Abstract excerpt
Maternal genome influences associate with up to 40% of spontaneous preterm births (PTB). Multiple genome wide association studies (GWAS) have been completed to identify genetic variants associated with PTB. Disappointingly, no highly significant SNPs have replicated in independent cohorts so far. We developed an approach combining protein-protein interaction (PPI) network data with tissue specific gene expression...
