Around 20 susceptibility loci for type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) have been mapped. One of these loci, IDDM10, was found on chromosome 10p11-q11. Here, we investigated whether the IDDM10 locus contributes in the susceptibility to T1DM in a Russian family dataset. One hundred and fourteen simplex Russian families, each containing two siblings (one affected with T1DM diagnosed and one nondiabetic sibling), and 97 multiplex families, containing 106 affected full sibling pairs, were studied. Genomic DNA from the venous blood of the patients was genotyped by PCR using 12 microsatellites (D10S193, D10S548, D10S565, D10S586, D10S588, D10S675, D10S1243, D10S1426, D10S1733, D10S1772, D10S1780 and D10S1783) located on chromosome 10p11-q11. Using the multipoint linkage analysis, the region of suggestive linkage, with a multipoint logarithm of odds (LOD) ratio (MLS) value of more than 2.2, was found between markers D10S1733 and D10S1780, an area of 9.0 cM on the genetic map. The maximum linkage peak (MLS = 2.85 and nonparametric logarithm = 2.68) was observed between markers D11S565 and D11S1243. Using the transmission disequilibrium test, an association of these markers, D10S565 (P overall = 0.0082) and D10S1243 (P overall = 0.017), with T1DM was shown. These results suggest the evidence for the IDDM10 susceptibility locus on chromosome 10p11-q11.

Objective: Despite many studies into the genetics of bipolar disorder (BP), the molecular causes underlying susceptibility to BP remain unclear. The aim of this study was to identify chromosomal regions linked to BP in a new Australian extended pedigree cohort.
Methods: We have conducted a parametric genome-wide linkage scan on 15 previously unreported Australian extended families with BP and related affective disorders, comprising 63 affected and 158 nonaffected individuals.

IDDM10 on chromosome 10p11-q11 has been identified as a putative diabetes susceptibility locus through affected sib-pair (ASP) linkage analysis in UK nuclear families [Davies et al., 1994: Nature 371:130-136; Reed et al., 1997: Hum Mol Genet 6:1011-1016; Mein et al.

A region of linkage to type 1 diabetes has been defined on human chromosome 10p11-q11 (IDDM10; P = 0.0007) using 236 UK and 76 US affected sibpairs and a 1 cM resolution microsatellite marker map. Analysis by the transmission disequilibrium test (TDT) in 1159 families with at least one diabetic child, from the UK, the US, Norway, Sardinia and Italy provided additional support for linkage at D10S193 (P = 0.
