SNPing away at innate immunity.
(CF) is a genetic disorder caused by mutation in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) (1). A hallmark of the disease is a defect in chloride con-ductance, particularly in serous gland cells and respiratory epithelial cells. Depletion of the periciliary liquid layer, partly due to a defect in ciliary transport, has pleiotropic consequences with respect to local host def...
متن کاملSNPing away at candidate genes.
We develop regression methodology to identify subsets of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within candidate genes related to quantitative traits and apply our methods to the simulated Genetic Analysis Workshop (GAW) 12 data set. In the data set we find 694 SNP loci with minimum allele frequencies of at least 0.01. We assume an additive casual model between these SNPs and all five quantitat...

was well tolerated in phase 1 and 2 studies, and therefore has already passed its first important test. Nevertheless, inhibition of JAK2 raises concerns, since JAK2 is required for signaling by the receptors for erythropoietin, thrombopoietin, and in part, G-CSF. In this respect, it is encouraging that cells carrying JAK2-V617F were more sensitive to the inhibition of lestaurtinib than cells wi...
متن کاملSNPing away at complex diseases: analysis of single-nucleotide polymorphisms around APOE in Alzheimer disease.
There has been great interest in the prospects of using single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the search for complex disease genes, and several initiatives devoted to the identification and mapping of SNPs throughout the human genome are currently underway. However, actual data investigating the use of SNPs for identification of complex disease genes are scarce. To begin to look at issues s...
