A transcriptome-wide Mendelian randomization study to uncover tissue-dependent regulatory mechanisms across the human phenome
Gene expression and how genetic variants can influence gene expression are tissue-specific processes with important implications for phenotypes. Here, Richardson et al. use eQTL data from GTEx and the eQTLGen project in a two-sample SMR + HEIDI framework for causal inference of gene expression assoc...
