Abstract excerpt
To explore the association between apaQTL/eQTL-SNPs and the susceptibility to silicosis. A silicosis-related GWAS was initially conducted to screen for single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with the risk of silicosis. Candidate SNPs with apaQTL and eQTL functions were then obtained from the 3'aQTL-atlas and GTEx databases. Subsequently, additional case-control studies were performed to validate the...
