Genetic risk factors for ischaemic stroke and its subtypes (the METASTROKE coll...
Traylor, M.; Farrall, M.; Holliday, E.G.; Sudlow, C.; Hopewell, J.C.; Cheng, Y.C.; Fornage, M.; Ikram, M.A.; Malik, R.; Bevan, S.; Thorsteinsdottir, U.Various genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been done in ischaemic stroke, identifying a few loci associated with the disease, but sample sizes have been 3500 cases or less. We established the METASTROKE collaboration with the aim of validating associations from previous GWAS and identifying novel genetic associations through meta-analysis of GWAS datasets for ischaemic stroke and its subtypes.
Association of a genetic variant in the ALOX5AP with higher risk of ischemic st...
Domingues-Montanari, S.; Fernández-Cadenas, I.; Del Rio-Espinola, A.; Corbeto, N.; Krug, T.; Manso, H.; Gouveia, L.; Sobral, J.; Mendioroz, M.Variants in the 5-lipoxygenase-activating protein (ALOX5AP) and phosphodiesterase 4D (PDE4D) genes have first been associated with ischemic stroke (IS) through whole-genome linkage screens. However, association studies obtained conflicting results. We aimed to investigate the contribution of selected single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in these genes for the first time in a large Iberian population.
