Genetic variation contributes to gene expression response in ischemic stroke: an eQTL study
AssociationN=275Hajar Amini et al.(2020)· Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology

This eQTL study examined 137 ischemic stroke patients and 138 controls to identify SNP-gene associations affecting blood gene expression. The analysis identified 4 significant cis-eQTLs and 70 trans-eQTLs with genotype-diagnosis interactions. Key findings include rs56348411 (NRGN, p=2.10×10⁻⁸), rs78046578 (CXCL10), rs975903 (SMAD4), and rs62299879 (CD38) affecting inflammatory response genes, plus rs148791848 as a strong trans-eQTL for ANOS1 involved in neural cell adhesion.

About AMELX

This gene encodes a member of the amelogenin family of extracellular matrix proteins. Amelogenins are involved in biomineralization during tooth enamel development. Mutations in this gene cause X-linked amelogenesis imperfecta. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
