"Asked if Merck would attempt to develop other HIV vaccines in the wake of the failed trial, Gottesdiener said, "At this point, we can't give an answer; we're just starting to look at this data and all its implications."

That is also how I view it.

Could this also be because DNAP is scheduled to move to a new location and the reason things are out of sorts?

"This is the culmination of a project that was begun when the company was founded," stated DNAPrint President and Chief Executive Officer Richard Gabriel. "It has taken until now to validate the original findings, but validated they are. The Company has filed a patent to protect this process. We plan to bring to market a definitive test product to identify this genetic variant and to potentially prevent painful -- and in some cases, fatal -- side effects in thousands of patients who are taking a very common prescription drug."
DNAPrint's study of 750 patients who had taken either atorvastatin (Lipitor®) or simvastatin (Zocor®) showed that patients carrying one specific genetic marker were approximately 2.5 times more likely to experience mild to severe muscle pain (myalgia). The effect was most pronounced for atorvastatin and the study showed that approximately one half of the patients who were removed from atorvastatin therapy due to muscle symptoms possess this genetic marker, whereas in the general population (with and without cardiovascular disease) only approximately 15%-25% of people carry the marker. DNAPrint applied its technology for measuring population structure (e.g., ancestry) in order to prove that the finding in both the discovery and validation samples was genuine, and in so doing received praise from JPG reviewers. This observation indicates that the genetic marker may be related not only to response to statins but also to a possible relationship with higher cholesterol levels, according to the study.
"DNA Print Genomics was founded on the underlying genomic screening methods developed to more efficiently scan the genome for medically important genetic markers of drug responses," stated Dr. Frudakis. "The current findings are another example of the efficiency of the Company's methods."

Neat! Now I wonder how much does this cost in the Philippines. Most of our dogs here are hybrid breeds, or mongrels. Tracing their DNA would be very very fascinating."

Eye on Doggie DNA

More animal DNA in the news! And even for me, who’s indifferent to animals, it’s fascinating stuff.
DNAPrint Genomics, makers of the AncestryByDNA and EuroDNA admixture genealogy tests, has introduced their latest product - Doggie DNAPrint. And similar to its human counterpart, Doggie DNAPrint traces your dog’s ancestry and compares it to four ancient ancestral breeds. All you need to do is to take a cheek swab of your dog, send it in to the lab, and you’ll get these results within 6 to 9 weeks:
Raw genetic data
A graphic depiction of the animal’s DNA
Information on how to interpret the results
Doggie DNAPrint analyzes 204 “unique canine Ancestry Informative Markers (CanAIMs) on the dog genome.” As the Doggie DNAPrint database grows, you’ll also be able to compare your dog’s score to other purebred and mixed breed dogs. And personalized medicine for your dog isn’t far behind. Other companies offering breed DNA analysis tests for dogs include The Mars Wisdom Panel MX and Canine Heritage.
In other news, a man who claimed he saw a mountain lion in his Maine back yard has found that DNA tests on a sample of fur show it was a fox. Mr. Kelvin Higgins still insists that it was a mountain lion although the last mountain lion documented in Maine was seen and killed in 1938. Guess not everyone is awed by DNA test results.
Have you had a DNA test done on your dog yet?
Update: The four ancestral dog groups are: wolf-like, herders, hunters, and mastiff. And, the price of Doggie DNAPrint hasn’t been set yet but they’re offering some sort of “deep discount” if you express your interest at their website now.
