    ABSTRACT: Sarcoidosis is a complex inflammatory disease with a strong genetic component. Here, we perform a genome-wide association study in 9755 sarcoidosis cases to identify risk loci and map associated genes. We then use transcriptome-wide association studies and enrichment analyses to explore pathways involved in sarcoidosis and use Mendelian randomization to examine associations with modifiable factors and circulating biomarkers. We identify 28 genomic loci associated with sarcoidosis, with the C1orf141-IL23R locus showing the largest effect size. We observe gene expression patterns related to sarcoidosis in the spleen, whole blood, and lung, and highlight 75 tissue-specific genes through transcriptome-wide association studies. Furthermore, we use enrichment analysis to establish key
