The analysis of 51 genes in DSM-IV combined type attention deficit hyperactivity disorder: association signals in DRD4, DAT1 and 16 other genes.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined 1038 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) spanning 51 candidate genes involved in the regulation of neurotransmitter pathways, particularly dopamine, norepinephrine and serotonin pathways, in addition to circadian rhythm genes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Common variants near ATM are associated with glycemic response to metformin in type 2 diabetes.

TL;DR: It is concluded that ATM, a gene known to be involved in DNA repair and cell cycle control, plays a role in the effect of metformin upstream of AMP-activated protein kinase, and variation in this gene alters glycemic response to meetformin.

Common variants near ATM are associated with glycemic response to metformin in type 2 diabetes

TL;DR: A genome-wide association study for glycemic response to metformin in 1,024 Scottish individuals with type 2 diabetes with replication in two cohorts including 1,783 Scottish individuals and 1,113 individuals from the UK Prospective Diabetes Study.
Journal ArticleDOI

New loci associated with birth weight identify genetic links between intrauterine growth and adult height and metabolism.

Momoko Horikoshi, +174 more
- 01 Jan 2013 - 
TL;DR: The number of loci associated at genome-wide significance to 7, accounting for a similar proportion of variance as maternal smoking, are extended and highlight genetic links between fetal growth and postnatal growth and metabolism.
