The role of long-range transcriptional regulation in interpretation of non-coding variants associated with human disease

Katarina Mandić, Dalibor Hršak, Filip Uljanic…·Anja Barešić

This study introduces targPred, a method using genomic regulatory blocks to connect non-coding SNPs with target genes, and demonstrates its application to childhood obesity and psychiatric diseases.

Integrative analysis in head and neck cancer reveals distinct role of miRNome and methylome as tumour epigenetic drivers

Katarina Mandić, Nina Milutin Gašperov, Ksenija Božinović…·Anja Barešić

The paper integrates miRNome, methylome, and transcriptome data from head and neck cancer samples to identify epigenetic biomarkers and their associations with gene expression and tumor progression.
