Centre for Diabetes Research, Western Australian Institute for Medical Research, University of Western Australia, Crawley, Australia
Diabetes 60:1030-40. 2011..Familial clustering of type 1 diabetes has not been explained fully and could arise from many factors, including undetected genetic variation and gene interactions...

Genes Immun 10:S64-8. 2009..2 genotype was more protective, with relative hazard=0.75. We conclude that while there was no major effect of IL12B polymorphisms on T1D susceptibility in the entire study group, they have an impact on a subset of at-risk individuals...

Diabetes Research Centre, Western Australia Institute for Medical Research, Perth, WA, Australia
Tissue Antigens 69:234-6. 2007..01) but also more likely to have this in the same haplotype with the high expressing 3'UTR allele (P= 0.0009). These results suggest these infectious diseases may be improved by modulating IL-l2p40 production...

The University of Western Australia, Perth, WA 6000, Australia
J Autoimmun 31:233-6. 2008..Here, we present preliminary analyses of systems genetics approaches to defining genetic interactions within the thymus, which is the key site for T lymphocyte development and imposition of immunological tolerance...
Effect of linkage status of affected sib-pairs on the search for novel type 1 diabetes susceptibility genes in the HLA complexG Morahan
Western Australian Institute for Medical Research and Centre for Medical Research, University of Western Australia, Perth, Western Australia, Australia
Diabetes Obes Metab 11:67-73. 2009..We investigated whether linkage status at the HLA complex differentially affected transmission of alleles to sibs depending on their HLA or gender linkage status...
