Candidate Genes Associated with Sow Longevity
The economic efficiency of swine operations is always a topic of discussion for pork producers and allied industries especially now when feed grain prices are being pushed higher as the demand for bio-fuels increases. However, many factors outside of feed prices influence the breakeven costs and thus economic efficiency for swine operations. Of those additional factors, sow herd performance is ...
متن کاملAssociation of Candidate Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms Related to Candidate Genes in Patients With Schizophrenia
Introduction: Schizophrenia is a chronic heterogenic neurodevelopment disorder. Many genes interfere in the development of SCZ. All four genes, NrCAM, PRODH, ANK3, and ANKK1, which were evaluated in this study, were previously reported to be associated with Schizophrenia. The NrCAM contributes to creating cognitive deficiencies through the CAM’s signaling pathway. PRODH plays a vital role in cr...
متن کاملCandidate genes for nicotine dependence via linkage, epistasis, and bioinformatics.
Many smoking-related phenotypes are substantially heritable. One genome scan of nicotine dependence (ND) has been published and several others are in progress and should be completed in the next 5 years. The goal of this hypothesis-generating study was two-fold. First, we present further analyses of our genome scan data for ND published by Straub et al. [1999: Mol Psychiatry 4:129-144] (PMID: 1...
متن کاملInflammation and stress-related candidate genes, plasma interleukin-6 levels, and longevity in older adults.
Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is an inflammatory cytokine that influences the development of inflammatory and aging-related disorders and ultimately longevity. In order to study the influence of variants in genes that regulate inflammatory response on IL-6 levels and longevity, we screened a panel of 477 tag SNPs across 87 candidate genes in >5000 older participants from the population-based Cardiovascu...
متن کاملExploring epistasis in candidate genes for rheumatoid arthritis
The identification of susceptibility genes for common, chronic disease presents great challenges. The development of novel statistical and computational methodologies to help identify these genes is an area of great necessity. Much research is ongoing and the Genetic Analysis Workshop (GAW) is a venue for the dissemination and comparison of many of these methods. GAW15 included real data sets t...
