摘要:
The present invention is characterized by certain genetic variants being susceptibility variants for prostate cancer. The invention relates to methods of determining increased susceptibility to prostate cancer, as well as methods of determining decreased susceptibility to prostate cancer, using such variants. The invention further relates to kits for determining a susceptibility to prostate cancer.
摘要:
The invention relates to variants that predispose to risk of type 2 diabetes, basal cell carcinoma and breast cancer. It has been discovered that certain genetic variants confer risk of these diseases when inherited from one parent, but not the other. The invention provides methods of disease management, including diagnostic methods, utilizing such parental origin effects.
摘要:
The invention relates to procedures and methods of determining a susceptibility to certain vascular conditions, including Atrial Fibrillation, Atrial Flutter and Stroke, by assessing the presence or absence of alleles at polymorphic markers found to be associated with these conditions. The invention further relates to kits encompassing reagents for assessing such markers, and diagnostic methods, uses and procedures for utilizing such markers.

摘要:
The invention relates to methods of risk assessment and diagnosis of susceptibility to coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction, by assessing the presence or absence of alleles of certain polymorphic markers found to be associated with coronary artery disease and myocardial infarction. The invention also relates to methods for use of such polymorphic markers for predicting drug response to drugs for treating cardiovascular disease, or for monitoring the effectiveness of such drugs. The invention further relates to kits encompassing reagents for use in these methods.
摘要:
The present inventions discloses genetic markers and haplotypes that have been found to be associated with risk of Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS), Periodic Limb Movement Disorder (PLMD), and Periodic Limb Movements of Sleep (PLMS). Methods for determination of susceptibility of these disorders are disclosed using such markers, as are kits useful in such determination.
