GlaxoSmithKline, Harlow, UK
Pharmacogenet Genomics 19:661-5. 2009..Severe cutaneous adverse reactions (SCARs) are associated with over 200 medicines including lamotrigine, an antiepileptic drug. Previous studies have suggested the involvement of immune mechanisms in the development of drug-induced SCARs... - Comparison of association methods for dense marker dataSilviu Alin Bacanu
GlaxoSmithKline, Research Triangle Park, North Carolina 27709, USA
Genet Epidemiol 32:791-9. 2008..We also propose an "exact" method to adjust for multiple testing, which yields nominally higher power than the Bonferroni correction... - Sequencing of Lp-PLA2-encoding PLA2G7 gene in 2000 Europeans reveals several rare loss-of-function mutationsK Song
Department of Genetics, GlaxoSmithKline, Upper Merion, PA, USA
Pharmacogenomics J 12:425-31. 2012..The cumulative frequency of these null alleles was 0.25%, so <1 in 10,000 Europeans would be expected to be homozygous, and thus not potentially benefit from treatment with an Lp-PLA2 inhibitor... - How informative is a negative finding in a small pharmacogenetic study?S A Bacanu
GlaxoSmithKline, Research Triangle Park, NC, USA
Pharmacogenomics J 12:93-5. 2012..This approach permits clearer inferences to be made about the possible range of genetic effects that may be present in, or are likely absent from, small drug studies... - Correlation between genetic and geographic structure in EuropeOscar Lao

Curr Biol 18:1241-8. 2008..By including the widely used CEPH from Utah (CEU) samples into our analysis, we could show that these individuals represent northern and western Europeans reasonably well, thereby confirming their assumed regional ancestry... - Association between a variation in LRCH1 and knee osteoarthritis: a genome-wide single-nucleotide polymorphism association study using DNA poolingTim D Spector
Twin Research and Genetic Epidemiology Unit, St Thomas Hospital, London, UK
Arthritis Rheum 54:524-32. 2006..To perform a large-scale association analysis of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in patients with radiographically defined osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee... - Genome-wide SNP association: identification of susceptibility alleles for osteoarthritisKenneth Abel
