Sentence examples for variants that modify from inspiring English sources
General population genetic assessment using genetic variants that modify TGCT risk currently has no proven value for risk prediction.
Although finally having a strong impact, the responsible genetic markers may be common, low-penetrance genetic variants that modify susceptibility to breast cancer.
We previously conducted a meta-analysis of four case-only genome-wide gene-environment interaction studies to identify genetic variants that modify the association of MHT use with breast cancer risk [ 29].
NCCs are precursor cells for a wide variety of tissue types, 119, 120 so domestication selection for behavior could be targeting genetic variants that modify NCC numbers or migration, which in turn leads to a variety of pleiotropic effects.
Thrombo inCode® is a new genetic tool that has demonstrated very good sensitivity, thanks to very good coverage of the genetic variants that modify the function of the coagulation pathway.
In principle, the GYPB*S/s alleles might not be the only functional GPB variants that modify P. falciparum invasion efficiencies in the Brazilian population studied.
Recently, O'Brien et al. [ 57] reported a gene x environment interaction for a dopamine transporter gene (DAT1) variant that modifies the risk for externalising problems in male but not in female adolescents after prenatal exposure to maternal smoking which was assessed via repeated cotinine-corrected reports.
While many factors contribute to this variance, including measurement error in exposure and/or phenotype, it is likely that the timing of the exposure and variant genetic factors that modify the response to toxicants contribute significantly to the observed variance.
Thus there would appear to be a good correlation between variants that can modify RCC risk in VHL and those that have been reported to be associated with RCC risk in sporadic RCC patients.
Here, we aimed to identify genetic variants that may modify the association between MHT use and mammographic density.
We could not detect any association between mitochondrial DNA background and other clinical features, and whole mitochondrial DNA sequencing in nine patients did not show any mitochondrial DNA variants that could modify the phenotype (B. van den Bosch, unpublished observation,).
