Journal ArticleDOI

Common genetic variants in the CLDN2 and PRSS1-PRSS2 loci alter risk for alcohol-related and sporadic pancreatitis

David C. Whitcomb, +201 more
- 01 Dec 2012 - 
TL;DR: Two associations at genome-wide significance identified and replicated at PRSS1-PRSS2 and X-linked CLDN2 are reported and could partially explain the high frequency of alcohol-related pancreatitis in men.
Book ChapterDOI

Calcium-Binding Proteins and the Molecular Basis of Calcium Action

TL;DR: This chapter discusses the ways in which calcium is bound to a protein as well as the role of calcium in protein function, and the proposed roles for calcium and the postulated calcium-binding sites are based on homology with concanavalin A (Con A).
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of multiple genetic loci on age at onset in late-onset Alzheimer disease: a genome-wide association study.

Adam C. Naj, +183 more
- 01 Nov 2014 - 
TL;DR: The combined effects of Alzheimer disease risk variants on AAO are on the scale of, but do not exceed, the APOE effect, and additional genetic contributions toAAO are individually likely to be small.
Journal ArticleDOI

"New Old Pathologies": AD, PART, and Cerebral Age-Related TDP-43 With Sclerosis (CARTS).

TL;DR: This review provides an overview of current hypotheses about how genetic risk factors, and other pathogenetic influences contribute to TDP-43 pathology and hippocampal sclerosis and suggests a neuropathology-based diagnostic rubric for CARTS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neurotrophic activity of S-100β in cultures of dorsal root ganglia from embryonic chick and fetal rat

TL;DR: S-100 beta elicited neurites from explant and dissociated cell cultures of embryonic chick DRG, and the extent of the response varied with the age of the embryo, suggesting that S-100beta may play a role in neuronal growth and/or maintenance in the peripheral nervous system.
