Project description:A WTCCC2 project genome-wide association study for bacteraemia susceptibility in 4924 individuals from Kenya, genotyped on the Affymetrix 6.0 array.
Project description:A WTCCC2 project genome-wide association study for pre-eclampsia (PA) in 4375 individuals from Colombia, genotyped on the Affymetrix 6.0 array.
Project description:Mutations in the PTH1R gene were reported but these mutations are limited to a small subgroup of patients. The etiology of Ollier disease is unknown. We therefore undertook genome-wide copy number and loss of heterozygosity (LOH) analysis using Affymetrix SNP 6.0 arrays on 37 tumors of 28 Ollier patients in combination with expression array using Illumina Beadarray v3.0 for 7 tumors of 6 patients. We used Affymetrix SNP 6.0 to find out LOH and copy number alterations in Ollier tumors.
Project description:Reports on common mutations in neuroendocrine tumors (NET) are rare and clonality of NET metastases has not been investigated in this tumor entity yet. We selected a NET and a the corresponding lymph node and liver metastases as well as the derivative cell lines to screen for somatic mutations in the primary NET and to track the fate of genetic changes (by Affymetrix SNP 6.0 micorarray and targeted resequencing by 454 GS FLX) and during metastasis and in vitro progression. using Affymetrix SNP 6.0 Arrays.
Project description:A WTCCC2 project genome-wide association study for reading and mathematics ability in 3665 12-year-old individuals from the UK, genotyped on the Affymetrix 6.0 array. Details of the WTCCC2 analysis can be found in Davis et al. [Nat. Commun. 2014 July;5:4204]
