silencing of STOX1 or CTNNA3 leads to a change in extravillous trophoblast phenotype toward a non-proliferative cell type in the early placenta
Susceptibility
  • to late-onset Alzheimer disease(LOAD)in females
  • to toluene diisocyanate-induced asthma (TDI)
  • Variant & Polymorphism SNP
  • SNP 4360 and 4783 significatively associated with LOAD in females (SNP exhibited no interaction with the APOE-epsilon4 allele)
  • polymorphism in the 3' downstream region of CTNNA3 (rs1786929), significantly associated with the TDI-induced asthma phenotype
  • Candidate gene
