Article Synopsis
- Population allele frequency is essential for understanding genetic variants in medicine, and large databases like gnomAD serve as references.
- Variances in rare allele frequencies between populations suggest that local data can be more informative than global averages; many regions, including Russia, lack comprehensive genetic studies.
- The RUSeq project created a large genetic variant reference set from 7,452 exome samples in Moscow and St. Petersburg, revealing significant genetic diversity and identifying notable pathogenic variants specific to Russia.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates how humans adapt to extreme environmental conditions, focusing on high altitude mountaineers facing low oxygen levels (hypoxia).
- Researchers analyzed the genetic makeup of 22 elite climbers and discovered two significant genetic variants associated with hypoxic adaptation, which may lead to respiratory issues.
- The findings suggest that certain genetic losses in function could play a crucial role in enabling adaptation to harsh conditions, aligning with previous research on human adaptation.
Bacterial microbiota in stool may vary over a wide range, depending on age, nutrition, etc. The purpose of our work was to discriminate phyla and genera of intestinal bacteria and their biodiversity within a healthy population (North-Western Russia) compared to the patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). The study group included 183 healthy persons 2 to 53 years old (a mean of 26.

Cell-precursors (progenitor cells) and differentiated cells can be divided a limited number of times and aren't capable of ensuring regeneration of tissues during the whole process of ontogenesis. The renewal of tissues during the whole long period is impossible without the participation of a specialized system which is responsible for regeneration.

On the average, post-flight BMD remains within the normal range and the broad variability of individual BMD values sometimes is qualified as local osteopenia. Individual reactions are typed by similarity of amount and rate of BMD loss.
