Is Mortalin a Candidate Gene for T1DM ?

Autoimmunity, 2004
Mortalin has been found to be up-regulated by 2D-protein gel analysis in isolated rodent islets exposed to cytokines. In islets from two rat strains with different sensitivity to the toxic effects of cytokines we observed a significant difference in IL-1beta mediated mortalin expression.

Using the BITOLA system to identify candidate genes for Parkinson's disease

Biomolecules & Biomedicine, 2011
Complexity of multifactorial diseases as Parkinson’s disease (PD) often complicate identifying causal genetic factors by traditional approaches such as positional cloning and candidate gene analyses.

The FAGenomicH project: towards a whole candidate gene approach to identify markers associated with fatness and production traits in pigs and investigate the pig as a model for human obesity

Italian Journal of Animal Science, 2010
Fatness in pigs is a complex trait for which a large number of genes are expected to be involved. Genetics of human obesity could take advantages from genetic information coming from the pig and vice versa.

Evaluating historical candidate genes for schizophrenia [PDF]

Molecular Psychiatry, 2015
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]

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2012
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

Identification of candidate genes affecting the tibia quality in Nonghua duck

Poultry Science
: The skeleton is a vital organ providing structural support in poultry. Weakness in bone structure can lead to deformities, osteoporosis, cage fatigue, and fractures, resulting in economic losses.

Candidate Genes in thyroid disorders

Клиническая и экспериментальная тиреоидология, 2005
Hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism are well known to be the main clinical features of thyroid pathology. Although a lot of mechanisms of these disorders exist, thyroid resection, radioiodine or drug (antithyroid or hormone replacement) therapy are still ...

Ovarian Sex Cord Stromal Tumors in Children and Adolescents—The European Standard Clinical Practice Recommendations

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As part of the European Cooperative Study Group for Paediatric Rare Tumours initiative, we developed standard clinical practice guidelines for ovarian sex cord stromal tumors, based on comprehensive national and international cohort analyses, literature review, and a final expert consensus conference.

Transcriptomic Characterization of Candidate Genes for Fusarium Resistance in Maize (Zea mays L.)

Pathogens
Fusarium diseases are among the most dangerous fungal diseases of plants. To date, there are no plant protectants that completely prevent fusariosis. Current breeding trends are therefore focused on increasing genetic resistance.
