Tag SNP selection for Finnish individuals based on the CEPH Utah HapMap database (2006)

Willer, Cristen J., Scott, Laura J., Bonnycastle, Lori L., Jackson, Anne U., Chines, Peter S., Pruim, Randall, ...

The pattern and nature of linkage disequilibrium in the human genome is being studied and catalogued as part of the International HapMap Project [:2003 Nature 426:789–796]. A key goal of the HapMap...

Timing of birth and risk of multiple sclerosis: population based study

Willer, Cristen J, Dyment, David A, Sadovnick, A Dessa, Rothwell, Peter M, Murray, T Jock, Ebers, George C

Objectives To determine if risk of multiple sclerosis (MS) is associated with month of birth in countries in the northern hemisphere and if factors related to month of birth interact with genetic...

Evidence of Linkage with HLA-DR in DRB1*15-Negative Families with Multiple Sclerosis

Ligers, Arturs, Dyment, David A., Willer, Cristen J., Sadovnick, A. Dessa, Ebers, George, Risch, Neil, ...

The importance of the HLA-DR locus to multiple sclerosis (MS) susceptibility was assessed in 542 sib pairs with MS and in their families. By genotyping 1,978 individuals for HLA-DRB1 alleles, we...

Variations in the G6PC2/ABCB11 genomic region are associated with fasting glucose levels

Chen, Wei-Min, Erdos, Michael R., Jackson, Anne U., Saxena, Richa, Sanna, Serena, Silver, Kristi D., ...

Identifying the genetic variants that regulate fasting glucose concentrations may further our understanding of the pathogenesis of diabetes. We therefore investigated the association of fasting...
