Transcriptome-wide association study of multiple myeloma identifies candidate susceptibility genes

Human Genomics, 2019
Background While genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of multiple myeloma (MM) have identified variants at 23 regions influencing risk, the genes underlying these associations are largely unknown. To identify candidate causal genes at these regions and

Genome-wide association studies in mice [PDF]

Nature Reviews Genetics, 2012
Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have transformed the field of human genetics and have led to the discovery of hundreds of genes that are implicated in human disease. The technological advances that drove this revolution are now poised to transform genetic studies in model organisms, including mice.

Data mining and machine learning approaches for the integration of genome-wide association and methylation data: methodology and main conclusions from GAW20

BMC Genetics, 2018
Background Multiple layers of genetic and epigenetic variability are being simultaneously explored in an increasing number of health studies. We summarize here different approaches applied in the Data Mining and Machine Learning group at the GAW20 to ...

A genome‐wide association study of the frailty index highlights brain pathways in ageing

Aging Cell, 2021
Frailty is a common geriatric syndrome and strongly associated with disability, mortality and hospitalization. Frailty is commonly measured using the frailty index (FI), based on the accumulation of a number of health deficits during the life course. The

Genome-wide association studies in Plasmodiumspecies [PDF]

BMC Biology, 2010
Abstract Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) look for correlations between traits of interest and genetic markers spread throughout the genome. A recent study in BMC Genetics has found that populations of the malaria parasite Plasmodium vivax should be amenable to GWAS searching for a genetic basis of parasite pathogenicity.

Genome-Wide Association Study of Motor Coordination [PDF]

Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2021
The ability to finely control our movement is key to achieving many of the educational milestones and life-skills we develop throughout our lives. Despite the centrality of coordination to early development, there is a vast gap in our understanding of the underlying biology.

Meta-Analysis of Genome-Wide Linkage Studies in Celiac Disease. [PDF]

, 2009
OBJECTIVE: A meta-analysis of genome-wide linkage studies allows us to summarize the extensive information available from family-based studies, as the field moves into genome-wide association studies. METHODS: Here we apply the genome scan meta-analysis
