Gene-Environment Dependence Creates Spurious Gene-Environment Interaction [PDF]
The American Journal of Human Genetics, 2014 Gene-environment interactions have the potential to shed light on biological processes leading to disease and to improve the accuracy of epidemiological risk models. However, relatively few such interactions have yet been confirmed. In part this is because genetic markers such as tag SNPs are usually studied, rather than the causal variants themselves.

Inference of gene-environment interaction from heterogeneous case-parent trios [PDF]
Frontiers in Genetics, 2023 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]
Journal of Medical Biochemistry, 2010 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 interactions in asthma [PDF]
Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 2006 Asthma is a complex disease with a diverse genetic and environmental component.1 Asthma shows a high level of phenotypic heterogeneity characterised by obstruction of the airways of the lung and is related with atopy, bronchial hyperresponsiveness (BHR), and increased IgE levels.

Mutual information for testing gene-environment interaction. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 Despite current enthusiasm for investigation of gene-gene interactions and gene-environment interactions, the essential issue of how to define and detect gene-environment interactions remains unresolved.

Gene-environment interaction in molar-incisor hypomineralization.
PLoS ONE, 2021 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

Gene environment interactions in asthma [PDF]
Archives of Disease in Childhood, 2007 The underlying pathogenesis of asthma, one of the most common chronic diseases of childhood, is not fully understood. There is a well-documented heritable component to this disease and environmental factors associated with a Westernised lifestyle have also been implicated; recent studies suggest gene-environment interactions are important in the ...

Efficient gene–environment interaction testing through bootstrap aggregating
Scientific Reports, 2023 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
Journal of Physiological Anthropology, 2023 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.
