Genetic imputation of kidney transcriptome, proteome and multi-omics illuminates new blood pressure and hypertension targets
19 Mar 2024
Abstract excerpt
Genetic mechanisms of blood pressure (BP) regulation remain poorly defined. Using kidney-specific epigenomic annotations and 3D genome information we generated and validated gene expression prediction models for the purpose of transcriptome-wide association studies in 700 human kidneys. We identified 889 kidney genes associated with BP of which 399 were prioritised as contributors to BP regulation. Imputation of...
