Association of maternal prenatal smoking GFI1-locus and cardio-metabolic phenotypes in 18,212 adults

Epigenetic changes at the GFI1 were linked to smoking exposure in-utero/in-adulthood and robustly associated with cardio-metabolic risk factors

Research

Elucidating the interaction of CF airway epithelial cells and rhinovirus: Using the host-pathogen relationship to identify future therapeutic strategies

A better understanding of the innate immune responses by CF airway epithelial cells is needed to identify why viral infections are more severe in CF

Research

Transcriptional landscape of Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in macrophages

A comprehensive in depth gene expression/regulation profile in Mycobacterium tuberculosis-infected macrophages

Research

A phenotype centric benchmark of variant prioritisation tools

We hypothesised that the performance of variant prioriisation tools may vary by disease phenotype.

Research

Integrative CAGE and DNA Methylation Profiling Identify Epigenetically Regulated Genes in NSCLC

Epigenetically regulated genes have a great theranostic potential, especially in tumors with no apparent driver mutations.

Research

Transcriptome Analysis Uncovers a Growth-Promoting Activity of Orosomucoid-1 on Hepatocytes

Orm1 is induced in response to hepatic injury and executes liver regeneration by activating cell cycle progression in hepatocytes

Research

Systematic analysis of transcription start sites in avian development

CAGE in combination with single-molecule sequencing technology allows mapping of TSSs and genome-wide capture of promoter activities state cell populations.

Research

CAGEd-oPOSSUM: motif enrichment analysis from CAGE-derived TSSs

CAGEd-oPOSSUM can identify transcription factors that act as key regulators of genes involved in specific mammalian cell and tissue types

Research

Autism risk associated with parental age and with increasing difference in age between the parents

Increases in ASD was not only limited to advancing paternal or maternal age alone but also to differences parental age including younger or older similarly age

Research

Reference genotype and exome data from an Australian Aboriginal population for health-based research

This data set provides a useful reference point for genomic studies on Aboriginal Australians
