Identification of potential therapeutic targets for problematic alcohol use using multi-omics dataResearch in context

EBioMedicine
Summary: Background: Problematic alcohol use (PAU) is a serious global health issue with limited treatment options. Although genetic studies have identified genomic regions associated with PAU, the specific causal genes and proteins remain unclear. This

A mega-analysis of expression quantitative trait loci in retinal tissue.

PLoS Genetics, 2020
Significant association signals from genome-wide association studies (GWAS) point to genomic regions of interest. However, for most loci the causative genetic variant remains undefined.

Genetic susceptibility loci for cardiovascular disease and their impact on atherosclerotic plaques [PDF]

, 2018
Background: Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease in part caused by lipid uptake in the vascular wall, but the exact underlying mechanisms leading to acute myocardial infarction and stroke remain poorly understood. Large consortia identified

Mapping the Cerebral Organoid Landscape: A Systematic Review of Preclinical 3D Models in Neuroscience

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Cerebral organoids are transforming brain research, yet the field remains fragmented. This comprehensive systematic review maps 738 studies published between 2014 and 2024 to uncover trends, gaps, and opportunities across neuroscience. Introducing OrganoidMap—an interactive, open‐access platform to explore and compare models—this work enables ...

An integrated genomic approach for the study of mandibular prognathism in the European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax) [PDF]

, 2016
Skeletal anomalies in farmed fish are a relevant issue affecting animal welfare and health and causing significant economic losses. Here, a high-density genetic map of European seabass for QTL mapping of jaw deformity was constructed and a genome-wide ...

Rapid and robust association mapping of expression quantitative trait loci [PDF]

BMC Proceedings, 2007
We applied a simple and efficient two-step method to analyze a family-based association study of gene expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) in a mixed model framework. This two-step method produces very similar results to the full mixed model method, with our method being significantly faster than the full model. Using the Genetic Analysis Workshop

Farnesyltransferase Deficiency in Cardiomyocytes Initiates Senescence and Contributes to Cardiac Fibrosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Lipid overload suppresses SREBF2‐mediated FNTB expression, leading to defective Lamin A maturation and nuclear envelope instability. This nuclear catastrophe triggers a pro‐fibrotic senescence program in cardiomyocytes. Notably, restoring nuclear integrity via AAV9‐based gene therapy effectively attenuates cardiac remodeling, identifying the ...

Integrative Bioinformatics Approaches for Identification of Drug Targets in Hypertension

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2018
High blood pressure or hypertension is an established risk factor for a myriad of cardiovascular diseases. Genome-wide association studies have successfully found over nine hundred loci that contribute to blood pressure.
