## Abstract ## Objective Giant cell arteritis (GCA) is the most common type of primary vasculitis. Matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMPβ9) is present in arterial lesions of GCA and may be involved in its pathogenesis. We investigated whether certain genotypes of 4 singleβnucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs)

## Abstract A recent wholeβgenome association study identified a strong association between polymorphisms in the prostate stem cell antigen (PSCA) gene and stomach cancer risk. In this caseβcontrol study, we aimed to validate this association, and further to explore environmental factors possibly i
## Abstract Interferon alpha (IFNβΞ±) therapy is currently the treatment of choice for chronic hepatitis C (HCV) infection, but it fails to achieve a sustained response in approximately 75% of those treated. The factors which determine whether or not an individual will respond to IFNβΞ± are uncertain
## Summary Breeding for disease resistance to __Salmonella enteritidis__ (SE) could be an effective approach to control __Salmonella__ in poultry. The candidate gene approach is a useful method to investigate genes that are involved in genetic resistance. In this study, 12 candidate genes that are
