Hirschsprung disease (HSCR), characterized by the defective migration of enteric neural crest cells, is a severe congenital tract disease in infants. Its etiology is not clear at present, although a genetic component plays an important role in its etiology. Many studies focused on the polymorphisms of microRNA (miRNA) in several disease progressions have been reported, including HSCR. However, the findings remain inconclusive. The present study aimed to explore the association of genetic variants in miRNAs and HSCR susceptibility in Southern Chinese children.

This is a list of tools and resources that we have found mentioned in this publication.


PLINK (tool)

RRID:SCR_001757

Open source whole genome association analysis toolset, designed to perform range of basic, large scale analyses in computationally efficient manner. Used for analysis of genotype/phenotype data. Through integration with gPLINK and Haploview, there is some support for subsequent visualization, annotation and storage of results. PLINK 1.9 is improved and second generation of the software.

TargetScan (tool)

RRID:SCR_010845

Web tool to predict biological targets of miRNAs by searching for presence of conserved 8mer, 7mer and 6mer sites that match seed region of each miRNA. Nonconserved sites are also predicted and sites with mismatches in seed region that are compensated by conserved 3' pairing. Used to search for predicted microRNA targets in mammals.
