US Patent:

20070099223, May 3, 2007
Filed:

Oct 30, 2006
Appl. No.:

11/589487
Inventors:

Steven Kittner - Ellicott City MD, US
Qing Song - Decatur GA, US
Braxton Mitchell - Towson MD, US
Jeffrey O'Connell - Ellicott City MD, US
John Cole - Baltimore MD, US
O. Stine - Baltimore MD, US
Gary Gibbons - Atlanta GA, US
International Classification:

C12Q 1/68
US Classification:

435006000
Abstract:

The present invention identifies various risk alleles, particularly a risk allele of SNP rs918592, within the PDE4D gene as novel stroke associated risk markers. These markers may be used for identifying a subject's susceptibility to stroke and diagnosing a subject's susceptibility to a particular type of stroke based on the presence of the risk allele. The markers are found in the human population, particularly the human female population, across different ethnicities. The marker further reveals an environmental impact on a subject's susceptibility to stroke, showing a dose dependent relationship.
