A study of CNVs as trait-associated polymorphisms and as expression quantitative trait loci. [PDF]
We conducted a comprehensive study of copy number variants (CNVs) well-tagged by SNPs (r(2)≥ 0.8) by analyzing their effect on gene expression and their association with disease susceptibility and other complex human traits.

Integrating transcriptomic and genomic studies for the identification of expression quantitative trait loci associated with bovine paratuberculosis [PDF]
The study of the genetic basis underlying the host response to Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) is usually performed using genome-wide association studies (GWAS), which assess the individual association between genotyped markers ...

Genome-Wide Expression Quantitative Trait Loci Analysis Using Mixed Models [PDF]
Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) are important for understanding the genetic basis of cellular activities and complex phenotypes. Genome-wide eQTL analyses can be effectively conducted by employing a mixed model. The mixed model includes random

Expression quantitative trait loci influence DNA damage-induced apoptosis in cancer [PDF]
Background Genomic instability and evading apoptosis are two fundamental hallmarks of cancer and closely linked to DNA damage response (DDR). By analyzing expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) upon cell stimulation (called exposure eQTL (e2QTL)) it ...

Placental expression quantitative trait loci in an East Asian population [PDF]
Summary: Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analysis measures the contribution of genetic variation in gene expression on complex traits. Although this methodology has been used to examine gene regulation in numerous human tissues, eQTL research ...

Single-cell expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analysis of SLE-risk loci in lupus patient monocytes [PDF]
Background We performed expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) analysis in single classical (CL) and non-classical (NCL) monocytes from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) to quantify the impact of well-established genetic risk alleles ...
