Identification of novel rare sequence variation underlying heritable pulmonary arterial hypertension
2017-09-06
Abstract excerpt
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare disorder with a poor prognosis. Deleterious variation within components of the transforming growth factor-β pathway, particularly the bone morphogenetic protein type 2 receptor ( BMPR2 ), underlie most heritable forms of PAH. Since the missing heritability likely involves genetic variation confined to small numbers of cases, we performed whole genome sequencing in 1...
