Plasma HDL cholesterol and risk of myocardial infarction: A mendelian randomisation study

Benjamin F. Voight, +140 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a Mendelian randomisation analysis was performed to compare the effect of HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, and genetic score on risk of myocardial infarction.
Journal ArticleDOI

A comprehensive 1000 Genomes–based genome-wide association meta-analysis of coronary artery disease

Majid Nikpay, +167 more
- 07 Sep 2015 - 
TL;DR: This article conducted a meta-analysis of coronary artery disease (CAD) cases and controls, interrogating 6.7 million common (minor allele frequency (MAF) > 0.05) and 2.7 millions low-frequency (0.005 < MAF < 0.5) variants.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large-scale association analysis identifies 13 new susceptibility loci for coronary artery disease

Heribert Schunkert, +166 more
- 01 Apr 2011 - 
TL;DR: This paper performed a meta-analysis of 14 genome-wide association studies of coronary artery disease (CAD) comprising 22,233 individuals with CAD (cases) and 64,762 controls of European descent followed by genotyping of top association signals in 56,682 additional individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large-scale association analysis identifies new risk loci for coronary artery disease

Panos Deloukas, +204 more
- 01 Jan 2013 - 
TL;DR: An association analysis in CAD cases and controls identifies 15 loci reaching genome-wide significance, taking the number of susceptibility loci for CAD to 46, and a further 104 independent variants strongly associated with CAD at a 5% false discovery rate (FDR).
Journal ArticleDOI

Marrow-Derived Stromal Cells Express Genes Encoding a Broad Spectrum of Arteriogenic Cytokines and Promote In Vitro and In Vivo Arteriogenesis Through Paracrine Mechanisms

TL;DR: In this article, the full spectrum of cytokine genes expressed by marrow stromal cells (MSCs) were characterized using Affymetrix GeneChips representing 12 000 genes.
