XingyiGuo/transTF-TWAS: TransTF-TWAS
<p>Transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) have been successful in identifying disease susceptibility genes by integrating cis-variants predicted gene expression with genome-wide association studies (GWAS) data, while trans-located variants ...

Integrative Analysis Uncover the Effects and Multi‐Omics Features of Thigh Muscle Fat Infiltration
Thigh muscle fat infiltration (TMFI), estimated from MRI, is associated with increased mortality and diseases affecting multiple organ systems and mediates the effects of lifestyle factors on health. Multi‐omics analyses delineate the genetic, cellular, transcriptional, proteomic, and metabolic architecture of TMFI.

Population-Matched Transcriptome Prediction Increases Discovery and Replication Rate in TWAS [PDF]
Most genome-wide and transcriptome-wide association studies (GWAS, TWAS) focus on European populations; however, these results cannot always be accurately applied to non-European populations due to differences in genetic architecture.

Summary: Transcriptome-wide association studies (TWASs) are powerful for identifying gene-trait associations by integrating gene expression and genome-wide association data, but findings may be impacted by the choice of gene expression reference.

Environmental Association Analyses in Plants and the Influence of Methodological Decisions
ABSTRACT Climate change is predicted to impact existing ecological systems, leading to a requirement to improve our understanding of environmental adaptation in plants, particularly for conservation and the development of environmentally tolerant crop varieties.

SUMMARY Traditional genotype‐to‐phenotype models depend heavily on direct mappings that achieve only modest accuracy, forcing breeders to conduct large, costly field trials to maintain or marginally improve genetic gain. Models that incorporate intermediate molecular phenotypes can achieve higher predictive fit, but remain impractical since such data ...

Genetic architecture of the limbic white matter microstructure in aging and Alzheimer's Disease
Abstract INTRODUCTION Limbic white matter (WM) abnormalities are prevalent in aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD), but genetic drivers are unclear. METHODS In 2614 older adults (mean age ± SD: 73.7 ± 9.8 years; 26% cognitively impaired) from seven harmonized cohorts enriched for cognitive impairment, we quantified free‐water–corrected diffusion MRI ...

ABSTRACT Background Schizophrenia is a psychiatric disorder characterized by a wide range of symptoms and a complex interplay between genetic and environmental factors. Despite advances in genomics, the genetic underpinnings of SC and its relationship with drug use remain poorly understood.
