Genome-wide association study meta-analysis supports association between MUC1 and ectopic pregnancy
2022-10-31
Abstract excerpt
Ectopic pregnancy is an important cause of maternal morbidity and mortality worldwide. To better understand the genetic risk factors underlying this pregnancy complication, we conduct a GWAS meta-analysis and identify two genome-wide significant loci on chromosomes 1 (rs4971091, p=5.32×10 −9 ) and 10 (rs11598956, p=2.41×10 −8 ). Follow-up analyses propose MUC1, an epithelial glycoprotein with an important role in...
