Mosaic loss of Y chromosome increases risk for heart failure and cardiac fibrosis in men

Why a condition that frequently occurs in aging men, in which an increasing number of hematopoietic cells display a loss of the Y chromosome, is associated with increased risk of mortality and age-related diseases is now a little clearer, thanks to work in mice.

MINAR2 gene mutations cause progressive hearing loss

Researchers at the John T. Macdonald Department of Human Genetics and the John P. Hussman Institute for Human Genomics at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine have found that inherited mutations in the MINAR2 gene caused deafness in four families. The gene variation mostly affects the inner ear hair cells, which are critical to hearing.
