Circadian gene variants and susceptibility to type 2 diabetes : a pilot study [PDF]
Background Disruption of endogenous circadian rhythms has been shown to increase the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, suggesting that circadian genes might play a role in determining disease susceptibility.

Mutation Frequency in Main Susceptibility Genes Among Patients With Head and Neck Paragangliomas
Head and neck paragangliomas (HNPGLs) are rare neuroendocrine tumors that have a high degree of heritability and are predominantly associated with mutations in ten genes, such as SDHx, SDHAF2, VHL, RET, NF1, TMEM127, MAX, FH, MEN2, and SLC25A11 ...

Construction and analysis of tag single nucleotide polymorphism maps for six human-mouse orthologous candidate genes in type I diabetes. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: One strategy to help identify susceptibility genes for complex, multifactorial diseases is to map disease loci in a representative animal model of the disorder. The nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse is a model for human type 1 diabetes.

A cross-tissue transcriptome-wide association study reveals novel susceptibility genes for migraine
Background Migraine is a common neurological disorder with a strong genetic component. Despite the identification of over 100 loci associated with migraine susceptibility through genome-wide association studies (GWAS), the underlying causative genes and ...
