Análisis de la asociación entre sexo y diferencias en pigmentación humana según el genotipo del gen MC1R
Universitat Jaume I (2016)Introducción: La pigmentación cutánea basal y la respuesta al sol por bronceamiento son rasgos hereditarios influidos por varios genes, entre los que el gen mc1r es uno de los más importantes. Mutaciones en este gen afectan ... -
Association between Microbiome-Related Human Genetic Variants and Fasting Plasma Glucose in a High-Cardiovascular-Risk Mediterranean Population
MDPI (2022)Background and Objectives: The gut microbiota has been increasingly recognized as a relevant factor associated with metabolic diseases. However, directly measuring the microbiota composition is a limiting factor for ... -
Candidate Gene and Genome-Wide Association Studies for Circulating Leptin Levels Reveal Population and Sex-Specific Associations in High Cardiovascular Risk Mediterranean Subjects
MDPI (2019)Leptin is a hormone crucial in the regulation of food intake and body-weight maintenance. However, the genes and gene variants that influence its plasma levels are still not well known. Results of studies investigating ... -
Central neurogenetic signatures of the visuomotor integration system
National Academy of Sciences (2020)Visuomotor impairments characterize numerous neurological disorders and neurogenetic syndromes, such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD) and Dravet, Fragile X, Prader–Willi, Turner, and Williams syndromes. Despite recent ... -
Circulating adiponectin and Its association with metabolic traits and Type 2 Diabetes: gene-diet interactions focusing on selected gene variants and at the genome-wide level in high-cardiovascular risk mediterranean subjects
MDPI (2021-02-07)Adiponectin is gaining renewed interest since, in addition to its possible protective role against insulin resistance and arteriosclerosis, recent studies suggest other additional favorable effects. However, the influence ... -
Genome-Wide Association Study for Serum Omega-3 and Omega-6 Polyunsaturated Fatty Acids: Exploratory Analysis of the Sex-Specific Effects and Dietary Modulation in Mediterranean Subjects with Metabolic Syndrome
MDPI (2020)Many early studies presented beneficial effects of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) on cardiovascular risk factors and disease. However, results from recent meta-analyses indicate that this effect would be very low or ... -
Identificación de variantes genéticas asociadas a efélides en la población de origen español
Universitat Jaume I (2017-06-13)Introducción: Las efélides son lesiones hiperpigmentadas benignas que aparecen más comúnmente en individuos con pelo rojo y piel clara. Están altamente determinadas por factores genéticos e inducidas por el sol. El objetivo ... -
Molecular Basis of RNA-Driven ATP Hydrolysis in DExH-Box Helicases
American Chemical Society (2023-03-29)The spliceosome machinery catalyzes precursor messenger (pre-m)RNA splicing. In each cycle, the spliceosome experiences massive compositional and conformational remodeling fueled by the concerted action of specific ... -
The effect of the AKT1 gene and cannabis use on cognitive performance in healthy subjects
Sage (2020-06-13)Background: Evidence suggests that the AKT1 gene may modulate the degree to which cannabis use induces cognitive alterations in patients with a psychotic disorder. Aim: To examine the interplay between AKT1 and cannabis ... -
Turning Garlic into a Modern Crop: State of the Art and Perspectives
MDPI (2023)Garlic is cultivated worldwide for the value of its bulbs, but its cultivation is challenged by the infertility of commercial cultivars and the accumulation of pathogens over time, which occurs as a consequence of ... -
Understanding the Improvement in the Stability of a Self-Assembled Multiple-Quantum Well Perovskite Light-Emitting Diode
American Chemical Society (2020-11-07)We fabricate two-dimensional Ruddlesden–Popper layered perovskite films by introducing 1-naphthylmethylamine iodide into the precursor, which forms a self-assembled multiple-quantum well (MQW) structure. Enabling outstanding ...
