TL;DR: In this article, the authors report genome-wide association meta-analyses and replication for mean bilateral hippocampal, total brain and intracranial volumes from a large multinational consortium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Genetic and Molecular Basis of Drug Resistance and Species-Specific Drug Action in Schistosome Parasites
Claudia L L Valentim,Claudia L L Valentim,Donato Cioli,Frédéric D. Chevalier,Xiaohang Cao,Alexander B. Taylor,Stephen P. Holloway,Livia Pica-Mattoccia,Alessandra Guidi,Annalisa Basso,Isheng J.

TL;DR: Results demonstrate the utility of linkage mapping in a human helminth parasite, while crystallographic analyses of protein-drug interactions illuminate the mode of drug action and provide a framework for rational design of oxamniquine derivatives that kill both S. mansoni and S. haematobium.
Journal ArticleDOI
Data for Genetic Analysis Workshop 18: human whole genome sequence, blood pressure, and simulated phenotypes in extended pedigrees
Laura Almasy,Thomas D. Dyer,Juan M. Peralta,Goo Jun,Andrew R. Wood,Christian Fuchsberger,Marcio Almeida,Jack W. Kent,Sharon P. Fowler,Thomas W. Blackwell,Sobha Puppala,Satish Kumar,Joanne E. Curran,Donna M. Lehman,Gonçalo R. Abecasis,Ravindranath Duggirala,John Blangero +16 more
TL;DR: Genetic Analysis Workshop 18 (GAW18) focused on identification of genes and functional variants that influence complex phenotypes in human sequence data and generated simulated phenotypes that were modeled to have the same trait distributions as the real systolic and diastolic blood pressure data.
Book ChapterDOI
A kernel of truth: statistical advances in polygenic variance component models for complex human pedigrees.
John Blangero,Vincent P. Diego,Thomas D. Dyer,Marcio Almeida,Juan M. Peralta,Jack W. Kent,Jeff T. Williams,Laura Almasy,Harald H H Göring +8 more
TL;DR: A rapid and efficient eigen simplification of the likelihood that makes analysis of family data commensurate with the analysis of a comparable sample of unrelated individuals and reveals potential problems associated with nonpositive semidefinite kernels is developed.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human plasma lipidome is pleiotropically associated with cardiovascular risk factors and death
Claire Bellis,Hemant Kulkarni,Manju Mamtani,Jack W. Kent,Gerard Wong,Jacquelyn M. Weir,Christopher K. Barlow,Vincent P. Diego,Marcio Almeida,Thomas D. Dyer,Harald H H Göring,Laura Almasy,Michael C. Mahaney,Anthony G. Comuzzie,Sarah Williams-Blangero,Peter J. Meikle,John Blangero,Joanne E. Curran +17 more
TL;DR: The human plasma lipidome is heritable and shared genetic influences reduce the dimensionality of the human lipidome into clusters that are associated with risk factors of CVD.
