  • Genome-wide association study across five cohorts identifies five novel loci associated with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 35688625

    ABSTRACT: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a chronic lung condition with poor survival times. We previously published a genome-wide meta-analysis of IPF risk across three studies with independent replication of associated variants in two additional studies. To maximise power and to generate more accurate effect size estimates, we performed a genome-wide meta-analysis across all five studies included in the previous IPF risk GWAS. We utilised the distribution of effect sizes across the five studies to assess the replicability of the results and identified five robust novel genetic association signals implicating mTOR signalling, telomere maintenance and spindle assembly genes in IPF risk.
