Open AccessHigh levels of AAV vector integration into CRISPR-induced DNA breaks
Adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors have shown promising results in preclinical models, but the genomic consequences of transduction with AAV vectors encoding CRISPR-Cas nucleases is still being examined. In ...

Genetic predisposition to mosaic Y chromosome loss in blood
Mosaic loss of chromosome Y (LOY) in circulating white blood cells is the most common form of clonal mosaicism1–5, yet our knowledge of the causes and consequences of this is limited. Here, using a computational ...

Open AccessSelf-reported difficulty initiating sleep and early morning awakenings are associated with nocturnal diastolic non-dip** in older white Swedish men
Chronically blunted nocturnal blood pressure (BP) dip** has been shown to increase the future risk of cardiovascular diseases. In the present cross-sectional study, we investigated whether self-reported inso...

Open AccessGenetic drivers of heterogeneity in type 2 diabetes pathophysiology
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a heterogeneous disease that develops through diverse pathophysiological processes1,2 and molecular mechanisms that are often specific to cell type3,4. Here, to characterize the genetic c...
