Abstract excerpt
Expression quantitative trait locus (eQTL) studies in human cohorts typically detect at least one regulatory signal per gene and have been proposed as a way to explain mechanisms of genetic liability for other traits, as discovered in genome-wide association studies (GWASs). In particular, eQTL signals may colocalize with GWAS signals, suggesting gene expression as a possible mediator. However, recent studies...
