Does expression quantitative trait loci analysis identify associations between genotype and gene expression in human intestine?
eQTL analysis of intestinal tissue supports findings that some eQTL remain stable across cell types, whereas others are specific to the sampled location. Our findings confirm and expand the number of known genotypes associated with expression and could help elucidate mechanisms of intestinal disease.
Norepinephrine activates the raf-1 kinase/MAP kinase cascade through both alpha 1- and beta-adrenergic stimulation, and signaling pathways from the two receptors synergistically induce cardiomyocyte hypertrophy.
