Analysis of SNP (single nucleotide polymorphism) multiplex markers related to sudden cardiac death in Brazilian families
Authors: D.F. Braganholi1,2 and R.M.B. Cicarelli1
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) is a major public health concern worldwide, and genetic analysis may be useful in identifying the cause of death as well as in determining the possible genetic risk factors for SCD. This study analyzed eight SNPs (single nucleotide polymorphisms) highly correlated with cardiac sudden death in samples (blood and bone) from six Br.. Read More»

Relationship between HLA-DP gene polymorphisms and the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma: a meta-analysis
Authors: X. Zhang, C. Zheng, Z.H. Zhou, M. Li, Y.T. Gao, S.G. Jin,X.H. Sun, Y.Q. Gao
The association between the HLA-DP single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) rs3077 and rs9277535 and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) has been reported, but results have been inconclusive and controversial. Therefore, to investigate the relationship between these HLA-DP SNPs and HCC susceptibility, a meta-analysis of studies publi.. Read More»

Association of the LMNA gene single nucleotide polymorphism rs4641 with dilated cardiomyopathy
Authors: J. Yin, J. Yang, F.X. Ren, C.M. Sun, L.D. Li, L.Y. Han, S.L. Cai, C.H. Zhang, Z.Q. Zhang, Z.T. Zhang and H. Wang
Recently, studies on the pathogenesis of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) have focused on the underlying molecular biology and the association between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and disease. This study was designed to explore the association between the rs4641 SNP of the LMNA gene and DCM in order to identify a new gen.. Read More»

Genetic polymorphisms in very important pharmacogenomic (VIP) variants in the Tibetan population
Authors: T.B. Jin, X.J. Xun, X.G. Shi, D.Y. Yuan, T. Feng, T.T. Geng and L.L. Kang
Genetic polymorphisms of very important pharmacogenomic (VIP) variants are important for personalized medicine. However, these have not been extensively studied in the Tibetan population. In this study, 82 VIP variants were detected in the Tibetan and Han (HAN) populations from northwestern China. Subsequently, we compared the.. Read More»

A genome-wide analysis of the ultimate pH in swine
Authors: H.Y. Chung, K.T. Lee, G.W. Jang, J.G. Choi, J.G. Hong and T.H. Kim
Meat pH is an important factor influencing meat quality traits in swine. This study evaluated a large number of genetic variants that covered all of the swine chromosomal regions. Approximately 68,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), found on Illumina Porcine SNP chips, were tested for associations with meat pH values. .. Read More»

Haplo-block structure of Southern African village chicken populations inferred using genome-wide SNP data
Authors: K.S. Khanyile, E.F. Dzomba and F.C. Muchadeyi
This study investigated the haplo-block structure, haplotype sharing, and diversity in extensively raised chicken populations of Southern Africa. Two hundred ninety village chickens from Malawi (N = 30), South Africa (N = 132), and Zimbabwe (N = 128) were included in the study, from which 649, 2104, and 2442 haplo-blocks were .. Read More»

Authors: P.W. Ong, I. Maizura, N.A.P. Abdullah, M.Y. Rafii, L.C.L. Ooi, E.T.L. Low and R. Singh
The genetic evaluation of oil palm germplasm collections is required for insight into the variability among populations. The information obtained is also useful for incorporating new genetic materials into current breeding programs. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been widely used in many plant genetic studies due .. Read More»
