Researchers say because mices genes are so similar to humans, their findings could lead
2、 to the treatment of more genetic diseases. Scientists at the University of California, Davis studied information from a data bank of mices genetic material. They found 347 genes linked to eye problems, with just 86 of them having been studied in the past. Only around 50 to 75 percent of hereditary
3、eye diseases in human can be explained with present science. The researchers believe these hundreds of new genes found in mice could be a key to explainingand therefore being able to treat the other 2550 percent. “This is extremely valuable for people with hereditary eye disease, ”said researcher Pr
4、ofessor Ala Moshiri. “All researchers are going to start using these data. In the past, we knew the problem was there but we didnt know where to look. Now eye centers can call back patients and screen them for these new genes. We expected that more and more of these genetic diseases will be treatabl
5、e. ”Also, the fact is that more than 60 percent of eye problems at birth are ones resulting from the babys parents! Thanks to data from the International Mouse Phenotyping Consortium (IMPC), which is trying to work out what every single gene in a mouse is responsible for, with the aim of translating
6、 it to humans, scientists are moving closer to figuring out all genetic causes of blindness. To do this, scientists separate a single gene from other ones at a time and then observe what effect it has on the mouse for a long time. This has so far been done more than 7, 000 times and has achieved gre
