Where Are the Disease-Associated eQTLs?

Trends in genetics : TIG - 1 Feb 2021

Umans Benjamin D, Battle Alexis, Gilad Yoav

Abstract excerpt

Most disease-associated variants, although located in putatively regulatory regions, do not have detectable effects on gene expression. One explanation could be that we have not examined gene expression in the cell types or conditions that are most relevant for disease. Even large-scale efforts to study gene expression across tissues are limited to human samples obtained opportunistically or postmortem, mostly...
