A Genome-Wide Association Study Identifies New Psoriasis Susceptibility Loci and an Interaction Between HLA-C and ERAP1

Amy Strange, +85 more
- 01 Nov 2010 - 
TL;DR: These findings implicate pathways that integrate epidermal barrier dysfunction with innate and adaptive immune dysregulation in psoriasis pathogenesis and report compelling evidence for an interaction between the HLA-C and ERAP1 loci.
Journal ArticleDOI

Identification of 15 new psoriasis susceptibility loci highlights the role of innate immunity

Lam C. Tsoi, +215 more
- 01 Dec 2012 - 
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies and independent data sets genotyped on the Immunochip identified 15 new susceptibility loci, increasing to 36 the number associated with psoriasis in European individuals, and identified five independent signals within previously known loci.

Cloning and characterization of seven human forkhead proteins: binding site specificity and DNA bending.

TL;DR: A circular permutation assay shows that binding of FREAC proteins to their cognate sites results in bending of the DNA at an angle of 80‐90 degrees, and identifies two subregions within the forkhead domain as responsible for creating differences in DNA binding specificity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Stress and well-being among parents of children with rare diseases: a prospective intervention study.

TL;DR: High parental stress, physical and emotional strain among mothers, especially among single mothers, was found, and decreased strain was found among full-time working mothers and fathers after the intervention.
