  1. La structure des réseaux de régulation explique l'évolution et l'héritabilité des phénotypes complexes

    De nombreux phénotypes humains sont polygéniques, déterminés par plusieurs gènes et éléments régulateurs : la taille à l’âge adulte, le métabolisme, l’immunité, la prédisposition génétique à de nombreuses maladies, y compris des cancers et des maladies auto-immunes, des troubles psychiatriques et des maladies neurodégénératives. Ces gènes sont souvent pléiotropes, déterminant simultanément différents phénotypes. Cela s’explique par le grand nombre d’interactions au niveau moléculaire dans chaque cellule, où des réseaux complexes régulent finement l’expression des gènes. Étant donné l’intrication des bases génétiques des différents phénotypes complexes, nous nous sommes demandé comment un phénotype complexe peut évoluer en réponse aux contraintes environnementales, sans altérer les autres phénotypes.

  2. #Aminoacid #mutations #PB1-V719M and #PA-N444D combined with #PB2-627K contribute to the #pathogenicity of #H7N9 in #mice, Vet Res.: veterinaryresearch.biomedcentr

    Overall, this study revealed that #virulence in H7N9 is a #polygenic trait and identified novel virulence-related residues (PB2-627K combined with PB1-719M and/or PA-444D) in viral ribonucleoprotein (vRNP) complexes.

    Polygenic risk score analysis for multiethnic populations
    Chris Amos

    Polygenic Risk Scores (PRS)
    * Inform re biological processes
    * Identify some at higher risk
    * Might motivate behavioral change

    PRS could inform when to start screening.

    "measles plot instead of a manhattan plot" - has excessive false positives all over the genome.

    Lung cancer risk snp also is related to response to smoking cessation

  10. "Polygenic risk scores performed poorly in population screening, individual risk prediction, and population risk stratification. Strong claims about the effect of polygenic risk scores on healthcare seem to be disproportionate to their performance."

    "numerous small-effect factors on a single chromosome can appear as spurious large-effect loci. This mapping artifact persists even for large samples and dense markers and may cause underreporting of polygenicity from genetic crosses."
