Description

We performed a genomewide case-control association study using 23465 highly polymorphic microsattellite(MS) markers that are selected to cover the entire human genome, and identified eleven markers associated with anorexia nervosa (AN). We have completed SNP-based association study to further define a disease susceptibility region on four prioritized loci that contain genes with brain/neuron-related functions, and successfully identified gene(s) or haplotype block (s) associated with AN.
