Systems Biology Analysis of Human Genomes Points to Key Pathways Conferring Spina Bifida Risk

2021-07-04

Abstract excerpt

Spina bifida (SB) is a debilitating birth defect caused by multiple gene and environment interactions. Though SB shows non-Mendelian inheritance, genetic factors contribute to an estimated 70% of cases. Nevertheless, identifying human mutations conferring SB risk is challenging due to its relative rarity, genetic heterogeneity, incomplete penetrance and environmental influences that hamper GWAS approaches to untar...
