Pharmacogenetic variation in Neanderthals and Denisovans and implications for human health and response to medications

2021-11-28

Abstract excerpt

Modern humans carry both Neanderthal and Denisovan (archaic) genome elements that are part of the human gene pool and affect the life and health of living individuals. The impact of archaic DNA may be particularly evident in pharmacogenes – genes responsible for the processing of exogenous substances such as food, pollutants, and medications. However, the health implications and contribution of archaic ancestry in...
