We produced more than 200 million genotypes in 553 unique participants. The raw genotypes of all the controls have been posted publicly in a previous study of Parkinson's disease. From this effort, results of genotype and allele association tests have been publicly posted for 88 % of stroke patients who provided proper consent for public release. Preliminary analysis of these data did not reveal any single locus conferring a large effect on risk for ischaemic stroke.
The data generated here comprise the first phase of a genome-wide association analysis in patients with stroke. Release of phase I results generated in these publicly available samples from each consenting individual makes this dataset a valuable resource for data-mining and augmentation.

Kato Abstract mlktScroll""> Significant evidence of linkage to type 2 diabetes (T2D) has been shown in a relatively broad region on chromosome 20q, where the hepatocyte nuclear factor-4α (HNF4A) has been noted as a positional candidate. To systematically evaluate genetic susceptibility to T2D in the relevant region, we examined the disease association by using 1145 SNPs in two-step screening in the Japanese population. The marker screening enabled us to identify significant disease association in the lipopolysaccharide binding protein (LBP) but not in the HNF4A locus. In a 17.7-Mb interval screened, the strongest association was identified for a SNP, rs2232592, located in the intron of LBP, with an estimated odds ratio of 1.73 (95 % CI 1.30–2.31) (P = 0.0002) in the whole study panel involving 675 case and 474 control subjects. Our data suggest that the LBP gene may confer genetic susceptibility to T2D and this warrants further replication study. m/science?_ob=MImg&_imagekey=B6WBK-4NHVCSF-J-4&_cdi=6713&_user=10&_orig=article&_coverDate=06 % 2F15 % 2F2007&_sk=996429995&view=c&wchp=dGLbVzz-zSkWz&md5=33e5c54c0867e62d531af4b31b7c4890&ie=/sdarticle.pdf"">mg name=""pdf"" style=""vertical-align:absmiddle;"" border=""0"" src=""http://www.sciencedirect.com/scidirimg/icon_pdf.gif"" alt=""""> Purchase PDF (207 K) |
