Genetic control of fetal placental genomics contributes to development of health and disease

2021-04-14

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> As the master regulator in utero , the placenta is core to the Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD) hypothesis but is historically understudied. To identify placental gene-trait associations (GTAs) across the life course, we performed distal mediator-enriched transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) for 40 traits, integrating placental multi-omics from the Extremely Low Gestat...
