Major advances in wheat production are needed to address global food insecurity under future climate conditions, such as high temperatures. The grain yield of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a quantitatively inherited complex trait that is strongly

Abstract Objective Focal epilepsy is characterized by progressive cortical thinning, particularly within limbic structures; however, whether this atrophy reflects acquired seizure‐induced damage or shared genetic predisposition remains unresolved. Methods We integrated genome‐wide association study (GWAS) summary statistics from the ILAE Consortium ...

The mysteries of LETM1 pleiotropy
LETM1 is a nuclear-encoded protein located in the inner mitochondrial membrane, playing a critical role in regulating mitochondrial cation and volume homeostasis. However, numerous studies on functional features, molecular interactions, and disease-associated effects of LETM1 revealed that LETM1 is also involved in other metabolic functions including ...

This study comprehensively evaluated the differential effect of clonal hematopoiesis (CH) mutations on the risk of various stroke subtypes and functional recovery. It shows that TET2 is associated with small vessel stroke possibly via a pro‐inflammatory pathway. Abstract Recent observational studies have found an association between Clonal Hematopoesis

Statistical Methods for Testing Genetic Pleiotropy [PDF]
AbstractGenetic pleiotropy is when a single gene influences more than one trait. Detecting pleiotropy and understanding its causes can improve the biological understanding of a gene in multiple ways, yet current multivariate methods to evaluate pleiotropy test the null hypothesis that none of the traits are associated with a variant; departures from ...

Mendelian randomization (MR) studies were conducted using the inverse‐variance weighted (IVW) method, MR‐Egger and weighted median on juvenile myoclonic epilepsy (JME), and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) data from the Integrative Epidemiology Unit (IEU) Open genome‐wide association study (GWAS) database and the International League Against Epilepsy

Abstract Objective In the present study, a bidirectional two‐sample Mendelian randomization approach was utilized to explore potential causal relationships between mitochondrial DNA copy number (mtDNA‐CN) and ovary‐related reproductive disorders (ORRDs), including ovarian dysfunction, ovarian cyst, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), premature ovarian ...

Stroke and Alzheimer’s Disease: A Mendelian Randomization Study
Stroke and Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are common neurological diseases. Several exiting studies indicated that late onset-AD and ischemic stroke have shared genetic links. Different kinds of stroke have different mechanisms.
