A large-scale transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) of ten blood cell phenotypes reveals complexities of TWAS fine-mapping [PDF]
, 2021 Abstract Hematological measures are important intermediate clinical phenotypes for many acute and chronic diseases. Hematological measures are highly heritable, and although genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified thousands of loci containing trait-associated variants, the causal genes underlying these ...Amanda L Tapia, Bryce T Rowland, Jonathan D Rosen, Michael Preuss, Kris Young, Misa Graff, Hélène Choquet, David J Couper, Steve Buyske, Stephanie A Bien, Eric Jorgenson, Charles Kooperberg, Ruth J.F.

, 2018 Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified over 100 risk loci for schizophrenia, but the causal mechanisms remain largely unknown. We performed a transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) integrating a schizophrenia GWAS of 79,845 ...Hyejung Won, Pasaniuc, Bogdan, Finucane, Hilary K., Geschwind, Daniel H., Katsanis, Nicholas, O'Donovan, Michael C., Kousi, Maria, Gusev, Alexander, Bogdan Pasaniuc, Sullivan, Patrick F., Yakir Reshef, Alkes L.

Gut Pathogens, 2021 Background Gut microbiota is closely associated with host health and disease occurrence. Host genetic factor plays an important role in shaping gut microbial communities.Chuyu Pan, Yujie Ning, Yumeng Jia, Shiqiang Cheng, Yan Wen, Xuena Yang, Peilin Meng, Chun’e Li, Huijie Zhang, Yujing Chen, Jingxi Zhang, Zhen Zhang, Feng Zhang +12 moredoaj +1 more sourceDissecting the genetic heterogeneity of gastric cancerResearch in context
EBioMedicine, 2023 Summary: Background: Gastric cancer (GC) is clinically heterogenous according to location (cardia/non-cardia) and histopathology (diffuse/intestinal). We aimed to characterize the genetic risk architecture of GC according to its subtypes.Timo Hess, Carlo Maj, Jan Gehlen, Oleg Borisov, Stephan L.

Alzheimer's & Dementia, 2020 AbstractBackgroundAlzheimer’s disease (AD), an incurable neurodegenerative disease, currently affects 1.75% of the United States population, with projected growth to 3.46% by 2050. Common genetic variation linked transcript expression differences which confer AD‐risk isl necessary to elucidate AD mechanism and develop therapeutic interventions.Jake Gockley, Kelsey S.

Nature Communications, 2023 Conventional transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) approaches predict genetically regulated gene expression at the tissue level. Here, the authors develop a framework for cell-type-aware TWAS that predicts cell-type level expression from genotype ...Xiaoyu Song, Jiayi Ji, Joseph H. Rothstein, Stacey E. Alexeeff, Lori C.

Breast Cancer Research, 2022 Background Mammographic density (MD) phenotypes, including percent density (PMD), area of dense tissue (DA), and area of non-dense tissue (NDA), are associated with breast cancer risk. Twin studies suggest that MD phenotypes are highly heritable. However,Hongjie Chen, Shaoqi Fan, Jennifer Stone, Deborah J. Thompson, Julie Douglas, Shuai Li, Christopher Scott, Manjeet K.
