example, certain CF phenotypes such as pancreatic insufficiency are clearly highly associated with the CFTR genotype. However, ...
