Transcriptome-wide association study of multiple myeloma identifies candidate susceptibility genes

Abstract Background While genome-wide association studies (GWAS) of multiple myeloma (MM) have identified variants at 23 regions influencing risk, the genes underlying these associations are largely unknown. To identify candidate causal genes at these regions and search for novel risk regions, we pe...
