Journal ArticleDOI

CD14 and toll-like receptor gene polymorphisms, country living, and asthma in adults.

TL;DR: TLR2 and CD14 SNPs were associated with asthma and atopic asthma respectively, andCD14, TLR2,TLR4, and TLR9 SNPs modified associations between country living and asthma.
Journal ArticleDOI

A variant in FTO shows association with melanoma risk not due to BMI

Mark M. Iles, +96 more
- 03 Mar 2013 - 
TL;DR: This is to the authors' knowledge the first study to identify and replicate an association with SNPs in FTO not related to body mass index (BMI) and these SNPs are not in intron 1 (the BMI-related region) and exhibit no association with BMI.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association study of lung function decline in adults with and without asthma.

Medea Imboden, +51 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that genetic determinants of longitudinal and cross-sectional lung function differ and vary by asthma status, and genetic heterogeneity of lung function might be extensive.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association meta-analyses combining multiple risk phenotypes provide insights into the genetic architecture of cutaneous melanoma susceptibility

Maria Teresa Landi, +183 more
- 27 Apr 2020 - 
TL;DR: Analysis of risk estimates across geographical regions and host factors suggests the acral melanoma subtype is uniquely unrelated to pigmentation, and analysis combining nevus count and hair color GWAS results provide insights into the genetic architecture of melanoma.
