Abstract excerpt
Thyroid dysfunction is a common endocrine disease measured by thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) level. Although >70 genetic loci associated with TSH have been reported through genome-wide association studies (GWASs), the variants can only explain a small fraction of the thyroid function heritability. To identify novel candidate genes for thyroid function, we conducted the first large-scale transcriptome-wide...
