Actinic keratoses (AK) are premalignant lesions common on photo-damaged skin that, over time, can progress to squamous cell carcinoma (SCC). A high bacterial load of Staphylococcus aureus is associated with AK and SCC but it is unknown whether this has a direct impact on skin cancer development. To ...
Recent advances in (meta)genomic methods have provided new opportunities to examine host-microbe-environment interactions in the human gut. While opportunities exist to extract DNA from freshly sourced colonic tissue there are potentially valuable sources of DNA from historical studies that might a...

Genome-wide association scan was performed in 1,705 cases of parkinson's genotyped on the Illumina Human 660W SNP array, and 5,175 controls genotyped on the Illumina1.2M-Duo. Analysis was carried out on the overlaps set of SNPs.
