| 20090081683 | Kits and Methods for Assessing the Coenzyme Q Reducing Status of a Patient, Including a Patient Ingesting a Statin - The disclosure relates to kits and methods for assessing whether an individual is likely to benefit from nutritional supplementation with coenzyme Q and, more particularly, a reduced form of coenzyme Q. The methods involve assessing occurrence of a polymorphism in the gene encoding NQO1 in the individual. Individuals homozygous for the polymorphism will receive optimal benefits from supplementation with the reduced form of coenzyme Q. The disclosure further relates to methods for predicting and assigning a coenzyme Q redox status phenotype based on assessment of an individual's genome for a polymorphism in the gene encoding NQO1. | 03-26-2009 |
| 20080311587 | Use of Genetic Information to Detect a Predisposition for Bone Density Conditions - The invention relates to kits and methods for assessing susceptibility of a human to an undesirable bone density condition, such as osteopenia and osteoporosis, and advising appropriate interventions. The methods involve contemporaneously assessing occurrence in the human's genome of a plurality of polymorphisms (e.g., single nucleotide polymorphisms) that occur in one or more genes associated with bone density regulation and that are associated with a disorder in humans. Preferred assessment and scoring methods are disclosed, as are kits for performing the methods. | 12-18-2008 |
