Evolutionary analysis of human porsociality: an approach based on the study of HPA axis related genes in informative ancient populations Open
An analysis of genetic variants (SNPs, Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms) related to behaviors that may have favored the social and biological adaptation of our species in the last ~40,000 years has been carried out. These genetic polymorphi…
High frequency of mitochondrial haplogroups H and H2 in medieval individuals from the Cathedral of Santa María (Basque Country). Their contribution to the study of inflammatory arthropathies Open
The haplogroup H has been associated with high mitochondrial energy efficiency, which may have favoured survival and reproduction under adverse environmental conditions. On the other hand, it enhances the production of Reactive Oxygen Spec…
The domestic dog that lived ∼17,000 years ago in the Lower Magdalenian of Erralla site (Basque Country): A radiometric and genetic analysis Open
Dogs are known to be the first species domesticated by humans, although the geographic and temporal origin of this process is still under debate in different fields of knowledge. In the present study, we examined a humerus from a canid rec…
Is Ankylosing Spondylitis a single disease? A clinical and genetic perspective Open
Background: The aim of the present study was to evaluate whether ankylosing spondylitis (AS) and non-radiographic axial spondyloartritis (nr-axSpA) are subsets of a single disease from a genetic perspective. Methods: We analyzed from a cli…
Environmental factors modulated ancient mitochondrial DNA variability and the prevalence of rheumatic diseases in the Basque Country Open
Among the factors that would explain the distribution of mitochondrial lineages in Europe, climate and diseases may have played an important role. A possible explanation lies in the nature of the mitochondrion, in which the energy generati…
Paleogenetics of Northern Iberian from Neolithic to Chalcolithic Time Open
Dynamics of the Neolithic transition across Europe using ancient DNA datasets have established that Neolithic European populations received a limited amount of admixture from resident hunter-gatherers. However, the genetic diversity of Neo…
Genetic Markers in a Medieval Case of Ankylosing Spondylitis Open
To the Editor: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic rheumatic autoimmune disease that affects mainly the sacroiliac joints and spine, where it causes ankylosis through processes of inflammation and ossification. Although the exact accu…
