• Genetic and molecular functional characterization of variants within TNFSF13B, a positional candidate preeclampsia susceptibility gene on 13q 

      Fenstad, Mona Høysæter; Johnson, Matthew; Roten, Linda Tømmerdal; Aas, Per Arne; Forsmo, Siri; Klepper, Kjetil; East, Christine; Abraham, Lawrence j.; Blangero, John; Brennecke, Shaun P.; Austgulen, Rigmor; Moses, Eric K (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010)
      Background: Preeclampsia is a serious pregnancy complication, demonstrating a complex pattern of inheritance. The elucidation of genetic liability to preeclampsia remains a major challenge in obstetric medicine. We have ...
    • Genome-wide association scan identifies a risk locus for preeclampsia on 2q14, near the inhibin, beta B gene 

      Johnson, Matthew P; Brennecke, Shaun P.; East, Christine; Göring, Harald H H; Kent, Jack W; Dyer, Thomas D.; Said, Joanne M; Roten, Linda Tømmerdal; Iversen, Ann-Charlotte; Abraham, Lawrence J; Heinonen, Seppo; Kajantie, Eero; Kere, Juha; Kivinen, Katja; Pouta, Anneli; Laivuori, Hannele; Austgulen, Rigmor; Blangero, John; Moses, Eric K (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)
      Elucidating the genetic architecture of preeclampsia is a major goal in obstetric medicine. We have performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) for preeclampsia in unrelated Australian individuals of Caucasian ancestry ...
