Abstract excerpt
The liver is a central regulator of cardiometabolic physiology, coordinating processes such as lipid and glucose metabolism, protein synthesis, and detoxification. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified hundreds of genetic variants associated with cardiometabolic traits, yet their molecular mechanisms in liver cell types remain unclear. Using multiome gene expression and accessible chromatin...
