Copy Number Variation and Osteoporosis
Abstract Purpose of Review The purpose of this review is to summarize recent findings on copy number variations and susceptibility to osteoporosis. Recent Findings Osteoporosis is highly influenced by genetic factors, including copy number variations (CNVs).

Copy number variation in schizophrenia in Sweden [PDF]
Schizophrenia is a highly heritable neuropsychiatric disorder of complex genetic etiology. Previous genome-wide surveys have revealed a greater burden of large, rare CNVs in schizophrenia cases and identified multiple rare recurrent CNVs that increase risk of schizophrenia although with incomplete penetrance and pleiotropic effects.

Reconstructing DNA copy number by joint segmentation of multiple sequences [PDF]
The variation in DNA copy number carries information on the modalities of genome evolution and misregulation of DNA replication in cancer cells; its study can be helpful to localize tumor suppressor genes, distinguish different populations of cancerous ...

The population genetics of adaptation through copy-number variation in a fungal plant pathogen
Microbial pathogens can rapidly adapt to changing environments such as the application of pesticides or host resistance. Copy number variations (CNV) are a major source of adaptive genetic variation for recent adaptation.

Including copy number variation in association studies to predict genotypic values [PDF]
The objective of this study was to investigate, both empirically and deterministically, the ability to explain genetic variation resulting from a copy number polymorphism (CNP) by including the CNP, either by its genotype or by a continuous derivation ...

Copy number variation across European populations.
Genome analysis provides a powerful approach to test for evidence of genetic variation within and between geographical regions and local populations. Copy number variants which comprise insertions, deletions and duplications of genomic sequence provide ...

Genetic association studies of copy-number variation: should assignment of copy number states precede testing? [PDF]
Recently, structural variation in the genome has been implicated in many complex diseases. Using genomewide single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) arrays, researchers are able to investigate the impact not only of SNP variation, but also of copy-number ...

Copy Number Variation Analysis of Euploid Pregnancy Loss
Objectives: Copy number variant (CNV) is believed to be the potential genetic cause of pregnancy loss. However, CNVs less than 3 Mb in euploid products of conceptions (POCs) remain largely unexplored. The aim of this study was to investigate the features
