Journal ArticleDOI
Genome scan of schizophrenia
Douglas F. Levinson,Melanie M. Mahtani,Derek J. Nancarrow,Donna M. Brown,Leonid Kruglyak,Andrew Kirby,Nicholas K. Hayward,Raymond R. Crowe,Nancy C. Andreasen,Donald W. Black,Jeremy M. Silverman,Jean Endicott,Lawrence Sharpe,Richard C. Mohs,Larry J. Siever,Marilyn K. Walters,David P. Lennon,Helen L. Jones,Deborah A. Nertney,Mark J. Daly,Madeline Gladis,Bryan J. Mowry +21 more
TL;DR: The results do not support the hypothesis that a single gene causes schizophrenia susceptibility genes, and a genomewide map of 310 microsatellite DNA markers was genotyped in 269 individuals with schizophrenia-related psychoses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mutation analysis of the MEN1 gene in multiple endocrine neoplasia type 1, familial acromegaly and familial isolated hyperparathyroidism

Salmela +40 more
TL;DR: No mutation was found in any of the acromegaly and small FIHP families, suggesting that genetic defects other than the MEN1 gene might be involved and that additional such families need to be analyzed.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Results are interpreted as inconclusive but suggestive of linkage in the latter two regions, and it is concluded that multicenter follow-up linkage studies of complex disorders can help to direct research efforts toward promising regions.
Journal Article
CDKN2A/p16 is inactivated in most melanoma cell lines.
Marina Castellano,Pamela M. Pollock,Marilyn K. Walters,Louise E. Sparrow,Louise M. Down,Brian Gabrielli,Peter G. Parsons,Nicholas K. Hayward +7 more
TL;DR: Data indicate that 55 of 60 melanoma cell lines demonstrated some aberration of CDKN2A or CDK4, thus suggesting that this pathway is a primary genetic target in melanoma development.
Journal ArticleDOI
A genome scan of schizophrenia
Douglas F. Levinson,Melanie M. Mahtani,Donna M. Brown,Derek J. Nancarrow,Andrew Kirby,Mark J. Daly,Raymond R. Crowe,Nancy C. Andreasen,Jeremy M. Silverman,Richard C. Mohs,Jean Endicott,Lawrence Sharpe,Marilyn K. Walters,David P. Lennon,Nicholas K. Hayward,Leonid Kruglyak,Bryan J. Mowry +16 more
TL;DR: The results do not support the hypothesis that a single gene causes a large increase in the risk of schizophrenia, and multicenter studies may be useful in the effort to identify chromosomal regions most likely to contain schizophrenia susceptibility genes.
