A targeted genome association study examining transient receptor potential ion channels, acetylcholine receptors, and adrenergic receptors
Research abstract: BACKGROUND: Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, also known as Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (CFS/ME) is a debilitating condition of unknown aetiology. It is characterized by a range of physiological effects including neurological, sensory and motor disturbances. This study examined candidate genes for … Continue reading

Natural killer cell & SNP dysfunction in ME/CFS
Research abstract: Aim: The aim of this paper was to determine natural killer (NK) cytotoxic activity and if single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and genotypes in transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels and acetylcholine receptors (AChRs) were present in isolated NK … Continue reading

Genes disrupt signalling mechanisms in CFS
Research abstract: Background: The transient receptor potential (TRP) superfamily in humans comprises 27 cation channels with permeability to monovalent and divalent cations. These channels are widely expressed within humans on cells and tissues and have significant sensory and regulatory roles … Continue reading
