Best Answer: The biggest reason was that Britain started the Industrial Revolution earlier than other countries. Because they had newer technology, they could sell it to other countries to make money, and also use it to conquer other places.
1 Atopic dermatitis (AD) with Filaggrin (FLG) mutations is associated with an increased SC IL-1 cytokine profile; this profile is also seen in a murine homologue of filaggrin deficiency. 2  FLG mutations increase the risk for persistent dry skin, persistent eczema, and AE and non-AE at age 8 years. Loss-of-function mutations in the gene encoding FLG are linked with IV in Northern European and Japanese populations and results here demonstrate that FLG mutations are also associated with IV in a Bangladeshi population.
Prothrombin G20210A was identified in the 1990s, is almost exclusively present in Caucasians, and is estimated to have originated in that population slightly over 20,000 years ago.About 2 to 3% of Caucasians carry the variant, and it confers a 2- to 3-fold higher risk of VTE.he polymorphism is located in a noncoding region of the prothrombin gene (3' untranslated region nucleotide 20210), replacing guanine with adenine. The position is at or near where the pre-mRNA will have the poly-A tail attached.
