Network and pathway expansion of genetic disease associations identifies successful drug targets.

Abstract excerpt

Genetic evidence of disease association has often been used as a basis for selecting of drug targets for complex common diseases. Likewise, the propagation of genetic evidence through gene or protein interaction networks has been shown to accurately infer novel disease associations at genes for which no direct genetic evidence can be observed. However, an empirical test of the utility of combining these...
