玛丽女王大学的一项研究发现了 100 个与血压相关的新人类基因组区域,使独立遗传信号总量增加到 2,000 多个。 100 new human genome regions linked to blood pressure discovered in study by Queen Mary University, increasing total independent genetic signals to over 2,000.
由伦敦玛丽女王大学领导的研究人员发现了人类基因组中 100 多个影响血压的新区域,使血压的独立遗传信号总数增加到 2,000 多个。 Researchers led by Queen Mary University of London discovered over 100 new regions of the human genome that influence blood pressure, increasing the total number of independent genetic signals for blood pressure to over 2,000. 该研究发表在《自然遗传学》杂志上,是迄今为止最大的血压基因组研究之一,涵盖了超过 100 万人的数据。 The study, published in Nature Genetics, is one of the largest genomic studies of blood pressure to date and includes data from over 1 million individuals. 研究结果表明,血压是一种高度复杂的特征,受数千种不同基因变异的影响,这为研究人员更好地了解血压调节和潜在发现新的药物靶点铺平了道路。 The findings show that blood pressure is a highly complex trait influenced by thousands of different genetic variants, paving the way for researchers to better understand blood pressure regulation and potentially discover new drug targets.
