Exposure to a low dose mixture of endocrine disrupting chemicals alters the brain transcriptome and animal behavior

Alekh Paranjapye, Rili Ahmad, Camille N. Quaye, Andre Luis Garao Rico, Nicole E. Palmiero, Rebecca Anne Simmons, Yu‐Chin Lien, Molly A. Hall, Erica Korb

This study shows that low-dose mixtures of endocrine disrupting chemicals alter brain transcriptomes and behavior in mice, with sex-specific effects and changes in cell-cell signaling.

Flexibly encoded genome-wide association study identifies novel nonadditive genetic risk variants for cardiometabolic traits

Jiayan Zhou, Andre Luis Garao Rico, Lindsay A. Guare, Million Veteran Program, Kyong‐Mi Chang, Philip S. Tsao, Themistocles L. Assimes, Shefali S. Verma, Molly A. Hall

This paper introduces EDGE, a method to detect nonadditive genetic effects in GWAS, finding nonadditive patterns in over 52% of significant loci for coronary artery disease and body mass index.
