Familial Hemiplegic Migraine and Episodic Ataxia Type-2 Are Caused by Mutations in the Ca2+ Channel Gene CACNL1A4

TL;DR: A brain-specific P/Q-type Ca2+ channel alpha1-subunit gene, CACNL1A4, covering 300 kb with 47 exons is characterized, revealing polymorphic variations, including a (CA)n-repeat (D19S1150), a (CAG) n-repeat in the 3'-UTR, and different types of deleterious mutations in FHM and EA-2.
Journal ArticleDOI

A genome-wide association study of Hodgkin's lymphoma identifies new susceptibility loci at 2p16.1 ( REL ), 8q24.21 and 10p14 ( GATA3 )

TL;DR: The role of the major histocompatibility complex in disease etiology is confirmed by revealing a strong human leukocyte antigen (HLA) association and new insight is provided into the pathogenesis of cHL.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid KRAS, EGFR, BRAF and PIK3CA mutation analysis of fine needle aspirates from non-small-cell lung cancer using allele-specific qPCR.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that these standard molecular techniques can be accurately applied on fine needle cytological aspirates from NSCLC patients and show that all mutations detected in the histological material of primary tumor were also identified in the cytological samples.
Journal ArticleDOI

Familial hemiplegic migraine locus on 19p13 is involved in the common forms of migraine with and without aura.

TL;DR: Familial clustering and sibpair analysis showed that affected sibs shared the same marker allele more frequently than expected by chance, suggesting the involvement of a gene on 19p13 in the etiology of the common forms of migraine.
