This study identifies three novel genetic signals associated with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis using GWAS and clinically-curated datasets, highlighting potential drug targets like MUC1 and NTN4.

This study performs GWAS of IPF using dominant and recessive models, identifying five new genome-wide significant signals and genes, including PMF1 and EPN3, and observing increased PMF1 expression in IPF patients.

This study identifies three genetic variants with sex-specific effects on IPF susceptibility but finds no significant difference in predictive accuracy of polygenic risk scores between males and females.
