Intervertebral disc degenerative disease in South Africa: a case-control analysis of selected gene variants.
Mol Biol Rep
September 2024
Precision Medicine Unit, Department of Biotechnology, University of the Western Cape, Cape Town, South Africa.
Background: Intervertebral disc (IVD) degenerative disease is a multifactorial disease for which genetics plays an integral role. Several genes, and their variants, associated with the development and progression of IVD degenerative disease have been identified. While several studies have investigated these genes in Asian and European populations, no available evidence exists for the South African population.

Article Synopsis
- Brisk walkers have better physical fitness, body composition, and muscle strength, prompting a study on genetic variants linked to increased walking speed among elite sprinters versus controls.
- The analysis involved 70 genetic markers from a large study and focused on 137 Russian elite sprinters compared to 126 controls, using advanced genotyping methods.
- The study identified 15 genetic variants positively associated with being a sprinter, with one variant linked to more fast-twitch muscle fibers, and showed that having more favorable alleles increases the odds of being an elite sprinter significantly.

Over the past decades, numerous studies on the genetic markers of osteoarthritis (OA) have been conducted. MiRNA targets sites are a promising new area of research. In this study, we analyzed the polymorphic variants in 3' UTR regions of , , , , , , , , , and genes to examine the association between miRNA target site alteration and the incidence of OA in women from the Volga-Ural region of Russia using competitive allele-specific PCR.
