Widespread gene-environment interactions shape the immune response to SARS-CoV-2 infection in hospitalized COVID-19 patients

Haley E. Randolph, Raúl Aguirre‐Gamboa, Elsa Brunet‐Ratnasingham, Tomoko Nakanishi, Zepeng Mu, Veronica Locher, Ellen Ketter, Cary Brandolino, Catherine Larochelle, Alexandre Prat, Nathalie Arbour, Anne Dumaine, Andrés Finzi, Madéleine Durand, John Brent Richards, , Luis Bruno Barreiro

This study identifies gene-environment interactions influencing immune response to SARS-CoV-2 in hospitalized patients using single-cell RNA-sequencing and eQTL analysis.

Impact of disease-associated chromatin accessibility QTLs across immune cell types and contexts

Zepeng Mu, Haley E. Randolph, Raúl Aguirre‐Gamboa, Ellen Ketter, Anne Dumaine, Veronica Locher, Cary Brandolino, Xuanyao Liu, DE Kaufmann, Luis Bruno Barreiro, Yang Li

The paper identifies chromatin accessibility QTLs (caQTLs) in immune cells and finds they colocalize more with GWAS loci than eQTLs, but often lack downstream gene expression effects.
