Cell-type aware transcriptome-wide association study of mammographic density phenotypes

2025-11-27

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Mammographic density (MD) phenotypes are highly heritable and strongly associated with breast cancer risk. Genetic variants identified by genome-wide association studies (GWAS) explain only a small fraction of the heritability, and the responsible genes remain largely unknown. Transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) can improve power and identify genes associated with MD through their g...
