An Osteoporosis Risk SNP at 1p36.12 Acts as an Allele-Specific Enhancer to Modulate LINC00339 Expression via Long-Range Loop Formation.
American journal of human genetics ·doi:10.1016/j.ajhg.2018.03.001

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have reproducibly associated variants within intergenic regions of 1p36.12 locus with osteoporosis, but the functional roles underlying these noncoding variants are unknown. Through an integrative fun…

SNP-SNP interactions between WNT4 and WNT5A were associated with obesity related traits in Han Chinese Population.
Scientific reports ·doi:10.1038/srep43939

Considering the biological roles of WNT4 and WNT5A involved in adipogenesis, we aimed to investigate whether SNPs in WNT4 and WNT5A contribute to obesity related traits in Han Chinese population. Targeted genomic sequence for WNT4 and WNT5A…
