GWAS-Informed data integration and non-coding CRISPRi screen illuminate genetic etiology of bone mineral density
2024-03-20
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Over 1,100 independent signals have been identified with genome-wide association studies (GWAS) for bone mineral density (BMD), a key risk factor for mortality-increasing fragility fractures; however, the effector gene(s) for most remain unknown. Informed by a variant-to-gene mapping strategy implicating 89 non-coding elements predicted to regulate osteoblast gene expression at BMD GWAS loci, we...
