Genome-Wide Association Studies of Asthma

Allergology International, 2011
Bronchial asthma is a common inflammatory disease caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. To discover the genes and cellular pathways underlying asthma, a large number of genetic studies have been conducted.

A genome-wide association study on medulloblastoma [PDF]

Journal of Neuro-Oncology, 2020
Abstract Introduction Medulloblastoma is a malignant embryonal tumor of the cerebellum that occurs predominantly in children. To find germline genetic variants associated with medulloblastoma risk, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) including 244 medulloblastoma cases and 247 control subjects from Sweden and Denmark.

Assigning function to genome wide association study variants associated with complex gastrointestinal disease [PDF]

, 2009
PhDThe genome‐wide association study era has identified numerous loci associated with many common polygenic diseases. The next challenge is to identify the functional consequences of these variants and elicit how they impact on disease risk.

Genome-Wide Association Studies in Atherosclerosis [PDF]

Current Atherosclerosis Reports, 2011
Cardiovascular disease remains the major cause of worldwide morbidity and mortality. Its pathophysiology is complex and multifactorial. Because the phenotype of cardiovascular disease often shows a marked heritable pattern, it is likely that genetic factors play an important role.

Genome-wide association studies in Plasmodiumspecies [PDF]

BMC Biology, 2010
Abstract Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) look for correlations between traits of interest and genetic markers spread throughout the genome. A recent study in BMC Genetics has found that populations of the malaria parasite Plasmodium vivax should be amenable to GWAS searching for a genetic basis of parasite pathogenicity.

Genome-wide association studies in ADHD [PDF]

Human Genetics, 2009
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, ADHD, is a common and highly heritable neuropsychiatric disorder that is seen in children and adults. Although heritability is estimated at around 76%, it has been hard to find genes underlying the disorder. ADHD is a multifactorial disorder, in which many genes, all with a small effect, are thought to cause ...

Genome-wide association studies in cancer [PDF]

Human Molecular Genetics, 2008
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) provide a powerful approach to identify common, low-penetrance disease loci without prior knowledge of location or function. GWAS have been conducted in five of the commonest cancer types: breast, prostate, colorectal and lung, and melanoma, and have identified more than 20 novel disease loci, confirming that ...

Genome-wide association study of major depressive disorder: new results, meta-analysis, and lessons learned [PDF]

, 2010
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a common complex disorder with a partly genetic etiology. We conducted a genome-wide association study of the MDD2000+ sample (2431 cases, 3673 screened controls and >1 M imputed single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)).

Genome-wide association study of receptive language ability of 12 year olds [PDF]

, 2013
Purpose: We have previously shown that individual differences in measures of receptive language ability at age 12 are highly heritable. The current study attempted to identify some of the genes responsible for the heritability of receptive language ...
