A locus on chromosome 5 is associated with dilated cardiomyopathy in Doberman Pinschers [PDF]
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a heterogeneous group of heart diseases with a strong genetic background. Currently, many human DCM cases exist where no causative mutation can be identified.

Evaluating historical candidate genes for schizophrenia [PDF]
Prior to the genome-wide association era, candidate gene studies were a major approach in schizophrenia genetics. In this invited review, we consider the current status of 25 historical candidate genes for schizophrenia (e.g., COMT, DISC1, DTNBP1, and NRG1).

Candidate genes in ocular dominance plasticity [PDF]
Many studies have been devoted to the identification of genes involved in experience-dependent plasticity in the visual cortex. To discover new candidate genes, we have reexamined data from one such study on ocular dominance (OD) plasticity in recombinant inbred BXD mouse strains. We have correlated the level of plasticity with the gene expression data

Ryanodine receptor gene is a candidate for predisposition to malignant hyperthermia
Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a potentially lethal condition in which sustained muscle contracture, with attendant hypercatabolic reactions and elevation in body temperature, are triggered by commonly used inhalational anaesthetics and skeletal muscle ...

Association of the AFF3 gene and IL2/IL21 gene region with juvenile idiopathic arthritis [PDF]
Recent genetic studies have led to identification of numerous loci that are associated with susceptibility to autoimmune diseases. The strategy of using information from these studies has facilitated the identification of novel juvenile idiopathic ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Hyperlipidemia is a major risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Although statins are the cornerstone of lipid‐lowering therapy, their use may be limited in some patients by adverse effects. This study evaluated the possible impact of non‐drug treatment using double‐filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) on CD14+
