In a linear regression model with adjustment for confounding effects from DNA copy number variants (CNVs), DNA methylation, and other clinical factors, rs9311399 was the best variant that was significantly associated with the expression level of a lncRNA BHLHE40-AS1 in the Chinese ovarian tumor dataset (the minor A allele for increased expression, P = 0.002, Fig. 3a) but not in the TCGA dataset (P = 0.614, Supplementary Fig. S5), suggesting that rs9311399 could be a population-specific eQTL. The gene discussed is BHLHE40; the disease is ovarian neoplasm.
