Failure to replicate an association of SNPs in the oxidized LDL receptor gene (OLR1) with CAD (2008)

Knowles, Joshua W, Assimes, Themistocles L, Boerwinkle, Eric, Fortmann, Stephen P, Go, Alan, Grove, Megan L, ...

Abstract Background The lectin-like oxidized LDL receptor LOX-1 (encoded by OLR1 ) is believed to play a key role in atherogenesis and some reports suggest an association of OLR1 polymorphisms with...

An evaluation of the metabolic syndrome in a large multi-ethnic study: the Family Blood Pressure Program (2005)

Kraja, Aldi T, Rao, DC, Weder, Alan B, Mosley, Thomas H, Turner, Stephen T, Hsiung, Chao, ...

Abstract Background The Family Blood Pressure Program is an ongoing, NHLBI-sponsored, multi-center program to study the genetic determinants of high blood pressure. The goal of this particular study...

T-cell receptor gene rearrangement and expression in human natural killer cells: natural killer activity is not dependent on the rearrangement and expression of T-cell receptor α , β , or γ genes (1988)

Bray, Robert A., Kornbluth, Jacki, Landay, Alan L., Strominger, Jack L., Gebel, Howard, Seidman, Jon G., ...

To test the hypothesis that the T-cell receptor ( Tcr ) λ gene encodes a natural killer (NK) cell receptor molecule, three human NK clones and fresh peripheral blood lymphocytes with NK activity...

Endothelial lipase is a major determinant of HDL level

Ishida, Tatsuro, Choi, Sungshin, Kundu, Ramendra K., Hirata, Ken-ichi, Rubin, Edward M., Cooper, Allen D., ...

A new member of the lipase gene family, initially termed endothelial lipase (gene nomenclature, LIPG; protein, EL), is expressed in a variety of different tissues, suggesting a general role in lipid...

Neovascularization of ischemic tissues by gene delivery of the extracellular matrix protein Del-1

Zhong, Jingping, Eliceiri, Brian, Stupack, Dwayne, Penta, Kalyani, Sakamoto, Gordon, Quertermous, Thomas, ...

The ECM protein Del-1 is one of several novel ECM proteins that accumulate around angiogenic blood vessels in embryonic and tumor tissue and promote angiogenesis in the absence of exogenous growth...

Tree-structured supervised learning and the genetics of hypertension

Huang, Jing, Lin, Alfred, Narasimhan, Balasubramanian, Quertermous, Thomas, Hsiung, C. Agnes, Ho, Low-Tone, ...

This paper is about an algorithm, FlexTree, for general supervised learning. It extends the binary tree-structured approach (Classification and Regression Trees, CART) although it differs greatly in...

Cloning and characterization of developmental endothelial locus-1: An embryonic endothelial cell protein that binds the αvβ3 integrin receptor

Hidai, Chiaki, Zupancic, Thomas, Penta, Kalyani, Mikhail, Adel, Kawana, Masatoshi, Quertermous, Elena E., ...

We have taken advantage of an enhancer trap event in a line of transgenic mice to identify a unique developmentally regulated endothelial cell locus (Del1). The protein encoded in this locus contains...

Apelin signaling antagonizes Ang II effects in mouse models of atherosclerosis

Chun, Hyung J., Ali, Ziad A., Kojima, Yoko, Kundu, Ramendra K., Sheikh, Ahmad Y., Agrawal, Rani, ...

Apelin and its cognate G protein–coupled receptor APJ constitute a signaling pathway with a positive inotropic effect on cardiac function and a vasodepressor function in the systemic circulation....
