11318791 Observational study of genotype prevalence and gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
12588049 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
12679865 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)

15878744 Observational study of gene-disease association. (HuGE Navigator)
16950544 Observational study of genotype prevalence. (HuGE Navigator)
17911343 Findings indicate the pancreatic beta-cell toxic effects of hIAPP depend on the propensity of IAPP to aggregate, but not on the consequence of protein overexpression.
17722920 findings show that the I26P point mutatnt had a profound effect on the ability of hIAPP to form amyloid; the I26P point mutant was also a potent inhibitor of wild-type fibrillization
17804609 Using IAPP transgenic mice, interventions that decreased both glycosaminoglycan synthesis and O-linked protein glycosylation reduced islet amyloid formation.
17660321 Dynamic conformational changes observed for negatively charged lipid interfaces play an important role as the first steps of IAPP-induced membrane damage in type II diabetes.
