kanzure"usceptibility to lung cancer due to smoking is at least partly genetic. If you have certain variants of a specific gene (don't have time for the lit search right now), smoking won't significantly increase your chances of lung cancer."09:53
kanzureanyone know the allele or genes of interest?09:53
Lucas_I have no clue09:58
Lucas_where did you find the gene?09:58
kanzure"Although cigarette smoking is the dominant risk factor for several epithelial cancers, only a small fraction of individuals with tobacco exposure develop cancer."09:58
kanzureof course- cigs have much more than tobacco..09:58
kanzureGenome-wide association scan of tag SNPs identifies a susceptibility locus for lung cancer at 15q25.1 http://www.nature.com/ng/journal/v40/n5/abs/ng.109.html09:59
kanzure"we analyzed 315,450 tagging SNPs in 1,154 current and former (ever) smoking cases of European ancestry and 1,137 frequency-matched, ever-smoking controls from Houston, Texas."09:59
kanzuregod damn it houston :(09:59
kanzure"Two SNPs, rs1051730 and rs8034191, mapping to a region of strong linkage disequilibrium within 15q25.1 containing PSMA4 and the nicotinic acetylcholine receptor subunit genes CHRNA3 and CHRNA5, were significantly associated with risk in both replication sets"09:59
kanzure"We conclude that variation in a region of 15q25.1 containing nicotinic acetylcholine receptors genes contributes to lung cancer risk."10:00
Lucas_interesting stuff10:02

Lucas_too bad we can't leverage that to our advantage now04210:11
kanzureit looks like it increases nicotine addiction, causing more smoking and causing more damage10:12

archelskanzure: How far along are we in simulating protein-protein interactions?11:40
kanzurethere's lots of software released for that11:41
archelsHow decent is it?11:52
archelsI'm asking for your personal opinion12:06
kanzureyeah i know12:07
kanzureit's been a long time so it's gonig to take me a while to remember anything good12:07
kanzureligand-ligand stuff tends to be good..12:07

superkuhHm. Applying that in general to other organs and tissues probably will not work. Lots of animal eyes have a well known dipole, otherwise EOG wouldn't work. But not other tissues.12:43
