Linking traits based on their shared molecular mechanisms
There is growing recognition that co-morbidity and co-occurrence of disease traits are often determined by shared genetic and molecular mechanisms. In most cases, however, the specific mechanisms that lead to such trait-trait relationships are yet unknown. Here we present an analysis of a broad spectrum of behavioral and physiological traits together with gene-expression measurements across gen...
متن کاملViral Infections and their Role in Autoimmune Diseases, with Emphasis on Mechanisms and Molecular Interactions
Introduction: The exact cause of most autoimmune diseases is still unknown; however, several factors play a role in causing or exacerbating autoimmune reactions. In addition to environmental factors such as bacterial, parasitic, fungal and viral infections, factors such as genetic characteristics and lifestyle are also included. Infections caused by viruses usually trigger a strong immune respo...
متن کاملTraits and metatraits: their reliability, stability, and shared genetic influence.
Metatraits measure individual differences in construct relevancy, whereas traits measure individual differences in construct extremity. Twenty-four traits and metatraits were examined in this study using 157 pairs of identical twins reared together, 95 pairs of identical twins reared apart, 211 pairs of fraternal twins reared together, and 228 pairs of fraternal twins reared apart obtained from...
متن کاملLinking Shared Segments
As an alternative to communication via messages or files, shared memory has the potential to be simpler, faster, and less wasteful of space. Unfortunately, the mechanisms available for sharing in Unix are not very easy to use. As a result, shared memory tends to appear primarily in self-contained parallel applications, where library or compiler support can take care of the messy details. We hav...
متن کاملMechanisms linking Mental Health Problems and Cardiac Disease: A Review
Psychological problems play a critical role in development of cardiovascular disease. Several mechanisms were suggested to explain the association and mechanism of this effect, recently. Knowledge of the mechanisms mediating the association between psychological status and heart disease could help in developing treatments. The effects of mind and mood on the cardiovascular system can be due to ...
