The membrane-spanning 4-domains, subfamily A (MS4A) gene cluster contains a common variant associated with Alzheimer's diseaseCarmen Antunez
Department of Structural Genomics, Neocodex, Avda, Charles Darwin, Sevilla, s n 41092, Spain
Genome Med 3:33. 2011..In order to identify novel loci associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD), we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) in the Spanish population...
Genetic structure of the Spanish populationJavier Gayan
Department of Structural Genomics, Neocodex, Sevilla, Spain
BMC Genomics 11:326. 2010..Genetic admixture is a common caveat for genetic association analysis. Therefore, it is important to characterize the genetic structure of the population under study to control for this kind of potential bias...

Neocodex, Avda, Charles Darwin 6, ACC, A, 41092 Sevilla, Spain
BMC Genomics 9:360. 2008..Some of these genetic effects may interact in complex ways, proving undetectable by current single-locus methodology...
Association analysis of urotensin II gene (UTS2) and flanking regions with biochemical parameters related to insulin resistanceMaria E Saez
Department of Structural Genomics, Neocodex, Sevilla, Spain
PLoS ONE 6:e19327. 2011..UII exerts a broad spectrum of actions in several systems such as vascular cell, heart muscle or pancreas, where it inhibits insulin release...
WWOX gene is associated with HDL cholesterol and triglyceride levelsMaria E Saez
Departamento de Genomica Estructural, Neocodex, 41092 Sevilla, Spain
BMC Med Genet 11:148. 2010..This gene is located at chromosome 16q23, a region previously linked to familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL) and HDL. Our objective is to perform a genetic association analysis at the WWOX gene region with HDL, TG and TG/HDL ratio...
