A proteome-wide association study identifies putative causal proteins for breast cancer risk. [PDF]

open access: yesBr J Cancer
Abstract Background Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 200 breast cancer risk-associated genetic loci, yet the causal genes and biological mechanisms for most loci remain elusive. Proteins, as final gene products, are pivotal in cellular function.

Enhancing nonlinear transcriptome- and proteome-wide association studies via trait imputation with applications to Alzheimer's disease.

open access: yesPLOS Genetics
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) performed on large cohort and biobank datasets have identified many genetic loci associated with Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the younger demographic of biobank participants relative to the typical age of late-

Identifying causal genes for stroke via integrating the proteome and transcriptome from brain and blood

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2022
Background Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have revealed numerous loci associated with stroke. However, the underlying mechanisms at these loci in the pathogenesis of stroke and effective stroke drug targets are elusive.

Identifying causal genes for migraine by integrating the proteome and transcriptome

open access: yesThe Journal of Headache and Pain, 2023
Background While previous genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified multiple risk variants for migraine, there is a lack of evidence about how these variants contribute to the development of migraine.

Transcriptome- and proteome-wide association studies nominate determinants of kidney function and damage

open access: yesGenome Biology, 2023
AbstractBackgroundThe pathophysiological causes of kidney disease are not fully understood. Here we show that the integration of genome-wide genetic, transcriptomic, and proteomic association studies can nominate causal determinants of kidney function and damage.ResultsThrough transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) in kidney cortex, kidney ...

Plasma proteome analyses in individuals of European and African ancestry identify cis-pQTLs and models for proteome-wide association studies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Improved understanding of genetic regulation of proteome can facilitate the identification of causal mechanisms for complex traits. We analyzed data on 4,657 plasma proteins from 7,213 European American (EA) and 1,871 African American (AA) individuals ...

Integrative analysis of transcriptome and proteome wide association studies prioritized functional genes for obesity

open access: yesHuman Genetics, 2023
Abstract Background Genome-wide association studies have identified dozens of genomic loci for obesity. However, functional genes and their detailed genetic mechanisms underlying these loci are mainly unknown. In this study, we conducted an integrative study to prioritize plausibly functional genes by combining information from genome ...

PWAS: Proteome-Wide Association Study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Abstract Over the last two decades, GWAS (Genome-Wide Association Study) has become a canonical tool for exploratory genetic research, generating countless gene-phenotype associations. Despite its accomplishments, several limitations and drawbacks still hinder its success, including low statistical power and obscurity about the ...

A genome-wide association study identifies protein quantitative trait loci (pQTLs) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
There is considerable evidence that human genetic variation influences gene expression. Genome-wide studies have revealed that mRNA levels are associated with genetic variation in or close to the gene coding for those mRNA transcripts - cis effects, and ...
