TL;DR: The 4 new risk loci for AAA seem to be specific for AAA compared with other cardiovascular diseases and related traits suggesting that traditional cardiovascular risk factor management may only have limited value in preventing the progression of aneurysmal disease.
A sequence variant associated with sortilin-1 (SORT1) on 1p13.3 is independently associated with abdominal aortic aneurysm

TL;DR: A genetic marker associated with cardiovascular risk factors, and in particular concurrent vascular disease, appeared to independently contribute to susceptibility for AAA, given the potential genetic overlap between risk factor and disease phenotypes.

Post-translational modification of low molecular mass GTP-binding proteins by isoprenoid.
TL;DR: The observed isoprenoid-dependent carboxyl methylation of a group of 21-26-kDa proteins suggests that the low molecular mass GTP-binding proteins may undergo a series of post-translational C-terminal cysteine modifications analogous to those recently elucidated for p21ras.

High allelic burden of four obesity SNPs is associated with poorer weight loss outcomes following gastric bypass surgery.
Christopher D. Still,G. Craig Wood,Xin Chu,Robert Erdman,Christina Manney,Peter N. Benotti,Anthony T. Petrick,William E. Strodel,Uyenlinh L. Mirshahi,Tooraj Mirshahi,David J. Carey,Glenn S. Gerhard +11 more
TL;DR: Response to a surgical weight loss intervention is influenced by genetic susceptibility and BMI, and linear mixed regression analysis revealed significant differences in postoperative weight loss trajectories across groups with low, intermediate, and high numbers of obesity SNP alleles or numbers of homozygous SNP genotypes.

TL;DR: Increased BMI in morbid obesity is associated with a combination of FTO and INSIG2 SNPs.
