Genetic drivers of protein changes over time: Findings, considerations, and approaches in TOPMed cohorts and UK Biobank

Age is a major risk factor for many diseases, but the biological processes driving aging are heterogeneous across individuals. Efforts to untangle differences between chronological and biological age have focused on identifying age-associated markers, such as ’omics clocks. Many ’omics features, including proteins, are...

Cross-cohort analysis of expression and splicing quantitative trait loci in TOPMed.

This work fine-mapped UK Biobank-derived genome-wide association study (GWAS) signals from 164 traits and identified e/sQTL colocalizations for 10,611 GWAS signals, including 7096 that colocalize with secondary e/sQTLs.
