Abstract excerpt
INTRODUCTION: Graves' disease (GD) is an autoimmune form of hyperthyroidism. We integrated GD GWAS summary statistics with immune-cell eQTLs to prioritize cell-type-specific genes with potential relevance to GD susceptibility. METHODS: We analyzed European-ancestry GD GWAS summary statistics from FinnGen Release 12 together with cis-eQTLs from 14 peripheral immune-cell subsets in the OneK1K single-cell resource...
