Integrative genomics analysis identifies <i>ACVR1B</i> as a candidate causal gene of emphysema distribution in non-alpha 1-antitrypsin deficient smokers

2017-09-22

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Several genetic risk loci associated with emphysema apico-basal distribution (EABD) have been identified through genome-wide association studies (GWAS), but the biological functions of these variants are unknown. To characterize gene regulatory functions of EABD-associated variants, we integrated EABD GWAS results with 1) a multi-tissue panel of expression quantitative trait...
