From GWAS to function: using functional genomics to identify the mechanisms underlying complex diseases
E Cano-Gamez, G Trynka - Frontiers in genetics, 2020 - frontiersin.org
Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have successfully mapped thousands of loci
associated with complex traits. These associations could reveal the molecular mechanisms …

The multiplex model of the genetics of Alzheimer's disease
Genes play a strong role in Alzheimer's disease (AD), with late-onset AD showing heritability
of 58–79% and early-onset AD showing over 90%. Genetic association provides a robust …

Epigenomic dissection of Alzheimer's disease pinpoints causal variants and reveals epigenome erosion
Recent work has identified dozens of non-coding loci for Alzheimer's disease (AD) risk, but
their mechanisms and AD transcriptional regulatory circuitry are poorly understood. Here …
