Multi-ancestry meta-analysis of host genetic susceptibility to tuberculosis identifies shared genetic architecture

Multi-ancestry meta-analysis of host genetic susceptibility to tuberculosis identifies shared genetic architecture

The heritability of susceptibility to tuberculosis (TB) disease has been well recognized. Over 100 genes have been studied as candidates for TB susceptibility, and several variants were identified by genome-wide association studies (GWAS), but few replicate. We established the International Tubercul...
