Digital gene expression analysis of the zebra finch genome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: In order to understand patterns of adaptation and molecular evolution it is important to quantify both variation in gene expression and nucleotide sequence divergence.

Identification and validation of novel risk genes for intervertebral disc disorder by integrating large-scale multi-omics analyses and experimental studies

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine
IntroductionAlthough genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified multiple genetic loci linked to intervertebral disc disorder (IDD), their functional characterization remains largely unelucidated.

Pleiotropy-guided transcriptome imputation from normal and tumor tissues identifies candidate susceptibility genes for breast and ovarian cancer

open access: yesHGG Advances, 2021
Summary: Familial, sequencing, and genome-wide association studies (GWASs) and genetic correlation analyses have progressively unraveled the shared or pleiotropic germline genetics of breast and ovarian cancer.

FUS mutant human motoneurons display altered transcriptome and microRNA pathways with implications for ALS pathogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The FUS gene has been linked to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). FUS is a ubiquitous RNA-binding protein, and the mechanisms leading to selective motoneuron loss downstream of ALS-linked mutations are largely unknown.

Identification of asthma-related genes using asthmatic blood eQTLs of Korean patients

open access: yesBMC Medical Genomics, 2023
Background More than 200 asthma-associated genetic variants have been identified in genome-wide association studies (GWASs). Expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) data resources can help identify causal genes of the GWAS signals, but it can be ...

Prediction of Alzheimer’s Disease-Associated Genes by Integration of GWAS Summary Data and Expression Data

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2019
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common cause of dementia. It is the fifth leading cause of death among elderly people. With high genetic heritability (79%), finding the disease’s causal genes is a crucial step in finding a treatment for AD ...

A splicing transcriptome-wide association study identifies novel altered splicing for Alzheimer's disease susceptibility

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2023
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a common neurodegenerative disease in aging individuals. Alternative splicing is reported to be relevant to AD development while their roles in etiology of AD remain largely elusive.

Integrated genomics and proteomics define huntingtin CAG length-dependent networks in mice. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
To gain insight into how mutant huntingtin (mHtt) CAG repeat length modifies Huntington's disease (HD) pathogenesis, we profiled mRNA in over 600 brain and peripheral tissue samples from HD knock-in mice with increasing CAG repeat lengths.

Novel and unscrutinized immune entities of the zebrafish gut

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Understudied cells of the zebrafish immune system include bona fide immune cells and epithelial (‐derived) cells with immune functions. Research focusing on zebrafish cells which demonstrate similarities to mammalian immune cell counterparts may help us understand the pathologies in which they are implicated. Currently available and advanced tools make

Genetic insights into the dissolution of dioecy in diploid persimmon Diospyros oleifera Cheng

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2023
Background Dioecy, a sexual system of single-sexual (gynoecious/androecious) individuals, is rare in flowering plants. This rarity may be a result of the frequent transition from dioecy into systems with co-sexual individuals.
