Transcriptome-wide Mendelian randomization study prioritising novel tissue-dependent genes for glioma susceptibility
Abstract Genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have discovered 27 loci associated with glioma risk. Whether these loci are causally implicated in glioma risk, and how risk differs across tissues, has yet to be systematically explored. We integrated multi-tissue expression quantitative trait loci (e...
