Single cell chromatin accessibility reveals pancreatic islet cell type- and state-specific regulatory programs of diabetes risk

2019-07-09

Abstract excerpt

Genetic risk variants for complex, multifactorial diseases are enriched in cis -regulatory elements. Single cell epigenomic technologies create new opportunities to dissect cell type-specific mechanisms of risk variants, yet this approach has not been widely applied to disease-relevant tissues. Given the central role of pancreatic islets in type 2 diabetes (T2D) pathophysiology, we generated accessible chromatin...
