A high-density association screen of 155 ion transport genes for involvement with common migraine (2008)

Nyholt, Dale R., LaForge, K. Steven, Kallela, Mikko, Alakurtti, Kirsi, Anttila, Verneri, Färkkilä, Markus, ...

The clinical overlap between monogenic Familial Hemiplegic Migraine (FHM) and common migraine subtypes, and the fact that all three FHM genes are involved in the transport of ions, suggest that ion...

Low birth weight does not increase the risk of nephropathy in Finnish type 1 diabetic patients (2006)

Fagerudd, Johan, Forsblom, Carol, Pettersson-Fernholm, Kim, Saraheimo, Markku, Wadén, Johan, Rönnback, Mats, ...

Background. Low birth weight (LBW) has been linked to renal disease both in animal models and human studies. However, the role of birth weight in the development of diabetic nephropathy is unclear....

Mapping ESTs by Fiber–FISH

Horelli-Kuitunen, Nina, Aaltonen, Johanna, Yaspo, Marie-Laure, Eeva, Mervi, Wessman, Maija, Peltonen, Leena, ...

A visual transcript map of six genes was constructed on the chromosome 21q22.3 by high resolution fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). Expressed sequence tags (ESTs) from six genes—PWP2,...

Quantitative-Trait-Locus Analysis of Body-Mass Index and of Stature, by Combined Analysis of Genome Scans of Five Finnish Study Groups

Perola, Markus, Öhman, Miina, Hiekkalinna, Tero, Leppävuori, Jenni, Pajukanta, Päivi, Wessman, Maija, ...

In recent years, many genomewide screens have been performed, to identify novel loci predisposing to various complex diseases. Often, only a portion of the collected clinical data from the study...

Assignment of a Novel Locus for Autosomal Recessive Congenital Ichthyosis to Chromosome 19p13.1-p13.2

Virolainen, Elina, Wessman, Maija, Hovatta, Iiris, Niemi, Kirsti-Maria, Ignatius, Jaakko, Kere, Juha, ...

Autosomal recessive congenital ichthyosis (ARCI) is a rare, clinically and genetically heterogeneous genodermatosis. One gene (transglutaminase 1, on 14q11) and one additional locus (on 2q33-35, with...

A Susceptibility Locus for Migraine with Aura, on Chromosome 4q24

Wessman, Maija, Kallela, Mikko, Kaunisto, Mari A., Marttila, Pia, Sobel, Eric, Hartiala, Jaana, ...

Migraine is a complex neurovascular disorder with substantial evidence supporting a genetic contribution. Prior attempts to localize susceptibility loci for common forms of migraine have not produced...

Consistently Replicating Locus Linked to Migraine on 10q22-q23

Anttila, Verneri, Nyholt, Dale R., Kallela, Mikko, Artto, Ville, Vepsäläinen, Salli, Jakkula, Eveliina, ...

Here, we present the results of two genome-wide scans in two diverse populations in which a consistent use of recently introduced migraine-phenotyping methods detects and replicates a locus on...
