Abstract excerpt
Sarcopenia is an age-related muscle disease, and its gene regulation in immune cells is not well understood. Using immune cell-specific single-cell expression quantitative trait loci (sc-eQTLs), genome-wide association studies (GWAS), and multi-omics data, we systematically explored their potential causal roles in sarcopenia. We integrated sc-eQTL and cis-eQTL data from whole blood and skeletal muscle, seven...
