TWAS revealed significant causal loci for milk production and its composition in Murrah buffaloes

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Milk yield is the most complex trait in dairy animals, and mapping all causal variants even with smallest effect sizes has been difficult with the genome-wide association study (GWAS) sample sizes available in geographical regions with small livestock ...

Brain Proteome-Wide Association Study Identifies Candidate Genes that Regulate Protein Abundance Associated with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

open access: yes, 2022
Although previous genome-wide association studies (GWASs) on post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) have identified multiple risk loci, how these loci confer risk of PTSD remains unclear. Through the FUSION pipeline, we integrated two human brain proteome

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-wide association study of coronary artery disease identifies novel susceptibility genes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The majority of risk loci identified by genome-wide association studies (GWAS) are in non-coding regions, hampering their functional interpretation. Instead, transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) identify gene-trait associations, which can be ...

Cross-population Transcriptome Prediction Models for Transcriptome-Wide Association Studies in Diverse Populations

open access: yes, 2022
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have been utilized to find associations between single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) and traits. However, most GWAS are conducted on populations of European ancestries. Further analysis involving the transcriptome

Identifying celiac disease-related chemicals by transcriptome-wide association study and chemical-gene interaction analyses

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Celiac disease (CeD) is one of the most common intestinal inflammatory diseases, and its incidence and prevalence have increased over time. CeD affects multiple organs and systems in the body, and environmental factors play a key role in its complex ...

Controlling bias and inflation in epigenome- and transcriptome-wide association studies using the empirical null distribution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We show that epigenome- and transcriptome-wide association studies (EWAS and TWAS) are prone to significant inflation and bias of test statistics, an unrecognized phenomenon introducing spurious findings if left unaddressed.
