This study performs a cell-type-aware transcriptome-wide association study (TWAS) of mammographic density phenotypes, identifying novel genes and prioritizing known GWAS loci through cell-type-specific gene expression analysis.

This study uses exome sequencing to identify HELB as a novel susceptibility gene for non-high grade serous epithelial ovarian cancer, with a strong association found in genetic analyses.

This study examines the association between vitamin D-related gene variants and prostate cancer risk in Black men, finding no significant associations after adjustment but some suggestive results.

MiXcan performs cell-type-specific transcriptome-wide association studies, identifying more breast cancer susceptibility genes than conventional methods by considering cell-type heterogeneity.

This study combines genome-wide association data from four cancers to identify shared and novel genetic associations and pleiotropic effects.
