Variable expression quantitative trait loci analysis of breast cancer risk variants

2020-03-25

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Genome wide association studies (GWAS) have identified more than 180 variants associated with breast cancer risk, however the underlying functional mechanisms and biological pathways which confer disease susceptibility remain largely unknown. As gene expression traits are under genetic regulation we hypothesise that differences in gene expression variability may identify causal breast cancer sus...
