CausalCellInfer: Prioritizing Cell‐Type‐Specific Disease Associations From Genetically Predicted Transcriptomes in Biobank Cohorts

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Bulk and genotype‐imputed transcriptomes obscure the cellular drivers of complex disease. CausalCellInfer resolves them by integrating invariant marker selection, deep learning deconvolution, and regularized matrix completion. Applied to ∼500 000 UK Biobank participants across 29 traits, it uncovers hallmark cell‐type proportion shifts, including ...

Integrative Genomic and Functional Investigation of the Multi‐Layered Genetic Architecture Between Anorexia Nervosa and Bone Loss

International Journal of Eating Disorders, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Bone loss is a severe and often irreversible complication of anorexia nervosa (AN), yet the genetic mechanisms underlying this comorbidity remain underexplored. This study focuses on constructing a comprehensive genetic architecture between AN and estimated calcaneal bone mineral density (eBMD).

Integrating transcriptome-wide study and mRNA expression profiles yields novel insights into the biological mechanism of chondropathies

Arthritis Research & Therapy, 2019
Background Chondropathies are a group of cartilage diseases, which share some common pathogenetic features. The etiology of chondropathies is still largely obscure now.

Identification of candidate genes and chemicals associated with osteoarthritis by transcriptome-wide association study and chemical-gene interaction analysis

Arthritis Research & Therapy, 2023
Background Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common degenerative joint disease and causes chronic pain and disability to the elderly. Several risk factors are involved, such as aging, obesity, genetic susceptibility, and environmental factors.

A uterine‐centric view of reproductive senescence: Genetic insights into late‐life performance in laying hens [PDF]

IMetaOmics
This study identifies uterus weight as a heritable (h2 = 0.45) intermediate phenotype that independently associates with late‐life egg production and eggshell quality in aged laying hens. Genome‐wide association study (GWAS) reveals a genome‐wide significant locus on chromosome 3 and suggestive loci on chromosome 11 for uterus weight, mediation ...

Shared Genetic Pathways Linking Oral Diseases to Gastrointestinal Disorders: An Integrative Multi‐Omics Study

iMetaMed, EarlyView.
Shared genetics pathways connect oral diseases and gut disorders. ABSTRACT Oral diseases are highly prevalent and increasingly recognized as contributors to gastrointestinal disorders. Despite clinical observations of oral–gut comorbidity, the underlying genetic architecture and causal mechanisms remain poorly understood.

Natural variation in the promoter of OsPDX1.2 enhances vitamin B6 accumulation and cold tolerance in rice

Journal of Integrative Plant Biology, EarlyView.
Allelic variation in the promoter of the pyridoxal phosphate synthase OsPDX1.2 caused variation in the ACE‐box cis‐elements, resulting in differing OsPDX1.2 expression due to differences in binding affinity between the OsbZIP18 transcriptipn factor and the ACE‐box, contributing to variation in vitamin B6 levels and cold tolerance among rice varieties ...

Molecular Chaperone Networks in Plants: Maintaining Proteostasis and Enhancing Stress Resilience for Crop Improvement

Plant, Cell &Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Molecular chaperones play a central role in the plant proteostasis machinery by aiding the folding of nascent proteins, preventing aggregation, and repairing or degrading damaged proteins. These functions are especially essential during abiotic and biotic stress, which can destabilise cellular proteins and disrupt metabolic homoeostasis.

Population-Matched Transcriptome Prediction Increases Discovery and Replication Rate in TWAS [PDF]

, 2021
Most genome-wide and transcriptome-wide association studies (GWAS, TWAS) focus on European populations; however, these results cannot always be accurately applied to non-European populations due to differences in genetic architecture.
