Genome-Wide Association Studies in Atherosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent 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 Study on Longitudinal Change in Fasting Plasma Glucose in Korean Population [PDF]

open access: yesDiabetes & Metabolism Journal, 2023
Background Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) on type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) have identified more than 400 distinct genetic loci associated with diabetes and nearly 120 loci for fasting plasma glucose (FPG) and fasting insulin level to date ...

rMVP: A Memory-efficient, Visualization-enhanced, and Parallel-accelerated Tool for Genome-wide Association Study

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2020
Along with the development of high-throughout sequencing technologies, both sample size and number of SNPs are increasing rapidly in Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) and the associated computation is more challenging than ever.

Dissecting the genetic heterogeneity of gastric cancerResearch in context

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2023
Summary: Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is clinically heterogenous according to location (cardia/non-cardia) and histopathology (diffuse/intestinal). We aimed to characterize the genetic risk architecture of GC according to its subtypes.

Single-step genome-wide association study for susceptibility to Teratosphaeria nubilosa and precocity of vegetative phase change in Eucalyptus globulus

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
IntroductionMycosphaerella leaf disease (MLD) is one of the most prevalent foliar diseases of Eucalyptus globulus plantations around the world. Since resistance management strategies have not been effective in commercial plantations, breeding to develop ...

Common variants in FOXP1 are associated with generalized vitiligo [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
In a recent genome-wide association study of generalized vitiligo, we identified ten confirmed susceptibility loci. By testing additional loci that showed suggestive association in the genome-wide study, using two replication cohorts of European descent,

Genome-wide association study of male sexual orientation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Family and twin studies suggest that genes play a role in male sexual orientation. We conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) of male sexual orientation on a primarily European ancestry sample of 1,077 homosexual men and 1,231 heterosexual men ...

Genome-wide Association Studies

open access: yes, 2013
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are a powerful hypothesis-free tool for the dissection of susceptibility to common heritable human diseases, including osteoporosis. To date, more than 10,000 loci for common human diseases and traits have been identified by GWAS; and it is hard to think of a methodological breakthrough in recent times that has ...

Genome-wide association study identifies variants at CLU and PICALM associated with Alzheimer's disease, and shows evidence for additional susceptibility genes

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2009
We undertook a two-stage genome-wide association study (GWAS) of Alzheimer's disease (AD) involving over 16,000 individuals, the most powerful AD GWAS to date.
