Insights into the genetic architecture of osteoarthritis from stage 1 of the arcOGEN study
(2011)
Objectives The genetic aetiology of osteoarthritis has not yet been elucidated. To enable a well-powered genome-wide association study (GWAS) for osteoarthritis, the authors have formed the arcOGEN Consortium, a UK-wide ...
Meta-analyses of genes modulating intracellular T3 bio-availability reveal a possible role for the DIO3 gene in osteoarthritis susceptibility
(2011)
Objective To study whether common genetic variants of the genes involved in the complex regulatory mechanism determining the intracellular bio-availability of T3 influence osteoarthritis onset. Methods In total 17 genetic ...
Meta-analysis of genome-wide association studies confirms a susceptibility locus for knee osteoarthritis on chromosome 7q22
(2011)
Objectives: Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most prevalent form of arthritis and accounts for substantial morbidity and disability, particularly in older people. It is characterised by changes in joint structure, including ...
A genome-wide association study identifies an osteoarthritis susceptibility locus on chromosome 7q22
(2010)
Objective. To identify novel genes involved in osteoarthritis (OA), by means of a genome-wide association study. Methods. We tested 500,510 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 1,341 Dutch Caucasian OA cases and 3,496 ...
A meta-analysis of European and Asian cohorts reveals a global role of a functional SNP in the 5 ' UTR of GDF5 with osteoarthritis susceptibility
(2008)
We have performed a meta-analysis combining data for more than 11 000 individuals. It provides compelling evidence for a positive association between a functional single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) in the 5'-UTR of GDF5 ...
Large replication study and meta-analyses of DVWA as an osteoarthritis susceptibility locus in European and Asian populations
(2009)
Recently, through a genome wide association study in Japanese knee osteoarthritis (OA) cases, a previously unknown gene, DVWA, was identified. The non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs7639618 was subsequently ...
Association of a nsSNP in ADAMTS14 to some osteoarthritis phenotypes
(2009)
Objective: To investigate the effect in OA (Osteoarthritis) susceptibility of putative damaging changes in ADAM (A Disintegrin And Metalloprotease) and ADAMTS (ADAM with ThromboSpondin motif proteases. Methods: Non-synonymous ...
