Stress hormone receptors in taste buds 'may help explain emotional eating' The researchers add that stress is also known to increase intake of salty foods. But in this study, the team did not find any GC receptors in taste buds associated with salty and sour tastes. Parker says this may be because stress could have an influence on salt taste processing in the brain. Taste buds are not only found on the tongue; they are also present in the gut and pancreas.

BRCA mutation The risk of breast and ovarian cancer is higher for women with a high-risk BRCA1 mutation than with a BRCA2 mutation. Having a high-risk mutation does not guarantee that the woman will develop any type of cancer, or imply that any cancer that appears was actually caused by the mutation, rather than some other factor.RCA mutation carriers have a higher than average risk of this common cancer, but the risk is not as high as in some other hereditary cancers. The risk might be as high as four times normal in some BRCA1 families, and double the normal risk among BRCA2 carriers.

COMT catechol-O-methyltransferase [ (human)] 1 T allele of MTHFR C677T could be associated with susceptibility to SSNHL, and even imply that this mutation could be a risk factor that is independent of blood folic acid and homocysteine. 2  The polymorphism of MTHFR A1298C was associated with reduced risk for gastric antrum cancer. The results suggest that the C677T and A1298C polymorphisms of the MTHFR gene are not related to homocysteine levels in Brazilian patients with Turner syndrome, despite the differential distribution of the mutated allele C (A1298C) in these patients.
