scPrediXcan integrates deep learning methods and single-cell data into a cell-type-specific transcriptome-wide association study framework

open access: yesCell Genomics
Summary: Transcriptome-wide association studies (TWASs) help identify disease-causing genes but often fail to pinpoint disease mechanisms at the cellular level because of the limited sample sizes and sparsity of cell-type-specific expression data.

TWAS-CTL: A robust and efficient method for multi-tissue transcriptome-wide association studies using cross-tissue learners

open access: yes
Abstract The advent of transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) has expanded the classical genome-wide association study (GWAS) framework by integrating gene expression with genetic variation to identify trait-associated variants.

Integrative analysis of Transcriptome-wide and Proteome-wide association study for non-Mendelian disorders

open access: yes
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have uncovered numerous variants linked to a wide range of complex traits. However, understanding the mechanisms underlying these associations remains a challenge.

Genome-Wide Association Study Identifies Candidate Genes for Body Size Traits in Wanyue Black Pigs

open access: yesAnimals
This study aimed to elucidate the genetic basis of body-size-related traits in Wanyue Black pigs, including body length, chest circumference, forearm circumference, and hip circumference. Phenotypic data were collected from 139 four-month-old female pigs,

Transcriptome-wide association studies: opportunities and challenges

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 ...

Transcriptome-wide association study of breast cancer risk by estrogen-receptor status.

open access: yes, 2020
Previous transcriptome‐wide association studies (TWAS) have identified breast cancer risk genes by integrating data from expression quantitative loci and genome‐wide association studies (GWAS), but analyses of breast cancer subtype‐specific associations ...

Transcriptome-wide association studies associated with Crohn’s disease: challenges and perspectives

open access: yesCell & Bioscience
Crohn’s disease (CD) is regarded as a lifelong progressive disease affecting all segments of the intestinal tract and multiple organs. Based on genome-wide association studies (GWAS) and gene expression data, transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS)
