Hurko O
Eur Neuropsychopharmacol . 2001 Nov; 11(6):491-9. PMID: 11704426
Genomics, the complete tabulation of all the genes in an organism, has made a major impact on the organisation of fully-integrated pharmaceutical companies. Drug discovery begins with bioinformatic elucidation of...

Nat Genet . 2001 May; 28(2):128-9. PMID: 11381258
The NOTCH4 gene was recently reported to be associated with schizophrenia based on TDT analysis of 80 British trios. The strongest evidence for association derived from two microsatellites. We genotyped...

J Pediatr Orthop . 2000 Jul; 20(4):437-41. PMID: 10912597
Diastrophic dysplasia (DD), an autosomal recessive skeletal dysplasia, results in short-limbed short stature, generalized joint dysplasia, and spinal, hand, foot, and ear deformities. Children with DD experience both growth and...

Elmaci I, Ain M, Wright M, Lee R, Sheppard J, Rigamonti D, et al.
J Neurosurg Anesthesiol . 2000 Jul; 12(3):217-20. PMID: 10905569
We report a case of a 35-year-old man with achondroplasia who previously had thoracolumbar decompressive laminectomies, who developed recurrence of spinal stenosis at the thoracolumbar junction. The patient underwent standard...

Ain M, Elmaci I, Hurko O, Clatterbuck R, Lee R, Rigamonti D
J Spinal Disord . 2000 Apr; 13(2):168-73. PMID: 10780694
The characteristics of spinal restenosis in achondroplasia and its treatment are evaluated in this study. Radiologic and surgical findings were correlated to establish the causes of achondroplastic spinal restenosis and...

Am J Med Genet . 1999 Jun; 85(1):53-65. PMID: 10377013
We previously discovered a novel missense mutation (Lys650Met) in the tyrosine kinase domain of the fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) gene in four unrelated individuals with a condition we...
