RNA sequencing identifies novel non-coding RNA and exon-specific effects associated with cigarette smoking

Abstract Background Cigarette smoking is the leading modifiable risk factor for disease and death worldwide. Previous studies quantifying gene-level expression have documented the effect of smoking on mRNA levels. Using RNA sequencing, it is possible to analyze the impact of smoking on complex regul...
