Multi‐Tissue Genetic Regulation of RNA Editing in Pigs

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study presents the first multi‐tissue map of RNA editing and its genetic regulation in pigs. By integrating RNA editing profiles, edQTL mapping, GWAS, and cross‐species comparisons, this work establishes RNA editing as a distinct regulatory layer linking genetic variation to complex traits, highlighting its functional and evolutionary significance.

Integrative Genomics Reveals Causal Pleiotropy and Therapeutic Opportunities at the Interface of Acute Pancreatitis and Infection

open access: yesJournal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Understanding the genetic links between acute pancreatitis (AP) and its infectious comorbidities is crucial for prognosis and therapy, yet remains underexplored. Methods We conducted a comprehensive post‐GWAS analysis using large‐scale summary statistics for AP and 16 infectious diseases. To pinpoint pleiotropic genes, we integrated

A mega-analysis of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) provides insight into the regulatory architecture of gene expression variation in liver

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified numerous genetic variants in the human genome associated with diseases and traits. Nevertheless, for most loci the causative variant is still unknown.

Integrative analysis of low- and high-resolution eQTL.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2010
The study of expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) is a powerful way of detecting transcriptional regulators at a genomic scale and for elucidating how natural genetic variation impacts gene expression.

Expression Quantitative Trait Locus Study of Non-Syndromic Cleft Lip with or without Cleft Palate GWAS Variants in Lip Tissues

open access: yesCells, 2022
Non-syndromic cleft lip with or without cleft palate (NSCL/P) is a complex disease with a strong genetic component. More than 40 loci have been identified to be associated with the risk of NSCL/P by genome-wide association studies (GWASs), but the ...

MendelR: A One‐Stop R Toolkit for Mendelian Randomization Analysis

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT MendelR is a fully automated R package specifically developed for Mendelian randomization (MR) studies, designed to address the technical challenges of causal inference in biomedical research. As a powerful causal inference method, Mendelian randomization can effectively reduce confounding bias in observational studies.

Overlap between eQTL and QTL associated with production traits and fertility in dairy cattle

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2019
Background Identifying causative mutations or genes through which quantitative trait loci (QTL) act has proven very difficult. Using information such as gene expression may help to identify genes and mutations underlying QTL.

Bayesian methods for genetic association analysis with heterogeneous subgroups: From meta-analyses to gene-environment interactions

open access: yes, 2014
Genetic association analyses often involve data from multiple potentially-heterogeneous subgroups. The expected amount of heterogeneity can vary from modest (e.g., a typical meta-analysis) to large (e.g., a strong gene--environment interaction). However,

Genetic determinants of co-accessible chromatin regions in activated T cells across humans. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Over 90% of genetic variants associated with complex human traits map to non-coding regions, but little is understood about how they modulate gene regulation in health and disease.
