Psychosocial twin cohort studies in Japan: the Keio Twin Research Center (KoTReC) [PDF]

, 2019
The Keio Twin Research Center (KoTReC) was established in 2009 at Keio University to combine two longitudinal cohort projects — the Keio Twin Study (KTS) for adolescence and adulthood and the Tokyo Twin Cohort Project (ToTCoP) for infancy and childhood ...

Association of cumulative early medical events and neurodevelopmental conditions through a common latent factor—A population‐based twin study

JCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The cumulative effect of early medical events has been shown to be associated with autism. It is unclear whether this effect is specific to autism or if it is associated to other neurodevelopmental conditions (NDCs) as well. Methods We established a registry‐linked population‐based twin cohort of 10,254 pairs within the child and ...

Monozygotic Heterocaryotic Twinning [PDF]

Acta geneticae medicae et gemellologiae, 1974
Since the first publication in 1961, cases of monozygotic heterocaryotic twinning have been repeatedly found and a total of 14 observations can now be analysed. The mechanism involved in this type of twinning is yet uncertain and eventually is not identical in each case, the main uncertainty being to decide whether the chromosomal error affecting one ...

Pathogenesis of Vitiligo: Integrating Immune and Non‐Immune Cell Crosstalk

The Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vitiligo is an acquired autoimmune disease characterized by depigmented macules resulting from melanocyte loss. It is a complex multifactorial disorder in which genetic predisposition is combined with environmental factors; however, its detailed etiology remains unclear.

Associations Between Cognitive Functions and Subsequent Mood Disorder Prognosis in Low‐Risk, High‐Risk and Affected Monozygotic Twins: A Seven‐Year Follow‐Up Study

Acta Psychiatrica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Aberrant cognition is common among individuals at familial risk for mood disorders (MD) and those already affected. However, long‐term prospective studies are needed to determine whether specific cognitive features predict illness onset and relapse; and whether cognitive impairments reflect neurodevelopmental traits or ...

Equivalent DNA methylation variation between monozygotic co-twins and unrelated individuals reveals universal epigenetic inter-individual dissimilarity

Genome Biology, 2021
Background Although the genomes of monozygotic twins are practically identical, their methylomes may evolve divergently throughout their lifetime as a consequence of factors such as the environment or aging. Particularly for young and healthy monozygotic

VJ Segment Usage of TCR-Beta Repertoire in Monozygotic Cystic Fibrosis Twins

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
Sixteen monozygotic cystic fibrosis (CF) twin pairs of whom 14 pairs were homozygous for the most common p.Phe508del CFTR mutation were selected from the European Cystic Fibrosis Twin and Sibling Study Cohort. The monozygotic twins were examined in their

Preverbal Language Abilities in Monozygotic and Dizygotic Twins [PDF]

, 2007
This study examined prelinguistic language development of twins by delineating: differences from developmental expectations; twin-twin communication and twin-mother communication differences; and monozygotic-dizygotic differences.
