SNG in a nutshell15 Apr 2021 18:48
Nice paper posted on ADVFN that explains in a nutshell the market SNG could serve.
Potentially 10-25% of the global population.
"We decided to study more than 400 people who had tested positive for COVID-19 who did not belong to any of these risk groups and study their genetic material depending on whether they had not had symptoms, or they were very mild, or instead they had been admitted to the hospital requiring respiratory assistance. We found that there were epigenetic variations, the chemical switches that regulate DNA activity, in the individuals positive for the virus who developed a severe COVID-19. These modifications occurred mainly in genes associated with an excessive inflammatory response and in genes that reflect an overall worse state of health. Interestingly, 13% of the world population presents this epigenetic signature (EPICOVID), thus, this is the group at maximum risk that we must take special care of. " - concludes the researcher.
"These results complement and confirm the implication of the interferon-directed antiviral response and its importance in the evolution of the disease, as we explained in a complete genome sequencing study published in the journal Science last September," says Dr. Pujol and continues: "With these advanced tools of personalized medicine, both in the field of genomics and epigenomics, it is possible to design predictive models that allow detecting patients at risk of a worse prognosis and therefore improve their treatment and avoid the collapse of the health system."
