A Bayesian graphical model for genome-wide association studies (GWAS)

The Annals of Applied Statistics, 2016
The analysis of GWAS data has long been restricted to simple models that cannot fully capture the genetic architecture of complex human diseases. As a shift from standard approaches, we propose here a general statistical framework for multi-SNP analysis of GWAS data based on a Bayesian graphical model.

Interrogating the Genetic Determinants of Tourette’s Syndrome and Other Tic Disorders Through Genome-Wide Association Studies [PDF]

, 2019
Objective: Tourette’s syndrome is polygenic and highly heritable. Genome-wide association study (GWAS) approaches are useful for interrogating the genetic architecture and determinants of Tourette’s syndrome and other tic disorders. The authors conducted

Mendelian Randomization and Double Machine Learning Modeling Reveal Brain Imaging‐Derived Phenotypes as Functional Contributors to 18 Autoimmune Inflammatory Diseases

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This schematic integrates the eight statistically significant causal relationships identified between 1,366 brain imaging‐derived phenotypes (IDPs) and 18 autoimmune inflammatory diseases (AIDs). Arrows indicate the direction of causality inferred from bidirectional two‐sample MR analyses.

Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and their importance in asthma

Allergologia et Immunopathologia, 2015
Asthma is a complex disease determined by the interaction of different genes and environmental factors. The first genetic investigations in asthma were candidate gene association studies and linkage studies. In recent years research has focused on association studies that scan the entire genome without any prior conditioning hypothesis: the so-called ...

Natural Negative Feedback Loops Confer Indica‐Japonica Differentiation for Grain Size Homeostasis in Rice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals the genetic and molecular mechanisms controlling grain size homeostasis through fine‐tuning OsGRX8 self‐expression by two natural negative feedback loops functioning in redox‐dependent or ‐independent manners and identifies two self‐regulatory haplotypes (SRHs) for the subspecies differentiation in rice.

Preliminary studies for identification of SNPs associated with ribeye area in Canchim cattle. [PDF]

, 2020
A genome wide-association study (GWAS) was performed with 400 animals with extreme phenotypes for REA, using the RandomForest methodology. From this analysis, 7 SNPs in the 3,4989,224 to 3,689,224 interval of chromosome 27 (UMD 3.1) were identified as ...

Tobacco Smoke Exposure From Prenatal To Adolescent Periods Drives IBD Pathogenesis: Dynamic DNA Methylation Signatures Across Lifespan Stages

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study illustrates that maternal smoking during pregnancy (MSDP) is an independent risk factor for IBD in offspring, and DNA methylation serves as a key mechanistic pathway connecting early‐life smoking exposure with IBD risk in offspring. That highlights the urgent need for preventive interventions targeting prospective parents and minors to ...

Relationship between NAFLD and coronary artery disease: A Mendelian randomization study

Hepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Background and Aims There is an ongoing debate on whether NAFLD is an active contributor or an innocent bystander in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD). The aim of the present study was to assess the causal relationship between NAFLD and CAD.

GWAS and WGCNA Analysis Uncover Candidate Genes Associated with Oil Content in Soybean

Plants
Soybean vegetable oil is an important source of the human diet. However, the analysis of the genetic mechanism leading to changes in soybean oil content is still incomplete.

Genetics of Tinnitus: Time to Biobank Phantom Sounds

Frontiers in Genetics, 2017
Tinnitus is a common phantom sensation resulting most often from sensory deprivation, and for which little knowledge on the molecular mechanisms exists.
