Journal ArticleDOI

Whole-genome sequencing identifies EN1 as a determinant of bone density and fracture.

Hou-Feng Zheng, +174 more
- 01 Oct 2015 - 
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that low‐frequency non‐coding variants have large effects on BMD and fracture, thereby providing rationale for whole‐genome sequencing and improved imputation reference panels to study the genetic architecture of complex traits and disease in the general population.
Journal ArticleDOI

Transcriptome-scale spatial gene expression in the human dorsolateral prefrontal cortex.

TL;DR: This article used the 10x Genomics Visium platform to define the spatial topography of gene expression in the six-layered human dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and identified extensive layer-enriched expression signatures and refined associations to previous laminar markers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Genome Analyses of >200,000 Individuals Identify 58 Loci for Chronic Inflammation and Highlight Pathways that Link Inflammation and Complex Disorders.

Symen Ligthart, +286 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors performed two genome-wide association studies (GWASs), on HapMap and 1000 Genomes imputed data, of circulating amounts of CRP by using data from 88 studies comprising 204,402 European individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Loci associated with ischaemic stroke and its subtypes (SiGN) : A genome-wide association study

Sara L. Pulit, +202 more
- 01 Feb 2016 - 
TL;DR: A novel locus (G allele at rs12122341) at 1p13.2 near TSPAN2 that was associated with large artery atherosclerosis-related stroke was identified and supported robust associations with ischaemic stroke for four other loci that have been reported in previous studies.
