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:
Association analysis has shown that certain genetic variants are susceptibility variants for Type 2 diabetes. The invention relates to diagnostic applications of such susceptibility variants, including methods of determining increased susceptibility to Type 2 diabetes, as well as methods of determining decreased susceptibility to Type 2 diabetes in an individual. The invention further relates to kits for determining a susceptibility to Type 2 diabetes based on the variants described herein.

摘要:
A role of the human PDE4D gene in stroke is disclosed. Methods for diagnosis, prediction of clinical course and treatment for stroke using polymorphisms in the PDE4D gene are also disclosed.
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 invention relates to methods of diagnosing a susceptibility to an ocular disorder, including glaucoma and exfoliation syndrome. The invention provides methods of diagnosing an increased or decreased susceptibility to exfoliation syndrome and glaucoma, and methods for risk assessment, treatment and prognosis. The invention further relates to kits for use in the methods of the invention.
摘要:
The invention relates to methods of diagnosing susceptibility to cardiovascular disease, including coronary artery disease. MI, abdominal aorta aneurysm, intracranial aneurysm restenosis and peripheral arterial disease, by assessing the presence or absence of alleles of certain polymorphic markers found to be associated with cardiovascular disease. The invention further relates to kits encompassing reagents for assessing such markers, and methods for assessing the probability of response to therapeutic agents and methods using such markers.
摘要:
Association of Type II diabetes and a locus on chromosome 5q35 is disclosed. In particular, the gene SLIT-3 with this locus is shown by linkage analysis to be a susceptibility gene for Type II diabetes. Pathway targeting for drug delivery and diagnosis applications in identifying those have Type II diabetes or at risk of developing Type II diabetes, in particular those that are non-obese are described.
