A genome-wide association study identifies an osteoarthritis susceptibility locus on chromosome 7q22.

OBJECTIVE: To identify novel genes involved in osteoarthritis (OA), by means of a genome-wide association study. METHODS: We tested 500,510 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 1,341 Dutch Caucasian OA cases and 3,496 Dutch Caucasian controls. SNPs associated with at least 2 OA phenotypes were...
