Measurement methods and accuracy in copy number variation: failure to replicate associations of beta-defensin copy number with Crohn's disease.

Human Molecular Genetics, 2010
The copy number variation in beta-defensin genes on human chromosome 8 has been proposed to underlie susceptibility to inflammatory disorders, but presents considerable challenges for accurate typing on the scale required for adequately powered case ...

Majorana neutrino masses from neutrinoless double-beta decays and lepton-number-violating meson decays

Physics Letters B, 2016
The Schechter–Valle theorem states that a positive observation of neutrinoless double-beta (0νββ) decays implies a finite Majorana mass term for neutrinos when any unlikely fine-tuning or cancellation is absent.

Beta-amyloid neurotoxicity requires fibril formation and is inhibited by congo red.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1994
beta-Amyloid (beta A) is normally produced as a nontoxic soluble peptide. In Alzheimer disease, beta A aggregates and accumulates in the brain as inert diffuse plaques or compact plaques associated with neurodegenerative changes.

Extensive normal copy number variation of a beta-defensin antimicrobial-gene cluster.

American Journal of Human Genetics, 2003
Using a combination of multiplex amplifiable probe hybridization and semiquantitative fluorescence in situ hybridization (SQ-FISH), we analyzed DNA copy number variation across chromosome band 8p23.1, a region that is frequently involved in chromosomal ...
