Gene-wide analysis detects two new susceptibility genes for Alzheimer's disease.

Valentina Escott-Price, +194 more
- 12 Jun 2014 - 
TL;DR: The additional genes identified in this study, have an array of functions previously implicated in Alzheimer's disease, including aspects of energy metabolism, protein degradation and the immune system and add further weight to these pathways as potential therapeutic targets in Alzheimers disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-wide association study of glioma subtypes identifies specific differences in genetic susceptibility to glioblastoma and non-glioblastoma tumors

Beatrice Melin, +68 more
- 27 Mar 2017 - 
TL;DR: A meta-analysis of existing GWAS and two new GWAS substantiate that genetic susceptibility to GBM and non-GBM tumors are highly distinct, which likely reflects different etiology.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome-Wide Association Analysis of Young-Onset Stroke Identifies a Locus on Chromosome 10q25 Near HABP2.

Yu-Ching Cheng, +71 more
- 01 Feb 2016 - 
TL;DR: A 2-stage meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies on stroke cases with an age of onset <60 years found that HABP2, which encodes an extracellular serine protease involved in coagulation, fibrinolysis, and inflammatory pathways, may be a genetic susceptibility locus for early-onset stroke.
