Subacute liver failure following gene replacement therapy for spinal muscular atrophy type 1.
This paper reports on two cases of transient, drug-induced liver failure after gene replacement therapy using an adeno-associated virus vector containing the survival motor neuron 1 gene.

Genome-wide gene-environment interaction analysis of pesticide exposure and risk of Parkinson's disease.
The researchers performed the first genome-wide gene-environment interaction analysis of pesticide exposure and risk of Parkinson's disease (PD). They concluded that although no significant interactions were identified, several of the genes with suggestive evidence of gene-environment interaction effects have biological plausibility for PD risk.

Selecting SNPs informative for African, American Indian and European Ancestry: application to the Family Investigation of Nephropathy and Diabetes (FIND).
The researchers studied individual genetic ancestry (IGA) in four samples in the Family Investigation of Nephropathy and Diabetes (FIND). They found that the identified set of ancestry informtive markers (AIMs) may be particularly useful for estimating genetic admixture in populations from the Americas. They concluded that odds ratios for the associations of IGA with disease are consistent with what is known about the incidence and prevalence of diabetic nephropathy in these populations.
