Inference of gene-environment interaction from heterogeneous case-parent trios [PDF]
Introduction: In genetic epidemiology, log-linear models of population risk may be used to study the effect of genotypes and exposures on the relative risk of a disease.

Gene-environment interaction: A genetic-epidemiological approach [PDF]
Classical epidemiology addresses the distribution and determinants of diseases in populations, and the factors associated with disease causation, with the aim of preventing disease. Both genetic and environmental factors may contribute to susceptibility,

Gene–Environment Interaction in Major Depression: Focus on Experience-Dependent Biological Systems [PDF]
Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a multifactorial and polygenic disorder, where multiple and partially overlapping sets of susceptibility genes interact each other and with the environment, predisposing individuals to the development of the illness. Thus, MDD results from a complex interplay of vulnerability genes and environmental factors that act ...

Gene–gene and gene-environment interactions on cord blood total IgE in Chinese Han children
Background IL13, IL4, IL4RA, FCER1B and ADRB2 are susceptible genes of asthma and atopy. Our previous study has found gene–gene interactions on asthma between these genes in Chinese Han children. Whether the interactions begin in fetal stage, and whether

Gene-environment interaction in molar-incisor hypomineralization.
Molar incisor hypomineralization (MIH) is an enamel condition characterized by lesions ranging in color from white to brown which present rapid caries progression, and mainly affects permanent first molars and incisors. These enamel defects usually occur

Efficient gene–environment interaction testing through bootstrap aggregating
Gene–environment (GxE) interactions are an important and sophisticated component in the manifestation of complex phenotypes. Simple univariate tests lack statistical power due to the need for multiple testing adjustment and not incorporating potential ...

Signatures of adaptation in myopia-related genes on the sunlight exposure hypothesis
Background Myopia is a common eye disorder that results from gene-environment interactions. The prevalence of myopia varies across populations, and exposure to bright sunlight may prevent its development.
