Replication in Genome-Wide Association Studies

open access: yesStatistical Science, 2009
Replication helps ensure that a genotype-phenotype association observed in a genome-wide association (GWA) study represents a credible association and is not a chance finding or an artifact due to uncontrolled biases. We discuss prerequisites for exact replication, issues of heterogeneity, advantages and disadvantages of different methods of data ...

Genome-Wide Association Studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Over the last twenty years, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have revealed a great deal about the genetic basis of a wide range of complex diseases and they will undoubtedly continue to have a broad impact as we move to an era of personalised medicine.

Genome-Wide Association Study and Pathway-Level Analysis of Kernel Color in Maize. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Rapid development and adoption of biofortified, provitamin A-dense orange maize (Zea mays L.) varieties could be facilitated by a greater understanding of the natural variation underlying kernel color, including as it relates to carotenoid biosynthesis ...

Genome-Wide Association Study Identifies Loci for Liver Enzyme Concentrations in Mexican Americans: The GUARDIAN Consortium. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
ObjectivePopulations of Mexican American ancestry are at an increased risk for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. The objective of this study was to determine whether loci in known and novel genes were associated with variation in aspartate ...

Genome-wide association study of primary tooth eruption identifies pleiotropic loci associated with height and craniofacial distances [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Twin and family studies indicate that the timing of primary tooth eruption is highly heritable, with estimates typically exceeding 80%. To identify variants involved in primary tooth eruption we performed a population based genome-wide association study ...

Genetic associations with childhood brain growth, defined in two longitudinal cohorts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) are unraveling the genetics of adult brain neuroanatomy as measured by cross-sectional anatomic magnetic resonance imaging (aMRI). However, the genetic mechanisms that shape childhood brain development are, as yet,

Rheumatoid Arthritis Naive T Cells Share Hypermethylation Sites With Synoviocytes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
ObjectiveTo determine whether differentially methylated CpGs in synovium-derived fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) were also differentially methylated in RA peripheral blood (PB) samples.MethodsFor this study ...

HDAC9 is implicated in atherosclerotic aortic calcification and affects vascular smooth muscle cell phenotype. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Aortic calcification is an important independent predictor of future cardiovascular events. We performed a genome-wide association meta-analysis to determine SNPs associated with the extent of abdominal aortic calcification (n = 9,417) or descending ...

Multicentric Genome-Wide Association Study for Primary Spontaneous Pneumothorax [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Despite elevated incidence and recurrence rates for Primary Spontaneous Pneumothorax (PSP), little is known about its etiology, and the genetics of idiopathic PSP remains unexplored.

Progress of genome wide association study in domestic animals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Domestic animals are invaluable resources for study of the molecular architecture of complex traits. Although the mapping of quantitative trait loci (QTL) responsible for economically important traits in domestic animals has achieved remarkable results ...
