31. This could be explained by defective leptin receptors in the brain, which would likely be controlled by a different gene. 32. They repeated the procedure with different genes. 33. Two people can have different gene sequences for the same receptor involved in pain control. 34. A different gene was previously associated with aging in a type of worm. 35. Gene therapy has come under harsh criticism since September, when a different gene therapy experiment killed an Arizona teen-ager. 36. However, a subgroup within the pitcher plant mosquito population has slightly different genes that cause them to develop and reproduce later into the season. 37. Last summer, Beth Israel halted a different gene therapy trial after three of the first six terminally ill cancer patients died. 38. That evidence appeared in four families, suggesting a different gene is responsible in the fifth, Eiberg said. 39. The experiment ended abruptly after the death of a teen-ager who received a different gene therapy treatment. 40. The outcry was prompted by the death last September of a Phoenix teen-ager who had volunteered for a different gene experiment. |
