    • Genetic signatures in ischemic stroke: Focus on aspirin resistance 

      Vasudeva, Kanika; Chaurasia, Pratibha; Singh, Sulena; Munshi, Anjana (Bentham Science Publishers B.V., 2017)
      Background and Objective: Stroke is one of the leading causes of death. There has been compelling evidence that stroke has a genetic component. Genetic variants not only influence susceptibility to stroke but have also ...

    • Genome-wide association studies in the Japanese population identify seven novel loci for type 2 diabetes 

      Imamura, M.; Takahashi, A.; Yamauchi, T.; Hara, K.; Yasuda, K.; Grarup, N.; Zhao, W.; Wang, X.; Huerta-Chagoya, A.; Hu, C.; Moon, S.; Long, J.; Kwak, S.H.; Rasheed, A.; Saxena, R.; Ma, R.C.W.; Okada, Y.; Iwata, M.; Hosoe, J.; Shojima, N.; Iwasaki, M.; Fujita, H.; Suzuki, K.; Danesh, J.; J?rgensen, T.; J?rgensen, M.E.; Witte, D.R.; Brandslund, I.; Christensen, C.; Hansen, T.; Mercader, J.M.; Flannick, J.; Moreno-Mac?as, H.; Burtt, N.P.; Zhang, R.; Kim, Y.J.; Zheng, W.; Singh, J.R.; Tam, C.H.T.; H (Nature Publishing Group, 2016)
      Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 80 susceptibility loci for type 2 diabetes (T2D), but most of its heritability still remains to be elucidated. In this study, we conducted a meta-analysis ...

    • PPARG and ADIPOQ gene polymorphisms increase type 2 diabetes mellitus risk in Asian Indian Sikhs: Pro12Ala still remains as the strongest predictor 

      Sanghera, D.K.; Demirci, F.Y.; Been, L.; Ortega, L.; Ralhan, S.; Wander, G.S.; Mehra, N.K.; Singh, J.; Aston, C.E.; Mulvihill, J.J.; Kamboh, I.M. (2010)
      We have examined the association of 14 tagging single nucleotide polymorphisms (tagSNPs) in peroxisome proliferator activated receptor-? transcripts 1 and 2 (PPARG1 and 2) and 5 tagSNPs in adiponectin (ADIPOQ) genes for ...
