A radiation hybrid map of the proximal short arm of the human X chromosome spanning incontinentia pigmenti 1 (IP1) translocation breakpoints
(Elsevier, 1992-11)
Radiation hybrid mapping was used in combination with physical mapping techniques to order and estimate distances between 14 loci in the proximal region of the short arm of the human X chromosome. A panel of radiation ...
Syndrome X: Is it for real?
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1998)
The term syndrome X has been applied to the association of hypertension, non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), android obesity, insulin resistance, and dyslipidemia. In this paper, based on population samples ...
Localization of the Gene for ATP Citrate Lyase (ACLY) Distal to Gastrin (GAS) and Proximal to D17S856 on Chromosome 17q12-q21
(Elsevier, 1994-05-15)
The gene encoding ATP-citrate lyase, designated ACLY, was mapped to human chromosome 17q12-q21 by PCR on a panel of human/rodent somatic cell hybrids and localized to 17q21.1 by PCH on a panel of radiation hybrids. The ...
Localization of the human homolog of the yeast cell division control 27 gene (CDC27) proximal to ITGB3 on human chromosome 17q21.3
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1995-09)
The human homolog of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae cell division control 27 gene (CDC27) was mapped to human chromosome 17q12-q21 using a panel of human/rodent somatic cell hybrids and localized distal to the breast cancer ...
Detection of oxidative mutagens in an urban air-particulate extract: a preliminary study
(Elsevier, 1992-12)
The Ames assays strains TA98 and TA100 have been useful in characterizing complex mixtures from organic solvent extracts of particles from diesel-powered vehicles, ambient air, and other sources. In this paper we report ...
Chronic ethanol consumption depresses hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal function in aged rats
(Elsevier, 1991)
In separate experiments, nine (n=20) and fifteen (n=12) month old rats were treated with either 6% ethanol or 12% sucrose (to balance caloric intake) in the drinking water to examine the effect of chronic ethanol consumption ...
Expression of Pax2 and patterning of the chick inner ear
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1999-10)
Early regionalized gene expression patterns within the otocyst appear to correlate with and contribute to development of mature otic structures. In the chick, the transcription factor Pax2 becomes restricted to the dorsal ...
A Radiation Hybrid Map of the BRCA1 Region of Chromosome 17q12-q21
(Elsevier, 1993-09)
The chromosomal region 17q12-q21 contains a gene (BRCA1) conferring susceptibility to early-onset familial breast and ovarian cancer. An 8000-rad radiation-reduced hybrid (RH) panel was constructed to provide a resource ...
Multipoint Radiation Hybrid Mapping: Comparison of Methods, Sample Size Requirements, and Optimal Study Characteristics
(Elsevier, 1994-05-01)
There are several statistical methods available for analyzing radiation hybrid (RH) data, but little is known about the ordering accuracy we can expect under common study conditions. Using analytic methods and computer ...
Multicolor FISH Mapping with Alu-PCR-Amplified YAC Clone DNA Determines the Order of Markers in the BRCA1 Region on Chromosome 17q12-q21
(Elsevier, 1993-09)
A gene designated BRCA1, implicated in the susceptibility to early-onset familial breast cancer, has recently been localized to chromosome 17q12-q21. To date, the order of DNA markers mapped within this region has been ...
