Integrative analysis of transcriptome-wide association study and gene expression profiling identifies candidate genes associated with stroke
Background Stroke is a major public health burden worldwide. Although genetic variation is known to play a role in the pathogenesis of stroke, the specific pathogenic mechanisms are still unclear. Transcriptome-wide association studies (TWAS) is a powerful approach to prioritize candidate risk genes...
