A microRNA Transcriptome-wide Association Study of Prostate Cancer Risk

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Large genome-wide association studies have identified hundreds of single-nucleotide polymorphisms associated with increased risk of prostate cancer (PrCa), and many of these risk loci is presumed to confer regulatory effects on gene expression. While eQTL studies of long RNAs has yielded many potential risk genes, the relationship between PrCa risk ...

Assigning function to genome wide association study variants associated with complex gastrointestinal disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
PhDThe genome‐wide association study era has identified numerous loci associated with many common polygenic diseases. The next challenge is to identify the functional consequences of these variants and elicit how they impact on disease risk.

Cross-tissue transcriptome-wide association studies identify susceptibility genes shared between schizophrenia and inflammatory bowel disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Genetic correlations and an increased incidence of psychiatric disorders in inflammatory-bowel disease have been reported, but shared molecular mechanisms are unknown. We performed cross-tissue and multiple-gene conditioned transcriptome-wide association

Transcriptome-wide association studies: opportunities and challenges [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) integrate GWAS and gene expression datasets to find gene-trait associations. In this Perspective, we explore properties of TWAS as a potential approach to prioritize causal genes, using simulations and case studies of literature-curated candidate causal genes for schizophrenia, LDL cholesterol and Crohn’s ...

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

open access: yesHuman 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
