Sub-cellular level resolution of common genetic variation in the photoreceptor layer identifies continuum between rare disease and common variation
2022-03-16
Abstract excerpt
Photoreceptor cells (PRCs) are the light-detecting cells of the retina. Such cells can be non-invasively imaged using optical coherence tomography (OCT) which is used in clinical settings to diagnose and monitor ocular diseases. Here we present the largest genome-wide association study of PRC morphology to date utilising quantitative phenotypes extracted from OCT images within the UK Biobank. We discovered 111 loc...
