    Pathway analysis of genome-wide data improves warfarin dose prediction

    Many genome-wide association studies focus on associating single loci with target phenotypes. However, in the setting of rare variation, accumulating sufficient samples to assess these associations can be diff...

    Alcohol, genetics and risk of breast cancer in the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal and Ovarian (PLCO) Cancer Screening Trial

    We tested the hypothesis that genes involved in the alcohol oxidation pathway modify the association between alcohol intake and breast cancer. Subjects were women aged 55–74 at baseline from the screening arm ...

    Lack of evidence of WNT3A as a candidate gene for congenital vertebral malformations

    Prior investigations have not identified a major locus for vertebral malformations, providing evidence that there is genetic heterogeneity for this condition. WNT3A has recently been identified as a negative regu...

    Small molecule antagonists of the TGF-β1/TGF-β receptor binding interaction

    Excessive and inappropriate action of transforming growth factor (TGF)-β has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several disease processes, especially cancer and fibrosis. To identify antagonists of the TGF...

    Transforming growth factor-β and multidrug resistance in chronic lymphocytic leukemia

    Patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) frequently respond to initial treatment, but then become resistant to chemotherapy. Studies have shown one important cause of chemotherapeutic resistance to be ...
