Hello Health Rounds readers. Today we feature a pair of studies that took a deeper dive into the effects of GLP-1 drugs being ...

The abundance of viral DNA was measured in DNA sequenced from blood and saliva samples in biobanks, revealing strong ...

Scientists show DNA polymerases can build long, patterned DNA without a template, opening new paths for synthetic biology and ...

Why do Ozempic and Zepbound work differently for everyone? A new study identifies genetic variants linked to GLP-1 weight loss and side effects.

A large 23andMe-based GWAS found that common variants in GLP1R and GIPR help explain why some people lose more weight or ...

Distinct GLP1R and GIPR variants correlated with nausea/vomiting risk, with a GIPR signal appearing tirzepatide-specific and showing markedly increased vomiting odds. New studies from 23andMe suggest ...

Structural variants (SVs) are alterations in the DNA sequence that involve large-scale changes, typically longer than 50 base pairs. Advances in long-read sequencing have significantly increased ...

Researchers have demonstrated a specific type of genetic variation in obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) for the first time using advanced DNA sequencing technology. The findings support previous ...

Researchers have unveiled a new biological platform for studying mitochondrial DNA in physiology, adaptation, disease mechanisms, and therapeutic development.

A new study reveals that female sperm whales maintain an invisible genetic barrier, redefining their population ...

The study of genetic variation and growth traits in tree species is crucial for understanding the mechanisms that underpin forest productivity, resilience and adaptation. Recent advances in molecular ...
