Genome-wide enhancer RNA profiling adds molecular links between genetic variation and human cancers
“In the field of cancer research, a comprehensive analysis of enhancer RNA quantitative trait loci (eRNAQTLs) was conducted, identifying 300,112 eRNAQTLs across 30 cancer types. Expert established the CancereRNAQTL system, which provides solutions to solve cancer heritability problems and lays a foundation for the construction of eRNA-based therapeutic strategies.”
