Genome-wide association study identifies possible genetic risk factors for colorectal adenomas.
BACKGROUND Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer-related death, and most colorectal cancer usually arises from colorectal adenomas. Removal of polyps reduces mortality from colorectal cancer. Colorectal adenomas are known to aggregate in families; however, the genetic determinants for risk of polyps are largely unknown. METHODS In this study, we used data from the Tennessee ...
متن کامل[Genetic variants, cardiovascular risk and genome-wide association studies].
Genome-wide association studies have shown an association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction in new chromosomal regions: 1p13.1, 2q36.3, 9p21 and 10q11.21. The SNPs from the 9p21 region constitute a risk haplotype due to the strong linkage disequilibrium in this area. These SNPs have been extensively replicated in several Europea...
متن کاملMeta-Analysis of Genome-Wide Association Studies Identifies Genetic Risk Factors for Stroke in African Americans.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The majority of genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of stroke have focused on European-ancestry populations; however, none has been conducted in African Americans, despite the disproportionately high burden of stroke in this population. The Consortium of Minority Population Genome-Wide Association Studies of Stroke (COMPASS) was established to identify stroke susceptib...
متن کاملA genome-wide association study of venous thromboembolism identifies risk variants in chromosomes 1q24.2 and 9q.
OBJECTIVES To identify venous thromboembolism (VTE) disease-susceptibility genes. PATIENTS AND METHODS We performed in silico genome wide association scan (GWAS) analyses using genotype data imputed to approximately 2.5 million single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) from adults with objectively-diagnosed VTE (n=1503), and controls frequency matched on age and gender (n=1459; discovery populat...
متن کاملUnveiling the genetic loci for a panicle developmental trait using genome-wide association study in rice
Panicle size has a high correlation with grain yield in rice. There is a bottleneck to identify the additional quantitative trait loci (QTL) for panicle size due to the conventional traits used for QTL mapping. To identify more genetic loci for panicle size, a panicle developmental trait (LNTB, the length from panicle neck-knot to the first primary branch in the rachis) related to panicle size ...
