While looking through the blogosphere we stumbled on an interesting post today.Here’s a quick excerpt UC-San Diego investigators say findings may impact treatment of additional diseases. Researchers from Japan’s RIKEN SNP Research Center, collaborating with a team at the University of California, San Diego (UCSD), have discovered a new genetic variation that affects a child’s risk of getting Kawasaki disease (KD), an illness characterized by acute inflammation of the arteries throughout the body. The genetic variation influences immune activation and the response to standard treatment, as well [...] […] Check it out!
