First Evidence of Genetic Association Between AKT2 and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
TL;DR: Data suggest that polymorphisms in two components of the insulin signaling pathway, AKT2 and GSK3B, are associated with PCOS, and the presence of multiple lesions in a single pathway may confer increased risk.

TL;DR: The interplay between promoter SNPs of CD39 and FAM134B results in an intercellular epistasis which influences the risk of a complex inflammatory disease.

Finding genes underlying human disease
TL;DR: The approaches used in mapping human disease genes are surveyed, reviewing the analysis strategies that preceded and laid the groundwork for GWAS and noting that earlier approaches are still useful and the development of new methodology is warranted.

TL;DR: Analysis of the background SNP haplotypes suggests that the increased frequency of chromosomes carrying A538T mutations in Polish patients may reflects local (Polish or Slavic) founder effect, and results of the MLPA analysis indicate that no large exonic deletions are involved in PCD pathogenesis.

TL;DR: Polymorphisms of genes on the adaptive immunity pathway are associated with childhood ALL risk and were stronger among firstborn children of all ethnicities and among non-Hispanic children with less day care attendance, consistent with the hypothesis about the role of early immune modulation in the development of childhood ALL.
