...Where splicing or transcript-level QTL summary statistics have been released, these are still difficult to compare between studies due to large differences in analysis strategy and the types of transcript-level changes captured by different methods [15]....

...This analysis replicated the previously reported colocalisation with CD40 promoter usage in stimulated macrophages [15] (Figure 3B); however, the same analysis applied to monocyte-specific eQTLs strongly supported a model of distinct causal variants underlying the eQTL and GWAS association in all four studies (Figure 3C)....

...Finally, even though both splicing [1,14] and other transcript-level QTLs [15] contribute to complex traits, these analyses have not been performed on many earlier RNA-seq-based eQTL datasets....

...3 core [17] RNA-seq pipeline written in the Nextflow [18] framework and modified it to support the quantification of four different molecular phenotypes: gene expression, exon expression [19], transcript usage, and promoter, splicing and 3ʹ end usage events defined by txrevise [15] (Supplementary Figure 3)....

...Furthermore, to take advantage of our profiling of gene expression in overlapping set of donors in the stimulated and naive conditions, we also included the cell line as a random effect and fitted a linear mixed model using the lme4 (Bates et al., 2015) package....
