A trans-acting locus regulates an anti-viral expression network and type 1 diabetes risk
2010
Here, a combination of genetic studies of gene expression, cross-species network analysis and genome-wide association studies has been used to identify gene networks and the loci underlying their regulation in rats. The results show that an inflammatory network driven by interferon regulatory factor 7 contributes to susceptibility to type 1 diabetes, and implicate the innate viral-response pathway and macrophages in the aetiology of this disease.
