Mechanosensitive ion channels convert mechanical stimuli into a flow of ions. These channels
are widely distributed from bacteria to higher plants and humans, and are involved in …

To increase our understanding of the genetic basis of adiposity and its links to cardiometabolic
disease risk, we conducted a genome-wide association meta-analysis of body fat …

We performed a multistage genome-wide association study of melanoma. In a discovery cohort
of 1804 melanoma cases and 1026 controls, we identified loci at chromosomes 15q13.1 (…

In 2020, 146,063 deaths due to pancreatic cancer are estimated to occur in Europe and the
United States combined. To identify common susceptibility alleles, we performed the largest …

To obtain information about the pore characterization during the evolution of sedimentary
organic matter, the pore structures of residual samples from oil-shale hydrous pyrolysis …

Genome-wide association studies of lung cancer reported in populations of European
background have identified three regions on chromosomes 5p15.33, 6p21.33, and 15q25 that …

Mechanosensitive (MS) ion channels are a ubiquitous type of molecular force sensor sensing
forces from the surrounding bilayer. The profound structural diversity in these channels …

We performed a genome-wide association study of melanoma in a discovery cohort of 2,168
Australian individuals with melanoma and 4,387 control individuals. In this discovery phase, …

Recent three genome-wide association studies have mapped a lung cancer susceptibility
locus to chromosome 15q25 in Caucasians. However, the reported risk single nucleotide …
