Genome-wide association study identifies 17 new loci influencing concentrations of circulating cytokines and growth factors

2016-03-25

Abstract excerpt

Circulating cytokines and growth factors are regulators of inflammation and have been implicated in autoimmune and metabolic diseases. In this genome-wide association study (GWAS) up to n=8,293 Finns we identified 27 loci with genome-wide association (P-value<1.2×10 -9 ) for one or more cytokines, including 17 unidentified in previous GWASes. Fifteen of the associated SNPs had expression quantitative trait loci i...
