  1. Proteogenomic analysis of human cerebrospinal fluid identifies neurologically relevant regulation and implicates causal proteins for Alzheimer's disease

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 45 out of 100. Nature genetics 2024-11-11 Genetics

    The integration of quantitative trait loci (QTLs) with disease genome-wide association studies (GWASs) has proven successful in prioritizing candidate genes at disease-associated loci.

  2. Exploring the possible causal effects of cardiac blood biomarkers in dementia and cognitive performance: a Mendelian randomization study

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 71 out of 100. GeroScience 2023-05-13 Biomarkers

    Prospective cohort studies have implied associations between blood levels of troponin T, troponin I, NT-proBNP, GDF15, dementia, and cognitive function, without providing evidence favoring possible causality.

  3. Multi-ancestry eQTL meta-analysis of human brain identifies candidate causal variants for brain-related traits

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 71 out of 100. Nature genetics 2022-01-20 Genetics

    While large-scale, genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have identified hundreds of loci associated with brain-related traits, identification of the variants, genes and molecular mechanisms underlying these traits remains challenging.

  4. GWAS and ExWAS of blood mitochondrial DNA copy number identifies 71 loci and highlights a potential causal role in dementia

    ✓ Peer-reviewed alzhub usefulness score 52 out of 100. eLife 2022-01-13 Genetics

    Our genetic findings indicate that mtDNA-CN is a complex biomarker reflecting specific MT processes related to mtDNA regulation, and that these processes are causally related to human diseases.
