Weight-loss responses to GLP-1 obesity drugs, and risks of side effects, may be linked to genetic variants, according to a ...

Distinct GLP1R and GIPR variants correlated with nausea/vomiting risk, with a GIPR signal appearing tirzepatide-specific and showing markedly increased vomiting odds. New studies from 23andMe suggest ...

A large 23andMe-based GWAS found that common variants in GLP1R and GIPR help explain why some people lose more weight or ...

PALO ALTO, Calif., April 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- 23andMe Research Institute, a nonprofit medical research organization, ...

Structural variants (SVs) are alterations in the DNA sequence that involve large-scale changes, typically longer than 50 base pairs. Advances in long-read sequencing have significantly increased ...

The human genome is organised in 46 chromosomes, where all but the x and y chromosomes in men are present in two copies. This means that a person with a faulty gene on one chromosome most often has a ...

Knowing how human DNA changes over generations is essential to estimating genetic disease risks and understanding how we evolved. But some of the most changeable regions of our DNA have been ...
