20110008906 | Genetic Association of Polymorphisms in Perilipin (PLIN) Gene With Resistance to Weight Loss - Diagnostics and therapeutics for resistance to weight-loss, which are based upon the identification of a subject's PLIN polymorphisms, haplotype and genotype pattern, are described in this invention. | 01-13-2011 |
20100136561 | Genetic Markers for Weight Management and Methods of Use Thereof - This application relates to methods and tests that allow for the establishment of personalized weight-loss programs for a subject based upon the subject's metabolic genotype in key metabolic genes. Kits and methods are disclosed for determining a subject's metabolic genotype, which may be used to select an appropriate therapeutic/dietary regimen or lifestyle recommendation based upon the likelihood of a subject's responsiveness to certain diets and activity levels. Such a personalized weight-loss program will have obvious benefits (e.g., yield better results in terms of weight loss and weight maintenance) over traditional weight-loss programs that do not take into account genetic information. | 06-03-2010 |
20100129798 | DETECTING GENETIC PREDISPOSITION TO OSTEOARTHRITIS ASSOCIATED CONDITIONS - This application relates to methods and kits for detecting predisposition to increased risk for osteoarthritis associated conditions. | 05-27-2010 |
20100112570 | Genetic Markers for Weight Management and Methods of Use Thereof - This application relates to methods and tests that allow for the establishment of personalized weight-loss programs for a subject based upon the subject's metabolic genotype in key metabolic genes. Kits and methods are disclosed for determining a subject's metabolic genotype, which may be used to select an appropriate therapeutic/dietary regimen or lifestyle recommendation based upon the likelihood of a subject's responsiveness to certain diets and activity levels. Such a personalized weight-loss program will have obvious benefits (e.g., yield better results in terms of weight loss and weight maintenance) over traditional weight-loss programs that do not take into account genetic information. | 05-06-2010 |
20100105038 | GENETIC MARKERS FOR WEIGHT MANAGEMENT AND METHODS OF USE THEREOF - This application relates to methods and tests that allow for the establishment of personalized weight-loss programs for a subject based upon the subject's metabolic genotype in key metabolic genes. Kits and methods are disclosed for determining a subject's metabolic genotype, which may be used to select an appropriate therapeutic/dietary regimen or lifestyle recommendation based upon the likelihood of a subject's responsiveness to certain diets and activity levels. Such a personalized weight-loss program will have obvious benefits (e.g., yield better results in terms of weight loss and weight maintenance) over traditional weight-loss programs that do not take into account genetic information. | 04-29-2010 |
20100098809 | GENETIC MARKER WEIGHT MANAGEMENT - A system and method for facilitating personal weight management based on genetic markers. Genetic samples can be analyzed and genotype patterns can be identified and provided to a user. Wellness information, including macronutrient requirements and exercise requirements, based on genotype patterns can be generated. Genotype patterns and wellness information can be stored, transmitted and displayed via computer networks and the internet. Existing third party diets, meal plans, and/or fitness programs can be recommended based on the genotype patterns. Individuals can use nutritional tracking software and/or exercise metric programs coupled with their genetic information to make adjustments to their diet and/or exercise to lose weight. Individuals can purchase nutrition products based on their genotype information. | 04-22-2010 |
20100098775 | DETECTING GENETIC PREDISPOSITION TO OSTEOARTHRITIS ASSOCIATED CONDITIONS - This application relates to methods and kits for detecting predisposition to increased risk for osteoarthritis associated conditions. | 04-22-2010 |
20100028893 | METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR PHARMACOGENETIC ANALYSIS OF ANTI-INFLAMMATORY DRUGS IN THE TREATMENT OF RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS AND OTHER INFLAMMATORY DISEASES - The invention provides methods and compositions for the pharmacogenetic analysis of anti-inflammatory compounds, especially for the pharmacogenetic association of responsiveness to rheumatoid arthritis medications that target TNFα. | 02-04-2010 |
20090170105 | Diagnostics for Aging-Related Dermatologic Disorders - The present invention provides methods for the early prediction of aging-related dermatologic conditions of including skin changes associated with intrinsic aging or skin damages caused by extrinsic aging such as photoaging. The present invention also provides kits for the early determination of the propensity to develop such disorder and conditions. The method consists of detecting the presence of one or more alleles of an IL-1 haplotype or pattern, specifically the IL-1RN (+2018) and the IL-1B (−511) loci. The presence of allele 2 at the IL-1RN (+2018) and the IL-1B (−511) loci indicates decreased risk for a early onset of aging related dermatologic conditions. | 07-02-2009 |
