Pleiotropic genetic architecture and novel loci for C-reactive protein levels
Chronic inflammation and lipometabolism share many causal genes and possibly pathways. Here, the authors use a multi-trait GWAS approach to study shared genetic determinants of low-grade inflammation, measured by C-reactive protein (CRP), and closely linked lipid and metabolic pathways.
