Mapping the proteo-genomic convergence of human diseases - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 34648354
ABSTRACT: Characterization of the genetic regulation of proteins is essential for understanding disease etiology and developing therapies. We identified 10,674 genetic associations for 3,892 plasma proteins to create a cis-anchored gene-protein-disease map of 1,859 connections that highlights strong cross-disease biological convergence. This proteo-genomic map provides a framework to 1) connect etiologically related diseases, 2) provide biological context for new or emerging disorders, and 3) integrate different biological domains to establish mechanisms for known gene-disease links. Our results identify proteo-genomic connections within and between diseases and establish the value of cis-protein variants for annotation of likely causal disease genes at GWAS loci, addressing a major barrie

Clonal Hematopoiesis Mutations in Patients with Lung Cancer Are Associated with Lung Cancer Risk Factors - Unknown journal (n.d.) · Unknown authors · PubMed 34815255
ABSTRACT: Analysis of whole-exome sequencing data uncovers correlations between clonal hematopoiesis and lung cancer risk factors, identifies genetic variants correlated with clonal hematopoiesis, and highlights hundreds of potential novel clonal hematopoiesis mutations. Abstract Clonal hematopoiesis (CH) is a phenomenon caused by expansion of white blood cells descended from a single hematopoietic stem cell. While CH can be associated with leukemia and some solid tumors, the relationship between CH and lung cancer remains largely unknown. To help clarify this relationship, we analyzed whole-exome sequencing (WES) data from 1,958 lung cancer cases and controls. Potential CH mutations were identified by a set of hierarchical filtering criteria in different exonic regions, and the associatio
