More than 140 years ago, Charles Darwin noticed something peculiar about domesticated mammals. Compared to their wild ancestors, domestic species are more tame, and they also tend to display a suite of other characteristic features, including floppier ears, patches of white fur, and more juvenile faces with smaller jaws. Since Darwins observations, the explanation for this pattern has proved elusive, but now, in a Perspectives article published in the journal GENETICS, a new hypothesis has been proposed that could explain why breeding for tameness causes changes in such diverse traits.

The underlying link between these features could be the group of embryonic stem cells called the neural crest, suggest the authors. Although this proposal has not yet been tested, it is the first unified hypothesis that connects several components of the domestication syndrome. It not only applies to mammals like dogs, foxes, pigs, horses, sheep and rabbits, but it may even explain similar changes in domesticated birds and fish.

Because Darwin made his observations just as the science of genetics was beginning, the domestication syndrome is one of the oldest problems in the field. So it was tremendously exciting when we realized that the neural crest hypothesis neatly ties together this hodge-podge of traits, says Adam Wilkins, from the Humboldt University of Berlin. Wilkins is an editor at GENETICS and one of the papers authors.

Neural crest cells are formed near the developing spinal cord of early vertebrate embryos. As the embryo matures, the cells migrate to different parts of the body and give rise to many tissue types. These tissues include pigment cells and parts of the skull, jaws, teeth, and earsas well as the adrenal glands, which are the center of the fight-or-flight response. Neural crest cells also indirectly affect brain development.

In the hypothesis proposed by Wilkins and co-authors Richard Wrangham of Harvard University and Tecumseh Fitch of the University of Vienna, domesticated mammals may show impaired development or migration of neural crest cells compared to their wild ancestors.

When humans bred these animals for tameness, they may have inadvertently selected those with mild neural crest deficits, resulting in smaller or slow-maturing adrenal glands, Wilkins says. So, these animals were less fearful.

But the neural crest influences more than adrenal glands. Among other effects, neural crest deficits can cause depigmentation in some areas of skin (e.g. white patches), malformed ear cartilage, tooth anomalies, and jaw development changes, all of which are seen in the domestication syndrome. The authors also suggest that the reduced forebrain size of most domestic mammals could be an indirect effect of neural crest changes, because a chemical signal sent by these cells is critical for proper brain development.

This interesting idea based in developmental biology brings us closer to solving a riddle thats been with us a long time. It provides a unifying hypothesis to test and brings valuable insight into the biology of domestication, says Mark Johnston, Editor-in-Chief of GENETICS.

Why Do Domestic Mammals Share Characteristic Traits?

"Birds of a feather flock together," says social network researcher James Fowler. "And now we know why."

Compared to strangers living in the same area, people who are friends are much more likely to to share a number of closely related genes, according to a new study co-authored by Fowler, a professor of medical genetics and political science at the University of California, San Diego, who studies the intersection of natural and social sciences.

Fowler and his colleague Nicholas Christakis, professor of sociology, evolutionary biology, and medicine at Yale, examined 1.5 million markers of genetic relatedness in more than 1,900 people.

Their study concluded that, overall, friends are about as genetically similar as fourth cousins. The genes that friends had most in common were olfactory genes connected to the sense of smell, while genes for disease immunity were least likely to be shared. The study is published today in Proceedings of the National Academies of Sciences.

Both olfactory and immune genes changed rapidly over evolutionary history, Fowler told CBS News. "The genes we share are the genes that evolved fastest. Human friendship has turbocharged evolution."

He cited an example of how some genes could create synergies to help friends survive over evolutionary history: "If you are the first person to get a mutation to speak language, it is worthless without friends who also have that mutation. You need friends to get the benefit of language. Many traits are built on this property."

Olfactory genes work together to allow you to detect and interpret odors. In a press release from UCSD Fowler explains why we might share the same smell genes between friends: "Our sense of smell draws us to similar environments. It is not hard to imagine that people who like the scent of coffee, for example, hang out at cafes more and so meet and befriend each other." Fowler says that the reason may be deeper than that, but it will take more research to figure it out.

Why aren't genes for immunity more likely to be shared? Researchers have previously found that spouses tend to have lots of genes in common, but very different collections of immune genes from each other, so the finding that friends have different - perhaps complementary - immune profiles does not surprise Fowler. He points out that "being surrounded by people who are immune to different pathogens protects you, and prevents the spread of diseases."

Scientists have examined several ways that people might detect immune genes in others, like face shape and body odor, but the mechanism remains unclear.

The researchers used data collected as part of The Framingham Heart Study, a long-term study involving thousands of residents in Massachusetts.

MONTREAL Finding a donor for a stem cell transplant is perhaps one of the most difficult things for a cancer patient.

This is because stem cells are one of the few things that patients cannot rely on their immediate family to donate, according to to Doctor Silvy Lachance, Director of the stem cell transplant program at Hpital Maisonneuve-Rosemont.

Of course, we first look within the family, she said.

But there is only 25 per cent chance of identifying a donor. If we dont find a donor within the family, we try the international donor registry.

According to the National Cancer Institute, bone marrow and peripheral blood stem cell transplantations are most commonly used to treat leukemia, lymphoma, neuroblastoma (a cancer that affects mostly infants and children) and multiple myeloma.

While they wait for a compatible donor, patients will be assigned a conditioning regiment, which may include radiation.

This conditioning regiment will be followed by the infusion of stem cells that are compatible with the recipient, said Lachance.

Yet, for most ethnic minorities or anyone of mixed-birth, the chances of finding an anonymous donor remain very difficult.

Clive Randell, 57, injured his leg in a motorcycle accident in 2011 Thanks to a new stem cell procedure, he can now ride his bike again Stem cells taken from the pelvis are blended with gel to 'glue' the bone

By David Gerrie

A pioneering stem cell procedure to repair fractured bones could provide a lifeline for accident victims facing the amputation of a limb.

The development involves harvesting stem cells master cells that are able to transform into any kind of body tissue from the patients pelvis, blending them with a specially created gel and injecting the solution into the damaged bone.

One patient already benefiting is lifelong motorcycle enthusiast Clive Randell who suffered horrific injuries to his left leg when his Harley-Davidson was rammed by a car in 2011.

On yer bike: Clive Randell, 57, pictured with his 'saviour' Professor Anan Shetty at Kents Canterbury Christ Church University, can now ride his bike again after undergoing the new stem cell procedure

He suffered multiple open fractures, leaving bone protruding through the skin, and extensive skin loss. Doctors repeatedly told him his leg would have to be amputated.

Today, though, Clive, 57, is back on his feet and, astonishingly, also his bike thanks to the ground-breaking stem-cell treatment.

When Alexis Sturgeons brother was 15 years old, he started having flu-like symptoms, vomiting, and problems thinking clearly. He was eventually diagnosed with a life-threatening condition known as ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency (OTC).

OTC is a genetic disorder that causes ammonia to build up in the blood and then travel to the central nervous system. It can cause neurological damage and even be fatal. Because theres no cure, Alexiss brother takes several medications just to stay alive.

Through genetic testing, Alexis discovered that she, with her mother and two out of her three sisters were all carriers of the disorder. If Alexis had a child, there was a 50 percent chance that her baby would have the condition. Still in college, Alexis was devastated and worried if she would ever have a healthy baby one day.

After learning about her options, she decided that, when she was ready to have children, she would opt for pre-implantation genetic diagnosis (PGD), a procedure that screens embryos created through IVF for genetic abnormalities.

After I found out I was a carrier, I already knew the path that I wanted to take to be able to have children, she said. I didnt want my future children to have to worry about it at all. Now married and hoping to start a family, Alexis underwent PGD in 2012, but the pregnancy didnt take. She tried again and found out she was pregnant the day after Christmas. In August 2013, Alexis delivered a healthy baby girl.

What is pre-implantation genetic diagnosis? The addition of IVF to genetics is tremendously powerful and synergistic, said Dr. Brian Kaplan, a fertility specialist at the Fertility Centers of Illinois. According to Kaplan, PGD allows doctors to take an individualized approach to medicine.

PGD technology was developed in the 1990s, but only recently has it started to become more popular and a more viable option for couples who want to ensure their baby wont inherit serious, even fatal, genetic conditions like Tay-Sachs, Cystic Fibrosis, and Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) and genetic mutations like the BRACA gene, known to cause breast cancer. For couples who are both carriers of an autosomal recessive gene, their baby has a 1 in 4 chance of inheriting that genetic disorder.

According to the Society for Assisted Reproductive Technology, 5 percent of the more than 165,000 infertility cycles used PGD in 2012.

PGD also eliminates the need for a mother to undergo chorionic villus sampling (CVS) or amniocentesis or having to decide to terminate a pregnancy.

It gives patients the option of making this decision long before pregnancy, Kaplan said.

Seattle, WA (PRWEB) July 13, 2014

Athletes with a certain genetic make-up are prone to a longer recovery period from concussions, according to research presented today at the American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicines (AOSSM) Annual Meeting. The research marks the first of its kind investigating a genetic association to concussion based on the known physical events that occur after a head injury.

We identified that patients with a long allele in the (GT)n genotype were four times more likely to have a prolonged concussion recovery, noted lead author Jane McDevitt, PhD, from Temple University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Because genes determine the structure and function of proteins involved in the cells resistance and response to mechanical stress, its not surprising there could be a connection to recovery from a traumatic event like a head injury.

The 52 athletes participating in the study went through standardized concussion assessments following injury, and provided a saliva sample. Each was followed until fully recovered and placed into an either normal or prolonged recovery group, at which point DNA was extracted from samples for further study.

Making the genetic connection in this data is an exciting step for concussion injury research, noted McDevitt. Knowing this information could help improve monitoring and management of athletes who experience concussion, and may also aid in the development of genetic counseling in athletes exposed to concussive head impacts.

Patients included in the study were from the Concussion Center in the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at the Temple University School of Medicine.

The American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine (AOSSM) is a world leader in sports medicine education, research, communication and fellowship, and includes national and international orthopaedic sports medicine leaders. The Society works closely with many other sports medicine specialists, including athletic trainers, physical therapists, family physicians, and others to improve the identification, prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation of sports injuries. AOSSM is also a founding partner of the STOP Sports Injuries campaign to prevent overuse and traumatic injuries in kids.
