Inbreeding, Native American ancestry and child mortality: linking human selection and paediatric medicine
(Oxford University Press, 2022)
The children of related parents show increased risk of early mortality. The Native American genome typically exhibits long stretches of homozygosity, and Latin Americans are highly heterogeneous regarding the individual ...
Frequency of TNFA, INFG, and IL10 Gene Polymorphisms and Their Association with Malaria Vivax and Genomic Ancestry
(Hindawi Ltd, 2016-01-01)
Polymorphisms in cytokine genes can alter the production of these proteins and consequently affect the immune response. The trihybrid heterogeneity of the Brazilian population is characterized as a condition for the use ...
Amerindian ancestry and extended longevity in Nicoya, Costa Rica
(2018-01)
Objectives: The aim of this study was to address the hypothesis that Amerindian
ancestry is associated with extended longevity in the admixed population of Nicoya,
Costa Rica. The Nicoya Peninsula of Costa Rica has been ...

Uniparental ancestry markers in Chilean populations
(Brazilian Genetics Society, 2017)
Extended HLA-G genetic diversity and ancestry composition in a Brazilian admixed population sample: Implications for HLA-G transcriptional control and for case-control association studies
(2018-11-01)
Human leukocyte antigen-G (HLA-G) is a nonclassical Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) molecule with immunomodulatory function and restricted tissue expression. The genetic diversity of HLA-G has been extensively studied ...
Facial asymmetry and genetic ancestry in Latin American admixed populations
(Wiley, 2015)
Fluctuating and directional asymmetry are aspects of morphological variation widely used to infer environmental and genetic factors affecting facial phenotypes. However, the genetic basis and environmental determinants of ...
Ancestry as a potential modifier of gene expression in breast tumors from Colombian women
(San Francisco, California, EE.UU, 2017-08-17)
Background
Hispanic/Latino populations are a genetically admixed and heterogeneous group, with variable fractions of European, Indigenous American and African ancestries. The molecular profile of breast cancer has been ...
The Simons Genome Diversity Project: 300 genomes from 142 diverse populations
(Springer Nature, 2016)
Here we report the Simons Genome Diversity Project data set: high quality genomes from 300 individuals from 142 diverse populations. These genomes include at least 5.8 million base pairs that are not present in the human ...
