Knee osteoarthritis (KOA) is a prevalent degenerative joint disorder, yet its underlying molecular mechanisms remain puzzling. This study aimed to uncover the genes with a causal relationship to KOA using Mendelian randomization (MR), transcriptomic ...
Large-scale quantitative studies have identified significant genetic associations for various neurological disorders. Expression quantitative trait locusĀ (eQTL) studies have shown the effect of single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on the differenti...

The relationship between genotype and phenotype remains an outstanding question for organism-level traits because these traits are generally . The challenge arises from complex traits being determined by a combination of multiple genes (or loci), whi...
Plants exhibit extensive environment-dependent intraspecific metabolic variation, which likely plays a role in determining variation in whole plant phenotypes. However, much of the work seeking to use natural variation to link genes and transcript's ...
In the field of treatment and prevention of immune-related bone diseases, significant challenges persist, necessitating the urgent exploration of new and effective treatment methods. However, most existing Mendelian randomization (MR) studies are con...
BACKGROUND: Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are rapidly advancing due to the improved resolution and completeness provided by Telomere-to-Telomere (T2T) and pangenome assemblies. While recent advancements in GWAS methods have primarily focused...

Complex diseases pose challenges in prediction due to their multifactorial and polygenic nature. This study employed machine learning (ML) to analyze genomic data from the UK Biobank, aiming to predict the genomic predisposition to complex diseases l...
Sequence-based deep learning models have emerged as powerful tools for deciphering the cis-regulatory grammar of the human genome but cannot generalize to unobserved cellular contexts. Here, we present EpiBERT, a multi-modal transformer that learns g...
