Abstract excerpt
The gut microbiome plays fundamental roles in physiological and pathological processes, yet its interaction with host gene expression and contribution to disease remain underexplored. Here, we integrate the genetic regulatory maps of 116 microbial genera with gene expression quantitative trait loci (eQTLs) and DNA methylation QTLs (mQTLs) in three intestinal tissues to dissect host-microbiome interaction. We...
