| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The purpose of this study is to reveal the molecular pathophysiology of gender identity disorder. We conducted whole-genome analysis of 96 female-to-male trans-sexual individuals using Japonica array but failed to identify pathogenesis of gender identity disorder. We intend to perform genotype imputation analysis in further study.
