Genome-wide association study meta-analysis of European and Asian-ancestry samples identifies three novel loci associated with bipolar disorder
Meta-analyses of bipolar disorder (BD) genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified several genome-wide significant signals in European-ancestry samples, but so far account for little of the inherite...

Maternal but not paternal transmission of 15q11–13–linked nondeletion Angelman syndrome leads to phenotypic expression
Angelman syndrome (AS) may result from either maternally inherited deletions of chromosome 15q11–13 or from paternal uniparental disomy for chromosome 15. This is in contrast to Prader–Willi syndrome (PWS), wh...
