Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we investigated the relationship between the genetic variants of disease candidate gene and the pathological phenotype information using Japanese elderly consecutive autopsy cases.Several single nucleotide variations (SNVs) and copy number variants (CNVs) were retrieved from genotyping by TaqMan Assay system and Illumina exome-chip in about 2000 Japanese elderly consecutive autopsy cases. All subjects met well-determined genotyping results and appropriate availability of their clinical history including pathological phenotype information. We were observed for the novel association between some genetic variants and cardiovascular disease or any type of cancer in this study population. This is the first study analyzing the relationship between genetic variants and pathological diagnosis diseases in this study population. Future longitudinal studies are warranted to characterize the mechanisms by each genetic variant may affect the development of diseases.
