Network and pathway expansion of genetic disease associations identifies successful drug targets

2020-04-23

Abstract excerpt

It is widely accepted that genetic evidence of disease association acts as a sound basis for the selection of drug targets for complex common diseases and that propagation of genetic evidence through gene or protein interaction networks can accurately infer novel disease associations at genes for which no direct genetic evidence can be observed. However, an empirical test of the utility of combining these beliefs...
