Highly significant associations between SNPs located in eQTLs and gene expression in various tissues have been established (such SNPs are referred to as expression SNPs, or eSNPs) [ 30 - 32 ].

The sentences
When testing for the main effect of each SNP, both show non-significant p-values: 1.5 × 10 -5 (rs1130199) and the marginally significant p-values 1.3 × 10 -7 (rs4253764). rs4253764 is located in an intron of PPARA (peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor alpha), while rs1130199 is in an exon near the 3' region of the CDC6 (cell division cycle) gene.
