Have you ever wondered how our body produces energy from food or why some people get heart diseases quickly? The answer to these questions is hidden in a very complex process of our body, which is called metabolism. This process determines how our body digests food, how energy is produced and what effects it can have on health. In such a situation, let us now tell you how the secret of health is hidden in every drop of blood and which new genes have been discovered by scientists.
Scientists discovered 750 new genes
Recently, scientists have made a discovery which has given a new perspective to the understanding of health and diseases. In fact, scientists have identified more than 750 genes that control small molecules like lipids and amino acids present in our blood. These molecules play an important role in almost every chemical process of our body.
Research done on 4.5 lakh people
This research is based on the genetic data of about 4.5 lakh people of UK Bio Bank. The special thing about this research is that it included people of European, African and Asian origin. The study has revealed that these genes controlling metabolism were found to be similar in almost all lineages and even in men and women. This means that the results of this research are not applicable to any one category but to the entire world population. At the same time, in this research, scientists also found some new genes whose role was never linked to metabolism before. Not only this, many such organisms were also found which are associated with those genes, which increase the risk of conditions like heart diseases, obesity or diabetes. The most important aspect of this study is a new organism, VEG, which controls good cholesterol in the body. Scientists believe that understanding this gene can open the way for new medicines for the prevention and treatment of heart-related diseases.
New way to understand metabolism
This research has revealed that this is the first time that scientists have been able to systematically map the genetic control of hundreds of blue molecules. This will help in finding out which genes increase the risk of diseases and which strengthen our good health.
