Association study of candidate genes for susceptibility to Kashin-Beck disease in a Tibetan population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Many osteoarthritis (OA) susceptibility genes have been identified in recent years. Given the overlap in the phenotype of joint inflammation between OA and Kashin-Beck disease (KBD), the aim of this study is to explore whether the reported OA

Turning Susceptibility into Strength: A New Era of Durable Resistance in Plants Through Genome Editing

open access: yesPlants
In plants, resistance genes (R) are key players in combatting diseases caused by various phytopathogens. Typically, resistance relies on detecting a single pathogen-derived molecular pattern.

Unifying candidate gene and GWAS Approaches in Asthma. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The first genome wide association study (GWAS) for childhood asthma identified a novel major susceptibility locus on chromosome 17q21 harboring the ORMDL3 gene, but the role of previous asthma candidate genes was not specifically analyzed in this GWAS ...

TERC polymorphisms are associated both with susceptibility to colorectal cancer and with longer telomeres. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Shorter telomeres have been associated with increased risk of malignancy, including colorectal cancer (CRC). Telomere length is heritable and may be an intermediate phenotype linked to genetic susceptibility to ...

Tumor Susceptibility Genes

open access: yesCancer Control, 1998
Cancer develops and progresses as the result of accumulated genetic damage or mutations. These mutations are most commonly described as either oncogenes, which positively regulate cell growth, or tumor suppressor genes, which negatively regulate cell growth.
