Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: This study aims to identify macrophage polarization (MP)-related genes implicated in esophageal cancer (EC) by integrating methylation quantitative trait loci (mQTL), expression QTL (eQTL), and protein QTL (pQTL) data with EC genome-wide association study (GWAS) data. METHODS: GWAS data were obtained from the UK Biobank for discovery and the FinnGen R10 release for validation. Blood-based mQTL, eQTL,...
