Genome-wide association study of primary open-angle glaucoma in continental and admixed African populations. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) is a complex disease with a major genetic contribution. Its prevalence varies greatly among ethnic groups, and is up to five times more frequent in black African populations compared to Europeans.

Family-Based Genetic Association for Molar-Incisor Hypomineralization

open access: yesCaries Research, 2016
Despite some evidence of genetic and environmental factors on molar-incisor hypomineralization (MIH), its aetiology remains unclear. This family-based genetic association study aimed more comprehensively to investigate the genetic carriage potentially ...

Association between polymorphisms in segregation genes BUB1B and TTK and gastric cancer risk

open access: yesRadiology and Oncology, 2016
Malignant transformation of normal gastric cells is a complex and multistep process, resulting in development of heterogeneous tumours. Susceptible genetic background, accumulation of genetic changes, and environmental factors play an important role in ...

Genome-Wide Expression Quantitative Trait Loci Analysis Using Mixed Models

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2018
Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) are important for understanding the genetic basis of cellular activities and complex phenotypes. Genome-wide eQTL analyses can be effectively conducted by employing a mixed model. The mixed model includes random

Polygenic Risk Score Prediction for Endometriosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Reproductive Health, 2021
Endometriosis is a major health care challenge because many young women with endometriosis go undetected for an extended period, which may lead to pain sensitization.

Epistatic Interaction Between 5-HT1A and Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Gene Polymorphisms in the Northern Chinese Han Population With Major Depressive Disorder

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychiatry, 2019
Aims: Serotonin 1A receptor (5-HT1A) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) are widely expressed in the neurons of the hippocampus and have significant roles in the pathophysiological processes of major depressive disorders (MDDs).

Diversity, differentiation, and linkage disequilibrium: prospects for association mapping in the malaria vector anopheles arabiensis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Association mapping is a widely applied method for elucidating the genetic basis of phenotypic traits. However, factors such as linkage disequilibrium and levels of genetic diversity influence the power and resolution of this approach.

Further evidence for a male-selective genetic association of synapse-associated protein 97 (SAP97) gene with schizophrenia

open access: yesBehavioral and Brain Functions, 2012
Background The synapse-associated protein 97 gene (SAP97) encodes a regulatory scaffold protein for the localization of L-alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazole propionic acid (AMPA), kainate and N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) type glutamate receptors ...
