Clinical Gene Group Cards
Genes grouped by function — desired regulatory pattern and what supports each group.
DNA repair genes
These genes are the DNA repair team — they correct mistakes, repair breaks and protect cells from accumulated damage.
Tumor suppressor & cell-cycle genes
These genes are the brakes of abnormal cell growth. If silenced, damaged cells may continue dividing.
Antioxidant & detox genes
These genes are the body's internal antioxidant and detox defense — they protect from oxidative stress, toxins and inflammation.
Methylation & homocysteine genes
These genes help the body produce and use methyl groups, recycle homocysteine, and support DNA synthesis, neurotransmitters and liver/brain health.
Mitochondrial & energy genes
These genes help mitochondria produce energy, adapt to exercise, burn fat and reduce oxidative stress.
Inflammatory genes
These genes help the body fight infection and injury. Chronic activation contributes to inflammation, pain, fatigue, insulin resistance and aging.
Immune tolerance genes
These genes help the immune system know when to calm down — important for tolerance and preventing excessive activation.
Metabolic & glucose genes
These genes help control insulin, glucose, fat storage, appetite and metabolic flexibility.
Repetitive DNA / retroelements
Repetitive or ancient viral-like sequences. They usually need to stay controlled to reduce genomic noise and instability.
