Evidence of distinct RELN and TGFB1 genetic associations in familial and non-familial otosclerosis in a British population.

abstract：:In situ hybridization of tritiated cDNA probes for the gene for the B subunit of coagulation factor XIII localized the F13B locus to bands q31-q32.1 on human chromosome 1 and perhaps more precisely to sub-bands 1q31.2 or 1q31.3. Restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) were detected with BglII, EcoRI and XbaI...
