Annotating Transcriptional Effects of Genetic Variants in Disease‐Relevant Tissue: Transcriptome‐Wide Allelic Imbalance in Osteoarthritic Cartilage
9 Oct 2018
Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVE: Multiple single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) conferring susceptibility to osteoarthritis (OA) mark imbalanced expression of positional genes in articular cartilage, reflected by unequally expressed alleles among heterozygotes (allelic imbalance [AI]). We undertook this study to explore the articular cartilage transcriptome from OA patients for AI events to identify putative disease-driving genetic...
