Genetics: An integrated genetic analysis of disease

Genetics: An integrated genetic analysis of diseaseGenetics: An integrated genetic analysis of disease, Published online: 09 April 2018; doi:10.1038/nrneph.2018.26A genome-wide association study (GWAS) of quantitative traits that incorporated data from GWAS of complex diseases provides clues regarding the relationships between genetic loci, intermediate phenotypes and diseases. Together, the data demonstrate pleiotropy, genetic correlation and cell-type specificity of quantitative traits as predictors of multiple complex diseases.
