In a recent article published in Nature Medicine, researchers investigated the potential implications of single-nucleotide variations in gut-residing bacterial species (microbiome) on human health.

CMD-related SNPs. CMD, coronary microvascular dysfunction; SNP, single nucleotide polymorphism. The findings suggest that a genetics-driven approach could revolutionize CMD diagnosis and treatment, ...

Single nucleotide variations in DNA sequences, single nucleotide polymorphisms, tend to be present in or close to genetic regions that are implicated in debilitating diseases. SNPs are also stably ...
