Multi-omics integration reveals molecular networks and regulators of psoriasis. [PDF]
BackgroundPsoriasis is a complex multi-factorial disease, involving both genetic susceptibilities and environmental triggers. Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and epigenome-wide association studies (EWAS) have been carried out to identify genetic ...

A Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS) for Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: Twin studies suggest that heritability of moderate-severe bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) is 53% to 79%, we conducted a genome-wide association study (GWAS) to identify genetic variants associated with the risk for BPD.

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

Identification of a novel prostate cancer susceptibility variant in the KLK3 gene transcript [PDF]
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 30 prostate cancer (PrCa) susceptibility loci. One of these (rs2735839) is located close to a plausible candidate susceptibility gene, KLK3, which encodes prostate-specific antigen (PSA)
