Highlights
Researchers developed a new method for transcriptome-wide association studies that accounts for cell type heterogeneity.
The new method identifies gene expression and splicing quantitative trait loci while accounting for confounding factors from variable cell type composition.
Researchers assembled a reference panel of cell type-specific expression signatures to deconvolute bulk tissue transcriptome data.
The cell type deconvolution method significantly improved detection of expression and splicing QTLs compared to previous approaches.
Accounting for cell type heterogeneity revealed novel QTLs missed by other methods due to confounding cell type effects.
Many detected QTLs were tissue-specific, emphasizing the importance of analyzing individual tissues rather than whole blood.
Integration with GWAS data found novel causal genes and variants for complex traits via colocalization of QTLs.
QTLs were enriched in autoimmune disease and cancer susceptibility loci, demonstrating disease relevance.
The new QTL mapping approach highlights the power of integrating cell type information in transcriptome analysis.
Accounting for cell type heterogeneity will be critical for understanding molecular mechanisms of complex diseases.
This approach enables construction of interpretable gene regulatory networks modulated by genetic variation.
The novel QTLs and splicing QTLs provide a rich resource for future functional studies of disease-relevant variants.
Researchers plan to scale up the approach for larger datasets with additional cell types and diverse tissues.
Overall, this study demonstrates the importance of accounting for cell heterogeneity to gain biological insights from transcriptomic data.
The method represents an important advance for leveraging transcriptome data to understand genotype-phenotype relationships.

hello people at the internet watching
videos that have to do of automobiles
welcome to this a drastically expanded
salvage yard this thing is huge now if
you're new and you'd like to get caught
up on the last video where I had some
unfortunate situations happened with a
very expensive engine look this one's
back they put this one on backwards up
above is a link to that video so I am
here for one very specific reason today
and because they're reorganizing the
entire salvage yard nothing is in right
now holy crap what happened to this
Accord RX8 someone already took the
engine out of it at least they still
have stuff generally in a Japanese area
over here and that's I need some
Japanese stuff but I need old stuff oh
yeah everything's super mixed up there's
a mini right next to an ametza weird a
triy Becca I forgot about these things
here we go there an old Maxima and right
down next to it is an old Accord is this
Maxima a VG or a K8 it's a VG this is
huh engine's still in it imagine that
another old mexa here you go an old
Camry look at that body work oh sad an
old Gump there another old Accord seems
like late 8s is the oldest you'll find
in here right now little EF hatch jeez
there is nothing usable out of this ah a
cresa when restoring older cars that are
less common and popular for the masses
you really have to learn how to tap into
resources that the average person really
wouldn't think of thank you cresa don't
think there's any more old Japanese cars
down here holy crap it's alumina I can
literally hear that engine right now in
my head the cars you don't want to stop
driving and the cars that make the stops
you
need welcome to the following day whilst
I'm working on my experiment from the
junkyard it's time to do this I don't
know if this is going to come off in one
piece I don't need to save it this is so
bad all the speaker torn what about this
side
well that speaker is not torn oh wait
yeah it's got a tiny tear obviously new
modern speakers are going to sound
better just because materials
deteriorate but there would have been
something special about having original
old school speakers still in perfect
condition that may or may not be
foreshadowing for what inevitably is
going to come later to fill these holes
that was probably the worst way possible
I could have worded this but you get the
point this giant roll right here was
carefully selected due to its texture
and its
coloration that's it right there now I
have never done this before so don't
judge me if I screw up but let's hope I
don't cuz I don't have a ton of a
material that's some
glue I'm going to use a brush just in
case make sure there's no crap stuck to
this cuz then it will show
up shake up my adhesive get it all all
over the top of my workbench and the
floor and my feet and my lungs that
smells absolutely terrible I probably
should have wor a respirator I'm not
repositioning the camera for this I'm
sorry I I don't have a lot of working
time here there's a little tiny dimples
here and there and that's cuz there's
actually little holes for the buttons
that hold this all in instead of rooing
my freshly cut out piece of fabric I'll
ruin my creeper cuz that made sense now
some of you are probably wondering why
I'm doing this in Black considering the
carpet the seats the headliner and the
pillar covers are all brown those is
like wrapping presents and I suck at
that well there's a good explanation for
that and that's because the dashboard is
black I don't think wrapping it is going
to work yeah it doesn't stay when you
wrap it stapler I don't want to use a
big heavy duty one cuz I don't want to
go through the other
side oh dumb it went through luckily
they're just tiny tiny holes that won't
be
noticeable
I'm going to try a thicker glue which I
don't have enough of that's working
better it's like mustard that will glue
your
[Music]
shut that glue that is no joke I started
getting a headache within like 3 minutes
of using
it I think this will actually work it
needs to be smaller anyway so this is
fine the factory rear package shelf had
jute under it so I'm putting that back
in there as a form of sound deadening
which is the number one thing I get told
in comments about this car is that I
need to add sound deadening to the
inside of the chassis before I install
the interior despite me mentioning
several times that the entire inside of
the shell was Factory sound deadened
already it smells like new car in here
cuz all the fresh jute and carpet smells
good what was I thinking when I did this
this is huge pain I should have put all
this Hardware in a bag I don't know
where to put this stuff I don't know
what to do with my hand my socks are
going to get dirty and then people on
the internet are going to see my feet
and then I'm going to get I'm going to
lose money how I think about it I'm
definitely going end up having to
upgrade this fuel pump that needs to get
vacuumed that's gross honestly what's
more amazing about this entire situation
is how dust is capable of collecting
underneath something that was covered
with an absorbent material I can't
believe how much cleaner this is already
so speaker wire I got some brand new
fresh high quality stuff to replace the
old crap that was in there I'm going to
slice this in the center this is pretty
durable stuff trim this right here that
goes on there this you have no idea how
good this
smells it just smells like a expensive
new cow it smells like Ron
Burgundy that's so good so good oh man
and that looks good that came out
absolutely mint I'm like very proud of
myself for that one a little bit
interior
cleaner I had no idea this vent was
actually functional in this trim piece
oh it's nice and clean the back is where
all the stink is
[Music]
at that's stink free I got to figure out
how much of this I
need probably put EXT ra I'm talking to
myself I guess technically I'm talking
to the camera airplane I'll probably end
up integrating this into the dash
harness area that's F-16 Flying a
training
sorty a little bit of After Burner
action and it's
[Music]
wingman yep that should be enough right
there cut it whether or whether not I
actually have speakers for this thing
already that's something that will be
the icing on the cake at the end of this
build okay I think that goes like that
also I haven't made up my mind whether
or not I want to remove the sticker on
the back
window this might not make sense to some
of you to save this stuff but I want to
try to keep some of this car original
and these are both for the front so I
was kind of stupid and accidentally
threw away the plastic liners for the
rear windows but these are genuine
Toyota parts bags this is 100% fully
acceptable cuz this is a genuine Toyota
plastic bag this right here is I'm
saying that I win I win OEM Plus on the
internet because I use genuine Toyota
plastic
bag nobody can top
this I got it all over my nails awesome
exactly what I wanted Beau all my
[Music]
Nails the whole reason why this video
started off in the junkyard was because
of this I had to get some more of the
original Toyota Hardware see how it has
a little Fantastic Four logo as the
rating on the top of the bolt well they
don't make them like this anymore old
Toyota Hardware from the'80s and older
Poss possibly also Nissan and Honda
might have done this but I know 100%
Toyota had the little number rating with
a circle around it on the head of each
one of the bolts now these are all the
ones from the Celica that I tried
cleaning up in the ultrasonic cleaner
and a lot of them are just covered in
old paint and they didn't really come up
as clean as I wanted them to and the
ones from the cresa they lost their gold
finish and are covered in paint over
spray so what that means is I'm probably
going to end up having to get those all
re zinc coated just because that's a lot
of the hardware that goes in the engine
bay for brackets and stuff that's highly
visible so this thing that looks like
the corpse of a prehistoric
caterpillar is for the window you know
when you see like a late model Ford or
Dodge pickup truck and the front windows
are so scratched you can't even see in
them that's because people are lazy and
don't clean their vehicles like they
should and also because these get full
of dirt what I have here straight from
Japan is a set of new ones
shout out to Rick at toy head Auto he's
the one that stocks these and imports
them from Japan where they're produced
and uh I'm just glad they still make
stuff like this for these cars give this
a little wipe down with some interior
cleaner and then these get bent sideways
up here at the top I almost did this
upside down and swapped them see how one
side has the little slits because it has
to curve well the little slits need to
face down which subsequently will Orient
this little little guy in the right
direction for your window there really
isn't any good information on the
internet for doing this either at least
that I could find getting this Bend
right there is really not easy can't
tell if corrosion or adhesive just in
case this is actually corrosion I'm
going to treat it real quick and then
final wipe down this
side this is how I'm making my
Bend there's only so much range of
motion you can bend to this ouch that
thing's
[Music]
sharp if you guys missed out on the
video where I had to replace the carpet
down here and sew on this new piece in
the border and all that stuff uh I'll
link it up
above ouch that was definitely adhesive
on the back side of this door
panel this is an ass pen right here
there is a clip that I just can't can't
really get to I'm sorry for the terrible
lighting and camera angles this is not a
film studio in Los Angeles this is a
shop and Tucson getting all
these little Clips aligned in their
respective holes took far longer than I
anticipated my shop is such a mess I
have to clean in here these guys are
painted I'm that lame that I put a part
of the Toyota sticker from this bag on
the plastic just so you know that's a
flex the only way that could go any
harder is if it was old logo clip goes
over the top walk around the shop at my
socks getting them all
dirty man this is not
easy yep that one went where it supposed
to got
it the plate will go right there as much
as I want to bolt the seat in and be
done with this area I have a problem Mo
your shoing C lady eventually someday
I'll find a general contractor to erect
a new shop and when I do have one I
won't have to play musical cars anymore
if you're up to speed on these videos
and you're wondering what happened with
the engine as you're watching this right
now it should either be or hopefully
almost be already at the engine shop
that originally did all the work I
shipped it and stuck an Apple Air tag in
the box so I could track
it all right scuff these up use a
scotchbrite so I can put some tooth into
this metal I don't know why I choose to
struggle when I have tools I guess I'm
just used to
[Music]
[Applause]
it last time I did that I hit my camera
with a bolt almost this time I learned
my
lesson wax and grease remover make sure
this is spot spotless even though I
manufactured these brackets out of
stainless steel I still want to coat
them in some black epoxy that way they
match the underside of the car better
and with the magic of time travel
they're all dry and ready to
install
is it's get hot in
here so take off all your
clothes
[Music]
magnet
worked solid oh almost lost that
[Music]
one how gangster is this these seat belt
bolts have the little Toyota logo right
there at the very top is the old Toyota
logo or at least the outline shape of it
inside a circle seat
belt it's amazing that I don't destroy
these cameras on a more frequent basis
with how I treat them here so you can
see what I'm doing I have Windows that
go down
[Music]
now I had one one side
in there now it's in that's hard it's
starting to feel like a
car
it's a little Victory but it's a
victory it's so comfy and it doesn't
stink like mildew like it used to a
little dangerous so there's that
underlying theme to this video if you
haven't noticed and it's Hardware the
reason why I have not assembled the rear
end of the car fully yet is because I
was lacking clean yellow zinc Hardware
along with these this is raw steel and
this needs to be zinc coated however you
see how thick these are I think I need
to go back to the drawing board on
designing these the way I design these
is the flat portion mounts to the bottom
side of the spoiler I have to put some
holes in it and attach it there and then
these two studs go through the holes
that I have in the top of the trunk lid
problem is that surface is curved it's
not perfectly flat I'm thinking steel
isn't the answer that is way too too
stiff and it's inevitably going to Dent
the trunk lid when I go to tighten it
down so I need to do something a little
bit more flexible but yet still strong
enough that I can attach it to the
bottom of the spoiler I was also
thinking I could do something like this
this is what is used on the 67 of 69
Camaro and Firebird to mount the rear
spoiler on it you see this is the
threaded portion that goes into the
bottom of the spoiler and then this is
the body that goes through the trunk lid
that you can thread some Hardware onto I
kind of like this option cuz there's no
strap going across the bottom of the
wing as far as the bumper itself goes I
had the brace that goes behind it
powdercoated black along with the
license plate bracket which this is
originally black from the factory on
these cars so now these are ready but
the hardware not so much it's got old
paint on it and yeah I need to get these
freshened up so with that said the next
video on this car is going to be
dependent on me having freshly zinc
coated Hardware back from a zinc coater
and the engine is probably going to take
about 30 days to get back from the
engine builder and without the engine
there's only a couple small things left
that I can actually do to this car most
of it is final assembly waiting on those
fresh zinc coated bolts however outside
the door right now is a freshly painted
cab for the come and swap F350 so I got
some content on that coming for you as
well as either the MR2 or the Forester
you guys got to fight it out in the
comment section below which you want to
see something on and then hopefully by
then I should have the stuff back for
this car and I can wrap it up so thank
you guys for watching and I'll see you
soon with another video
bye
