About this listen
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified thousands of disease-associated genetic variants. Many of these variants lie in non-coding regions of the genome, making interpretation of GWAS difficult and leading to poor translation into therapeutics. In this episode, Kellen reviews an exciting original article published in Nature in June 2024 titled, “A disease-associated gene desert directs macrophage inflammation through ETS2”. Here, Stankey et al. use a cutting-edge functional genomic strategy to identify a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of inflammatory bowel disease.
