Defense heterosis as a novel plant protection strategy: From theory to breeding practice

open access: yesNew Plant Protection, EarlyView.
Defense heterosis, the enhanced disease resistance of hybrids compared to their parents, has evolved from early observations of hybrid vigor to a novel research concept. Advances are now clarifying its diverse genetic and molecular mechanisms across various plant–pathogen interactions.

Common Genetic Variant Association with Altered HLA Expression, Synergy with Pyrethroid Exposure, and Risk for Parkinson's Disease: An Observational and Case-Control Study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background/objectivesThe common non-coding single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) rs3129882 in HLA-DRA is associated with risk for idiopathic Parkinson's disease (PD).

Identification of genetically predicted protein biomarkers and drug targets for prostate cancer via Mendelian randomization

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Prostate cancer, a leading cause of cancer in men globally, urgently requires improved diagnostic and treatment strategies. This study analyzed large genetic datasets and identified five key proteins (THBD, DST, IFI27L2, OSBPL10, PPP1R14A) that either increase or decrease cancer risk, while also exploring their roles in immune response and potential ...

Spatial Location of SPP1+TAMs and Mutually Exclusive Subsets Based on Single‐Cell and Transcriptome Data

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
This study indicates that SPP1, as an important regulator of tumor progression, is upregulated in various tumors and has been associated with a poor prognosis. SPP1+M2 has a unique spatial location at the forefront of tumor invasion and metastasis, thereby promoting tumor progression. MARCO+M2, which forms a mutually exclusive relationship with SPP1+M2,

Comparison of quantitative trait loci methods: Total expression and allelic imbalance method in brain RNA-seq.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
BackgroundOf the 108 Schizophrenia (SZ) risk-loci discovered through genome-wide association studies (GWAS), 96 are not altering the sequence of any protein. Evidence linking non-coding risk-SNPs and genes may be established using expression quantitative

Accurate modeling of confounding variation in eQTL studies leads to a great increase in power to detect trans-regulatory effects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) studies are an integral tool to investigate the genetic component of gene expression variation. A major challenge in the analysis of such studies are hidden confounding factors, such as unobserved covariates or ...

Genetic regulation of mouse liver metabolite levels. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
We profiled and analyzed 283 metabolites representing eight major classes of molecules including Lipids, Carbohydrates, Amino Acids, Peptides, Xenobiotics, Vitamins and Cofactors, Energy Metabolism, and Nucleotides in mouse liver of 104 inbred and ...
