IFITM3 and Susceptibility to Respiratory Viral Infections in the Community

TL;DR: Evidence is found of an association between rs12252 rare allele homozygotes and susceptibility to mild influenza (in patients attending primary care) but could not confirm a previously reported association between this single-nucleotide polymorphism and susceptible to severe H1N1 infection.
Journal ArticleDOI

Objective prioritization of positional candidate genes at a quantitative trait locus for pre-eclampsia on 2q22

TL;DR: An objective prioritization strategy that integrates quantitative bioinformatics, assessment of differential gene expression and association analysis of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) was applied, and highest priority was assigned to the activin receptor gene ACVR2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association study to identify common variants associated with brachial circumference: A meta-analysis of 14 cohorts

Vesna Boraska, +76 more

TL;DR: This first GWAS meta-analysis for BC has not identified any genome-wide significant signals and do not observe robust association of previously established obesity loci with BC, suggesting large-scale collaborations will be necessary to achieve higher power to detect loci underlying BC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Early-onset autoimmunity associated with SOCS1 haploinsufficiency

TL;DR: Heterozygous, autosomal-dominant, germline loss-of-function mutations in the SOCS1 gene in ten patients from five unrelated families with early onset autoimmune manifestations causes a dominantly inherited predisposition toEarly onset autoimmune diseases related to cytokine hypersensitivity of immune cells.
