Regulation of Pancreatic β-Cell Mass by Gene-Environment Interaction [PDF]

Diabetes & Metabolism Journal, 2022
The main pathogenic mechanism of diabetes consists of an increase in insulin resistance and a decrease in insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells. The number of diabetic patients has been increasing dramatically worldwide, especially in Asian people ...

Gene-Environment Interaction in Childhood Asthma [PDF]

International Journal of Immunopathology and Pharmacology, 2011
The importance of early life environmental influences on the etiology of asthma is implied by the observed geographic and temporal variation in the prevalence of the disease among children. There is evidence pointing to the role of exposure to allergen, various aspects of diet and hygiene-related factors in the etiology of asthma.

Gene–Environment Interactions for Parkinson's Disease

Annals of Neurology, 2023
Objective Parkinson's disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder with complex etiology. Multiple genetic and environmental factors have been associated with PD, but most PD risk remains unexplained. The aim of this study was to test for statistical interactions between PD‐related genetic and environmental ...

Simulating gene-gene and gene-environment interactions in complex diseases: Gene-Environment iNteraction Simulator 2

BMC Bioinformatics, 2012
Background The analysis of complex diseases is an important problem in human genetics. Because multifactoriality is expected to play a pivotal role, many studies are currently focused on collecting information on the genetic and environmental factors ...

Gene-environment interaction between body mass index and transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGFβ1) gene in knee and hip osteoarthritis [PDF]

, 2013
Introduction: The objective was to investigate potential gene-environment interaction between body mass index (BMI) and each of eight TGFβ1 polymorphisms in knee and hip osteoarthritis (OA).

Knockout of the Bcmo1 gene results in an inflammatory response in female lung, which is suppressed by dietary beta-carotene [PDF]

, 2010
Beta-carotene 15,15'-monooxygenase 1 knockout (Bcmo1 (-/-)) mice accumulate beta-carotene (BC) similarly to humans, whereas wild-type (Bcmo1 (+/+)) mice efficiently cleave BC.

Boosting for detection of gene–environment interactions [PDF]

Statistics in Medicine, 2012
In genetic association studies, it is typically thought that genetic variants and environmental variables jointly will explain more of the inheritance of a phenotype than either of these two components separately. Traditional methods to identify gene–environment interactions typically consider only one measured environmental variable at a time. However,

A flexible Bayesian model for studying gene-environment interaction. [PDF]

PLoS Genetics, 2012
An important follow-up step after genetic markers are found to be associated with a disease outcome is a more detailed analysis investigating how the implicated gene or chromosomal region and an established environment risk factor interact to influence ...

Interactions between Polygenic Scores and Environments: Methodological and Conceptual Challenges

Sociological Science, 2020
Interest in the study of gene–environment interaction has recently grown due to the sudden availability of molecular genetic data—in particular, polygenic scores—in many long-running longitudinal studies.
