  • Fragile X Gene Stability in Basque Valleys

    I Arrieta, I González De Arrieta et al.ARTICLEHuman Biology2008References: 2

    Fragile X syndrome is the most common form of inherited mental retardation. The molecular basis is usually the unstable expansion of a CGG repeat in the FMR1 gene. We previously analyzed a sample of two Basque valleys. In the present work we extend the study to another five isolated valleys. The results show that differences in factors implicated in CGG repeat instability--CGG repeat size, XS548/FRAXAC1 haplotypes, and AGG interspersion pattern-a…

  • Cytogenetics of autosomal fragile sites

    Open AccessM I Arrieta, E Echarri et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Human Biology1996

    Population cytogenetic data on autosomal fragile sites show differences among different ethnic groups. The Basques are an ancient population; their origin is not exactly known and many studies using several traits have shown peculiarities in the Basques. This is the first study about the incidence of autosomal fragile sites in a healthy Basque sample. The results show interindividual variability, no sex differences at a global level, but differen…

  • Fluctuating dermatoglyphic asymmetry

    Open AccessM I Arrieta, B Criado et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology1993

    Genetic and environmental prenatal factors influencing the fluctuating asymmetry of the a-b interdigital ridge count are examined. From the results obtained we can conclude that fluctuating asymmetry of the a-b interdigital ridge count is poorly influenced by genetic factors. We suggest that fluctuating asymmetry of dermatoglyphics provides a good measure of developmental stability in humans, especially for males. The results also indicate that r…

  • Twin study of digital dermatoglyphic traits

    Open AccessM I Arrieta, L Salazar et al.ARTICLEAmerican Journal of Human Biology1991

    Digital patterns of a sample of monozygotic and dizygotic twins were analyzed to obtain heritability values for the four basic types of patterns: arch, tented arch, loops, and whorls. Loops have been separated according to their orientation radial or ulnar. To carry out this study, we used the Holzinger and Clark indices. The results show highest concordances for monozygotic twins except for ulnar loops of the left hand and radial ones of the rig…

  • Characterization of digital dermatoglyphic features in Salazar Valley

    Open AccessM I Arrieta, B Criado et al.ARTICLEAnnals of Human Biology1991

    Digital dermatoglyphics of a sample from the Basque Valley of Salazar, situated in the West of the Pyrenees, were analysed. The results showed bimanual differences in both sexes, and also sexual differences for both hands. The comparative study with other Basque valleys showed that, in spite of their supposed common origin, the geographic barriers and the isolation have generated a genetic/dermatoglyphic and linguistic differentiation

  • Quantitative and qualitative finger dermatoglyphics in the Basque Valley of Urola, Spain

    Maria I Arrieta, B Martinez et al.ARTICLEAnthropologischer Anzeiger1990Cited by: 2

    Digital dermatoglyphics of an indigenous sample of 87 males and 101 females from the Urola Valley in the Spanish Basque Country are compared with those from the nine other Basque valleys previously analyzed. In both sexes of the Urola Valley, there is a very high frequency of radial loops; the mean found in this valley extends the range of variation for South European-Mediterranean populations, and it is in the superior limit of all Caucasian pop…
