Behind the Science: Epistasis, the sly genetic tag team behind some heart disease
Euan Ashley’s lab uncovers the workings of epistasis, a type of interaction between gene variants, that could possibly transform our understanding of inherited heart diseases and much more.

Hard to understate how wonderful it is to see our manuscript in print today @natcardiovascres.nature.com. We discover ADAR1 to control dsRNA sensor MDA5 in atherosclerosis, creating a new paradigm of endogenous dsRNA sensing as a causal mechanism of disease. Let's get into it 👇 #RNAsky rdcu.be/eGEyu

Smooth muscle expression of RNA editing enzyme ADAR1 controls activation of the RNA sensor MDA5 in atherosclerosis
Nature Cardiovascular Research - Weldy et al. show that smooth muscle expression of the RNA editing enzyme ADAR1 regulates activation of the double-stranded RNA sensor MDA5 in a novel mechanism of...

Excited to share our new paper in Nature Cardiovascular Research @natcardiovascres.nature.com!! We decoded how genes team up through epistasis to drive cardiac hypertrophy. 👏🙏 Euan Ashley@euanashley.bsky.social and Bin Yu Link: doi.org/10.1038/s441... NCVR news: www.nature.com/articles/s44...
