12) — Columbia researchers have uncovered an array of new genes that cause stillbirth, significantly increasing the understanding of the condition’s genetic foundations. The findings suggest that genetic analysis could be used to counsel parents who have previously experienced stillbirth and to unlock new human biology.

Comparing four separate forms of the disease, they found that samples of the most aggressive form, known as metastases-like primary tumours, saw changes in activity of 74 immune-related genes, compared with changes in only 12 in the more benign insulinoma-like tumours.

Beam Therapeutics has taken over a startup whose technology could proffer the biotech’s genetic medicines to more tissues in the body, widening the potential to approach more diseases. Cambridge, Massachusetts-based Beam aims to make more precise edits with genetic medicines, which employ base-editing.

The risk profile of developing AMD has been studied for years,” he said, “and more than 50% of a given individual’s risk profile is dependent on their genetics. So, pegcetacoplan blocks an inflammatory pathway that appears to be central for geopathic genesis based on extensive genetic analysis,” Dr Wykoff concluded.
