Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide meta-analysis identifies 56 bone mineral density loci and reveals 14 loci associated with risk of fracture

Karol Estrada, +190 more
- 01 May 2012 - 
TL;DR: Light is shed on the genetic architecture and pathophysiological mechanisms underlying BMD variation and fracture susceptibility and within the RANK-RANKL-OPG, mesenchymal stem cell differentiation, endochondral ossification and Wnt signaling pathways.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metagenomic analysis of respiratory tract DNA viral communities in cystic fibrosis and non-cystic fibrosis individuals.

TL;DR: Functional metagenomics showed that all Non-CF virome communities were similar, and that CF viromes were enriched in aromatic amino acid metabolism, indicating that therapeutic measures may be more effective if used to change the respiratory environment, as opposed to shifting the taxonomic composition of resident microbiota.
Journal ArticleDOI

Brief Report: Intestinal Dysbiosis in Ankylosing Spondylitis

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show evidence for a discrete microbial signature in the terminal ileum of patients with ankylosing spondylitis compared with healthy control subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Grinder: a versatile amplicon and shotgun sequence simulator

TL;DR: Grinder is the first tool to simulate amplicon datasets (e.g. 16S rRNA) widely used by microbial ecologists and is particularly useful for simulating clinical or environmental microbial communities and complements the use of in vitro mock communities.
