scoreInvHap: Inversion genotyping for genome-wide association studies.

PLoS genetics

Ruiz-Arenas C, Cáceres A, López-Sánchez M, Tolosana I, Pérez-Jurado L, González JR.
PMID: 31269027
PLoS Genet. 2019 Jul 03;15(7):e1008203. doi: 10.1371/journal.pgen.1008203. eCollection 2019 Jul.

Polymorphic inversions contribute to adaptation and phenotypic variation. However, large multi-centric association studies of inversions remain challenging. We present scoreInvHap, a method to genotype inversions from SNP data for genome-wide association studies (GWASs), overcoming important limitations of current methods...

Multi-omics study for interpretation of genome-wide association study.

Journal of human genetics

Akiyama M.
PMID: 32948838
J Hum Genet. 2021 Jan;66(1):3-10. doi: 10.1038/s10038-020-00842-5. Epub 2020 Sep 18.

Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified thousands of genetic loci associated with complex traits, including a wide variety of diseases. Despite the successful identification of associated loci, interpreting GWAS findings remains challenging and requires other biological resources. Omics, including...

The fog of genetics: what is known, unknown and unknowable in the genetics of complex traits and diseases.

EMBO reports

de Magalhães JP, Wang J.
PMID: 31633864
EMBO Rep. 2019 Nov 05;20(11):e48054. doi: 10.15252/embr.201948054. Epub 2019 Oct 21.

A major task for genetics is searching for genetic variants associated with disease. But we may well be missing a large number of "unknown unknown" alleles in the "fog of genetics".

Clinical use of current polygenic risk scores may exacerbate health disparities.

Nature genetics

Martin AR, Kanai M, Kamatani Y, Okada Y, Neale BM, Daly MJ.
PMID: 30926966
Nat Genet. 2019 Apr;51(4):584-591. doi: 10.1038/s41588-019-0379-x. Epub 2019 Mar 29.

Polygenic risk scores (PRS) are poised to improve biomedical outcomes via precision medicine. However, the major ethical and scientific challenge surrounding clinical implementation of PRS is that those available today are several times more accurate in individuals of European...

Towards practical privacy-preserving genome-wide association study.

BMC bioinformatics

Bonte C, Makri E, Ardeshirdavani A, Simm J, Moreau Y, Vercauteren F.
PMID: 30572817
BMC Bioinformatics. 2018 Dec 20;19(1):537. doi: 10.1186/s12859-018-2541-3.

BACKGROUND: The deployment of Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) requires genomic information of a large population to produce reliable results. This raises significant privacy concerns, making people hesitate to contribute their genetic information to such studies.RESULTS: We propose two provably...

Genetic background and transplantation outcomes: insights from genome-wide association studies.

Current opinion in organ transplantation

Zanoni F, Kiryluk K.
PMID: 31815792
Curr Opin Organ Transplant. 2020 Feb;25(1):35-41. doi: 10.1097/MOT.0000000000000718.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The current review summarizes recent advances in the genetic studies of transplantation outcomes, including new genome-wide association studies for acute rejection, allograft survival, pharmacogenomics, and common transplant comorbidities.RECENT FINDINGS: Genetic studies of kidney transplantation outcomes have...

A current snapshot of common genomic variants contribution in psychiatric disorders.

American journal of medical genetics. Part B, Neuropsychiatric genetics : the official publication of the International Society of Psychiatric Genetics

Santoro ML, Moretti PN, Pellegrino R, Gadelha A, Abílio VC, Hayashi MA, Belangero SI, Hakonarson H.
PMID: 27486013
Am J Med Genet B Neuropsychiatr Genet. 2016 Dec;171(8):997-1005. doi: 10.1002/ajmg.b.32475. Epub 2016 Aug 03.

In the past decade, numerous advances were achieved in psychiatric genetics. Particularly, the genome wide association studies (GWAS) have contributed to uncovering new genes and pathways associated to psychiatric disorders (PDs). At the same time, with increasing sample sizes...

FOLD: a method to optimize power in meta-analysis of genetic association studies with overlapping subjects.

Bioinformatics (Oxford, England)

Kim EE, Lee S, Lee CH, Oh H, Song K, Han B.
PMID: 29036405
Bioinformatics. 2017 Dec 15;33(24):3947-3954. doi: 10.1093/bioinformatics/btx463.

MOTIVATION: In genetic association studies, meta-analyses are widely used to increase the statistical power by aggregating information from multiple studies. In meta-analyses, participating studies often share the same individuals due to the shared use of publicly available control data...

Using DIVAN to assess disease/trait-associated single nucleotide variants in genome-wide scale.

BMC research notes

Chen L, Qin ZS.
PMID: 29084591
BMC Res Notes. 2017 Oct 30;10(1):530. doi: 10.1186/s13104-017-2851-y.

OBJECTIVE: The majority of sequence variants identified by Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) fall outside of the protein-coding regions. Unlike coding variants, it is challenging to connect these noncoding variants to the pathophysiology of complex diseases/traits due to the lack...

OligoPVP: Phenotype-driven analysis of individual genomic information to prioritize oligogenic disease variants.
