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.
Mutations of the GLA gene in Korean patients with Fabry disease and frequency of the E66Q allele as a functional variant in Korean newborns. Beom Hee Lee, Sun Hee Heo, Gu-Hwan Kim, Jung-Young Park, Woo-Shik Kim, Duk-Hee Kang, Kyung Hoon Choe, Won-Ho Kim, Song Hyun Yang and Han-Wook Yoo.n this report on Korean Fabry families, all mutations in the GLA gene, excluding p.E66Q (24 / 25), were private, in that they were restricted to an individual family, and widely distributed along the gene, as in other populations. The characteristics of the mutations were also similar to those in other populations.
