The genetic determinants of plasma protein variance across ancestries and effects on cardiometabolic disease risk
2025-11-21
Abstract excerpt
Variance quantitative trait loci (vQTLs), which capture genetic contributions to phenotypic variability, remain underexplored in proteomic studies, particularly across diverse ancestries. We systematically mapped cis -vQTLs for 2,923 plasma proteins in 52,706 UK Biobank participants of European (EUR, N = 45,486), African (AFR, N = 1,336), and Central/South Asian (CSA, N = 934) ancestries, identifying 2,162 vQT...
