Genome wide association scan for chronic periodontitis implicates novel locus
BACKGROUND There is evidence for a genetic contribution to chronic periodontitis. In this study, we conducted a genome wide association study among 866 participants of the University of Pittsburgh Dental Registry and DNA Repository, whose periodontal diagnosis ranged from healthy (N = 767) to severe chronic periodontitis (N = 99). METHODS Genotypingi of over half-million single nucleotide pol...
متن کاملNovel genomic loci influencing plasma homocysteine levels.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Genetic factors that influence interindividual variation in levels of plasma homocysteine, a risk factor for vascular disease, are not fully understood. We performed linkage analyses to identify genomic regions that influence homocysteine levels in blacks and non-Hispanic whites. METHODS Subjects (n=2283) belonged to hypertensive sibships and included 1319 blacks (63+/-...
متن کاملHAGR: the Human Ageing Genomic Resources
The Human Ageing Genomic Resources (HAGR) is a collection of online resources for studying the biology of human ageing. HAGR features two main databases: GenAge and AnAge. GenAge is a curated database of genes related to human ageing. Entries were primarily selected based on genetic perturbations in animal models and human diseases as well as an extensive literature review. Each entry includes ...
متن کاملTransethnic genome-wide scan identifies novel Alzheimer's disease loci
INTRODUCTION Genetic loci for Alzheimer's disease (AD) have been identified in whites of European ancestry, but the genetic architecture of AD among other populations is less understood. METHODS We conducted a transethnic genome-wide association study (GWAS) for late-onset AD in Stage 1 sample including whites of European Ancestry, African-Americans, Japanese, and Israeli-Arabs assembled by t...
متن کاملGenomic Scan Reveals Loci under Altitude Adaptation in Tibetan and Dahe Pigs
High altitude environments are of particular interest in the studies of local adaptation as well as their implications in physiology and clinical medicine in human. Some Chinese pig breeds, such as Tibetan pig (TBP) that is well adapted to the high altitude and Dahe pig (DHP) that dwells at the moderate altitude, provide ideal materials to study local adaptation to altitudes. Yet, it is still s...
