We identified eight candidate thinness predisposition variants from the Illumina HumanExome chip genotyped on members of pedigrees selected for either healthy thinness or severe obesity. For validation, we tested the candidates for association with healthy thinness in additional pedigree members while accounting for effects of obesity-associated genes: NPFFR2, NPY2R, FTO, and MC4R. Significance was...
Positive evidence has been reported for linkage and association between the upstream stimulatory factor 1 gene (USF1) and familial combined hyperlipidemia (FCHL). We genotyped the two most positive single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) (usf1s1: rs3737787 and usf1s2: rs2073658) from previous studies in a large family sample. This sample included 2,195 subjects in 87 Utah pedigrees ascertained for...
