A disintegrin and metalloprotease -8 and -15 and susceptibility for ascending aortic dissection

TL;DR: The involvement of ADAM8 and -15 together with inflammation consisting of B-cells may indicate active remodelling of the aortic wall leading to AD.

KLB is associated with alcohol drinking, and its gene product beta-Klotho is necessary for FGF21 regulation of alcohol preference

Gunter Schumann, +126 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors performed the largest genome-wide association metaanalysis and replication study to date (>105,000 individuals) and identified a genetic basis for alcohol consumption during nonaddictive drinking and found that a locus in the gene encoding β-Klotho is associated with alcohol consumption.
Journal ArticleDOI

The interaction between serotonin receptor 2A and catechol-O-methyltransferase gene polymorphisms is associated with the novelty-seeking subscale impulsiveness.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the interaction between dopaminergic and serotonergic genes might underlie impulsiveness and stress the importance of considering novelty seeking as a heterogeneous trait with its subscales having different genetic backgrounds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of long-term hormone replacement therapy on in vivo and in vitro markers of lipid oxidation.

TL;DR: Estrogen and combined HRT do not differ in their abilities to oppose LDL oxidation in vitro or systemic oxidative stress in vivo, but have differential effects on blood lipids.
Journal ArticleDOI

- 13 Dec 2017 - 
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors conducted a genome-wide association (GWA) meta-analysis of fish and EPA+DHA consumption in 17 cohorts of European descent from the CHARGE (Cohorts for Heart and Aging Research in Genomic Epidemiology) Consortium Nutrition Working Group.
