Identifying causal genetic variants for high-altitude adaptation through blood eQTL analysis in plateau populations
This study offers a comprehensive eQTL map and reveals causal chains of “variant-gene-phenotype” for HAA-related traits, which provides new insights into potential regulatory mechanisms and targets for prevention and treatment of altitude sickness.
