Enhancer RNA Transcriptome‐Wide Association Study Reveals a Distinctive Class of Pan‐Cancer Susceptibility eRNAs

open access: yesAdvanced Science
Many cancer risk variants are located within enhancer regions and lack sufficient molecular interpretation. Here, we constructed the first comprehensive atlas of enhancer RNA (eRNA)‐mediated genetic effects from 28 033 RNA sequencing samples across 11 ...

Genome-wide Association Study of Kernel Carbohydrates in the Wisconsin Sweet Corn Diversity Panel Revealed Loci beyond Classic Endosperm Genes

open access: yesJournal of the American Society for Horticultural Science
Sweet corn ranks among the top vegetable crops by production value in the United States. The sweetness, tenderness, and texture of sweet corn kernels are the most important traits for eating quality.

Genetic predisposition to uterine leiomyoma is determined by loci for genitourinary development and genome stability

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Uterine leiomyomas (ULs) are benign tumors that are a major burden to women’s health. A genome-wide association study on 15,453 UL cases and 392,628 controls was performed, followed by replication of the genomic risk in six cohorts.

Unlocking the potential of cell‐permeable nanobodies for intracellular applications

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This review outlines current strategies for delivery of nanobodies into cells and highlights recent examples of functional applications. By addressing and manipulating intracellular targets, these molecules hold great potential for treating cancer, respiratory diseases and neurological disorders, making this a vibrant area of research in the biomedical

Genome-wide association and functional follow-up reveals new loci for kidney function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is an important public health problem with a genetic component. We performed genome-wide association studies in up to 130,600 European ancestry participants overall, and stratified for key CKD risk factors. We uncovered 6 new

Differential expression of cancer‐related genes supports prediction of poor response to first‐line treatments in T‐ALL pediatric patients with high minimal residual disease

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
In the present work, we have identified a transcriptional signature based on the differential expression of six genes (BCL2&MAST4, HSH2D&LAT2, METRN&PITPNM2) that would facilitate the early detection of T‐cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T‐ALL) patients prone to a poor treatment response and could be implemented at diagnosis, along with other risk ...

Genome-Wide Joint Meta-Analysis of SNP and SNP-by-Smoking Interaction Identifies Novel Loci for Pulmonary Function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Genome-wide association studies have identified numerous genetic loci for spirometic measures of pulmonary function, forced expiratory volume in one second (FEV1), and its ratio to forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC).

KDM7A and KDM1A inhibition suppresses tumour promoting pathways in prostate cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Treatment resistance is a major challenge for patients with advanced prostate cancer. This study examined an alternative approach to target the major prostate cancer‐promoting pathway by targeting epigenetic factors, whose levels are higher in tumours.

A Genome-Wide Association Study of Neuroticism in a Population-Based Sample [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Neuroticism is a moderately heritable personality trait considered to be a risk factor for developing major depression, anxiety disorders and dementia. We performed a genome-wide association study in 2,235 participants drawn from a population-based study
