Targeted Resequencing of Epilepsy Genes: A Pharmaco-Therapeutic Perspective
It has been estimated that more than half of all epilepsies have some genetic basis and over the pastdecade important progresses have been made in the understanding of the genetic causes of many ofthese epilepsies. Single gene defects in ion channels or neurotransmitter receptors are associated withsome inherited forms of epilepsy [1-6]. In addition, genetic discoveries in the field of infantil...
متن کاملTargeted resequencing of candidate genes using selector probes
Targeted genome enrichment is a powerful tool for making use of the massive throughput of novel DNA-sequencing instruments. We herein present a simple and scalable protocol for multiplex amplification of target regions based on the Selector technique. The updated version exhibits improved coverage and compatibility with next-generation-sequencing (NGS) library-construction procedures for shotgu...
متن کاملPharmaco-economics of levosimendan in cardiology: a European perspective.
INTRODUCTION Heart failure places a significant economic burden on health care. Acute heart failure requires hospitalization and often frequent re-hospitalization in expensive wards where vasoactive rescue therapy is often added on top of standard medications. In these lean times, there is a growing need for cost-effective therapeutic options that supply superior support and in addition shorten...
متن کاملAn investigation of obesity susceptibility genes in Northern Han Chinese by targeted resequencing
Our earlier genome-wide linkage study of body mass index (BMI) showed strong signals from 7q36.3 and 8q21.13. This case-control study set to investigate 2 genomic regions which may harbor variants contributed to development of obesity.We employed targeted resequencing technology to detect single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 7q36.3 and 8q21.13 from 16 individuals with obesity. These were c...
متن کاملTargeted capture and resequencing of 1040 genes reveal environmentally driven functional variation in grey wolves.
In an era of ever-increasing amounts of whole-genome sequence data for individuals and populations, the utility of traditional single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) array-based genome scans is uncertain. We previously performed a SNP array-based genome scan to identify candidate genes under selection in six distinct grey wolf (Canis lupus) ecotypes. Using this information, we designed a target...
