Joe, Bina, Saad, Yasser, Lee, Norman H., Frank, Bryan C., Achinike, Ovokeraye H., Luu, Truong V., ...

A previously reported blood pressure (BP) quantitative trait locus on rat Chromosome 1 was isolated in a short congenic segment spanning 804.6 kb. The 804.6 kb region contained only two genes,...

Genome-Wide Association Scan Shows Genetic Variants in the FTO Gene Are Associated with Obesity-Related Traits (2007)

Angelo Scuteri, Serena Sanna, Wei-Min Chen, Manuela Uda, Giuseppe Albai, James Strait, ...

The obesity epidemic is responsible for a substantial economic burden in developed countries and is a major risk factor for type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease. The disease is the result not...

An ancestral variant of Secretogranin II confers regulation by PHOX2 transcription factors and association with hypertension (2007)

Wen, Gen, Wessel, Jennifer, Zhou, Weidong, Ehret, Georg B., Rao, Fangwen, Stridsberg, Mats, ...

Granins regulate secretory vesicle formation in neuroendocrine cells and granin-derived peptides are co-released with neurotransmitters as modulatory signals at sympathetic sites. We report evidence...
