Schmella M, Ferrell R, Gallaher M, Lykins D, Althouse A, Roberts J, et al.
Biol Res Nurs . 2015 Jan; 17(4):429-37. PMID: 25566792
Background: Hypertriglyceridemia is a risk factor for cardiovascular disease and several pregnancy complications. Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) genetic variation modulates nonpregnancy plasma triglycerides, but its effects during pregnancy are unknown. The...

Creswell K, Wright A, Troxel W, Ferrell R, Flory J, Manuck S
Soc Cogn Affect Neurosci . 2014 Oct; 10(6):869-76. PMID: 25326040
Humans have a fundamental need for strong interpersonal bonds, yet individuals differ appreciably in their degree of social integration. That these differences are also substantially heritable has spurred interest in...

Costacou T, Rosano C, Aizenstein H, Mettenburg J, Nunley K, Ferrell R, et al.
Diabetes . 2014 Sep; 64(2):654-9. PMID: 25213335
Although the haptoglobin (Hp) 1-1 genotype is associated with a lower coronary artery disease (CAD) risk in diabetes, we recently reported an increased stroke incidence in type 1 diabetes with...

Sperry J, Zolin S, Zuckerbraun B, Vodovotz Y, Namas R, Neal M, et al.
Ann Surg . 2014 Sep; 260(4):698-703. PMID: 25203887
Objective(s): Clinical research characterizing the mechanisms responsible for sex-based outcome differences postinjury remain conflicting. We sought to characterize an X chromosome-linked IRAK-1 (IL-1 receptor-associated kinase) polymorphism as an alternative mechanism...

Failla M, Kumar R, Peitzman A, Conley Y, Ferrell R, Wagner A
Neurorehabil Neural Repair . 2014 Jul; 29(3):234-46. PMID: 25063686
Background: Mortality predictions following traumatic brain injury (TBI), and our understanding of TBI pathology, may be improved by including genetic risk in addition to traditional prognostic variables. One promising target...

Costacou T, Secrest A, Ferrell R, Orchard T
Diab Vasc Dis Res . 2014 Jul; 11(5):335-42. PMID: 24994788
Objective: We prospectively evaluated the haptoglobin (Hp)-stroke association in type 1 diabetes and hypothesized that despite increasing the risk of coronary artery disease, the presence of the Hp 2 allele...

Taylor B, Darville T, Ferrell R, Ness R, Kelsey S, Haggerty C
Sex Transm Infect . 2014 May; 90(7):563-6. PMID: 24848367
Objective: Bacterial vaginosis (BV) is a common condition associated with serious complications including pelvic inflammatory disease (PID). However, the pathogenesis of BV is poorly understood. Toll-like receptors (TLR) are responsible...

Gujral S, Manuck S, Ferrell R, Flory J, Erickson K
Psychiatry Res . 2014 Apr; 218(1-2):93-7. PMID: 24745471
The brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) Val66Met single nucleotide polymorphism may be associated with clinical and subsyndromal depression, but physical activity improves mood and increases BDNF expression. The aim of the...

Kantor E, Bayir H, Ren D, Provencio J, Watkins L, Crago E, et al.
J Neurosurg . 2013 Nov; 120(2):386-90. PMID: 24286153
Object: Haptoglobin allele heterogeneity has been implicated in differential reactive oxidant inhibition and inflammation. Haptoglobin α2-α2 has a lower affinity for binding hemoglobin, and when bound to hemoglobin, is cleared...

Allen E, Chen W, Weeks D, Chen F, Hou X, Mattos J, et al.
J Assoc Res Otolaryngol . 2013 Aug; 14(6):791-800. PMID: 23974705
Chronic otitis media with effusion (COME) and recurrent otitis media (ROM) have been shown to be heritable, but candidate gene and linkage studies to date have been equivocal. Our aim...
